Domain-Specific Modelling and Model Transformation to support Collaborative Work on Android

Android is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware and key applications. The Android SDK provides the tools and APIs to develop applications that run on Android-powered devices such as the HTC Magic smartphone.

Domain-Specific Modelling (DSM) and Model Transformation (MT) have the potential to support rapid development and synthesis of new applications on Android.

This thesis investigates the power and limitations of DSM and MT. The focus of this work is on the support of collaborative work on the Android Platform. The metaDepth meta-modelling framework and tool will be used. This work will be carried out in collaboration with Prof. Juan de Lara, the author of metaDepth.
