Domain-specific modeling as an enabling technology for small and medium-sized enterprises

Published:17 October 2010Publication History

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we present experiences and the outcomes of applying domain-specific modeling techniques to the domain of diagnostic systems within an industry project. The purpose of the project was to develop a diagnostic system that is easy to configure to different facilities without a deeper knowledge of software development. Although the project was relatively small, we will show that the use of domain-specific technologies proved to be of value, was superior to traditional approaches, and turned out to be a key enabling technology in the project.
