WebTE: MDA transformation engine for Web applications

Abstract

Transformations are of crucial importance for the success of Model-Driven Web Engineering (MDWE) approaches. Therefore, we need transformation engines to improve and obtain the results of the different approaches. However, very few model-driven Web approaches provide a transformation tool which would allow them to obtain an implementation from their models. In this paper, we present a tool called WebTE (WebSA Transformation Engine) which is able to introduce all the input artefacts of the WebSA approach and to establish a refining process based on model-to-model and model-to-text transformations which gives us the final implementation of a Web application. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
