Open source MDD & MDD Software

Acceleo

Acceleo is a code generator transforming models into code (MDA approach).

Acceleo is easy to use. It provides "off the shelf" generators (JEE, .Net, Php...) and template editors for Eclipse.

openArchitectureWare (oAW)

openArchitectureWare (oAW) is a modular MDA/MDD generator framework implemented in Java(TM). It supports parsing of arbitrary models, and a language family to check and transform models as well as generate code based on them. Supporting editors are based on the Eclipse platform. OAW has strong support for EMF (Eclipse Modelling Framework).

Umbrello

Umbrello UML Modeller is a Unified Modelling Language diagram programme for KDE. UML allows you to create diagrams of software and other systems in a standard format. Our handbook gives a good introduction to Umbrello and UML modelling.

StarUML

StarUML is an open source project to develop fast, flexible, extensible, featureful, and freely-available UML/MDA platform running on Win32 platform. The goal of the StarUML project is to build a software modeling tool and also platform that is a compelling replacement of commercial UML tools such as Rational Rose, Together and so on.

AndroMDA

AndroMDA (pronounced: andromeda) is an open source code generation framework that follows the model driven architecture (MDA) paradigm. It takes a UML model from a CASE-tool and generates classes and deployable components (J2EE or other), specific for your application architecture.

OpenMDX

openMDX is the leading open source MDA platform based on the Object Management Group’s Model Driven Architecture standards. openMDX supports J2SE, J2EE, and .NET.
openMDX enables software architects and developers to build and integrate software applications in a highly automated and industrialized way.

TopCased

An open source initiative that develops metamodelling and modelling tools. It is based on Eclipse EMF, GMF, and UML2.

Apollon

Generation engine able to build graphical user interfaces (GUI) from DTDs and customization models. This makes the GUIs adapted to the edition of XML documents.

ModFact

(Model Factory) is a Tool Box for the MDA(TM) (Model Driven Architecture)
