Abstract
This paper describes an MDD process that enhances the architectural design phase by closing the gap between ADLs and the notations used at the detailed design phase. We have defined model-to-model transformation rules to automatically generate either aspect-oriented or object-oriented UML 2.0 models from high-level architectural specifications specified using AO-ADL. These rules have been integrated in the AO-ADL Tool Suite, providing support to automatically generate a skeleton of the detailed design that preserves the crosscutting and the non-crosscutting functionalities identified at the architecture level.
