OSGi services design process using model driven architecture
Julio Cano, Natividad Martínez Madrid, Ralf Seepold · 2009
Large and complex systems design is still being a challenge even bigger when developing embedded, distributed or real-time systems. OSGi is a platform created to reduce some of the software design problems, increasing reusability, modularity, etc. While, MDA is also designed to simplify software process development using different modelling layers. This paper describes how OSGi services can be designed and implemented using a MDA methodology and how easy it can be implemented with open source tools like Eclipse and its plugins.
