Design of code template for automatic code generation of heterogeneous smartphone application

Abstract

Development of heterogeneous application becomes an issue recently as of the diversification of smartphone platform. It is possible to develop heterogeneous smartphone application when using the e-MDD (Embedded Model Driven Development). While e-MDD is divided into Model-to-Model and Model-to-Text transformations, we have been converting target independent model to the target dependent model using the Model-to-Model transformation in the past. This paper is regarding the creation of code for target dependent model mentioned in the above using the Model-to-Text transformation. Template-based approach has been used for the creation of code. Code template has been made for Windows Mobil and Android as an example of application, and the code was created using Acceleo. © 2011 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
