Model-Driven Architecture
Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) is a software design approach that focuses on creating models to represent the structure and behavior of a system. It emphasizes the use of high-level abstractions, allowing developers to design systems using visual models rather than low-level code. This helps in understanding complex systems and facilitates communication among stakeholders.
MDA promotes the use of Unified Modeling Language (UML) to create these models, which can be transformed into executable code through automated tools. By separating the specification of a system from its implementation, MDA enhances flexibility, making it easier to adapt to changes in technology or business requirements.
