This study presents a systematic methodology for MDA transformation that includes creating a platform independent model (PIM), transforming PIM into platform specific model (PSM), and transforming PSM into a Code model.The PIM is created first based on the use case, activity diagram and robustness diagram.The PIM is then transformed into a PSM based on three target platforms: Web-based user interface, Java, and relational database.The PSM is then transformed into a Code model based on three types of code: JavaServer Pages (JSP) 2.0, J2SE 1.5.0 and Oracle Database.With this methodology, systems can more easily and systematically be analyzed, designed, and generated and, thereby, increase system development productivity.
