Profile Information

My interest in Model Driven Software Development:

- Learning new or existing MDSD techniques, and all forms of rapid development and code reuse.
- Connection between MDSD and other disciplines (like AOP, Code Generation and Component-based systems)
- Networking with other MDSD professionals, opinion leaders and decision-makers in the industry

My experience of Model Driven Software Development:

- Studying Rapid Development techniques for several years
- Developing a new Model-Driven Software Engineering methodology and its implementation through a dedicated IDE.

Rui Curado replied to Peter Adriaenssens's discussion 'Free Software'

The problems I see regarding open source are: - If you are a solo committer, your life will probably change (marry, have kids, change jobs, **failed financial expectations from the open-source project**, etc), and so your project will probably die.…

"Let’s take the example from ABSE. Very nice and smart product but how it can be a success story, if needs to compete with free products from top 10 IT companies?" Thank you for your kind words, Peter! ABSE is coming out slowly nicely. Well, there…

Rui Curado replied to Xavier Seignard's discussion 'Models repositories : What about the exisitng tools?'

Well, ABSE revolves around the notion of an Atom Library, which is a metamodel repository. In fact ABSE is totally dependent on it. You build an ABSE model by instantiating metamodels from the Atom Library. There is no other way in fact, so you must…

I will have a look. Thanks for the tip :-)

My book has been out since late Feb and getting very good comments. How are you doing on your IDE?

Li seus comentários e acho que pensamos de forma parecida: o MDD deve ser visual, familiar e simples.

Obrigado pela recepção.

Abraços.

I have several different designs if you would like to take a look. I can put the screen shots into a PDF and send it to you.

At 4:06pm on February 5, 2009, Gordon Morrison said…: I understand the threat to programmers. But as technology advances the need to "code" as we have since the 50's is going to go away. I look forward to the better productivity and not having to code.
In my previous I tried to upload a couple of diagrams from the book. Let me know if the PDF came through.

At 2:48pm on February 5, 2009, Gordon Morrison said…: The book was posted this week on Amazon.com. The title is "Breaking the Time Barrier". I look forward to your questions and comments. I was in Cascais two years ago, I really like the area.

At 3:23pm on January 27, 2009, Gordon Morrison said…: I have been resisent to get involved in any discussions because the book is in the printing process. My publisher says it should be available on line and in stores by the end of Feb if not sooner (ISBN: 978-1-4327-3215-8). Dr. Aynur Unal is now living in Istanbul and can be reached at . My 4,847,755 patent is also very interesting if you are into Multi-Core and Hyper-Threading architectures.

At 9:06pm on January 26, 2009, Gordon Morrison said…: This is from the back of the book:

What if you could reduce the size of applications by 50 percent, while cutting code complexity by a factor of three? Breaking the Time Barrier, from renowned inventor and programming expert Gordon E. Morrison, can help you do all that while dramatically increasing software reliability. The secret is COSA, Coherent Object System Architecture. This revolutionary new paradigm in software engineering, keeps control-flow and data-flow separate, and brings breakthrough time savings where it counts. The resulting applications are easier to trace, debug, validate, and reuse⎯and are free of the scourge of modern software engineering: “spaghetti code.”
Promising a Moore’s Law for software—in which software decreases in size while increasing in performance—Breaking the Time Barrier allows the technology to be consistent from the top of the model down to the binary code at the bottom. This happens through changing the architectural paradigm from the way specifications are created to the automated manufacture of the application. Breaking the Time Barrier is chock full of programming examples and clear instructions that will make it among a software engineer’s most referenced technical works.

“This technique is so powerful and adaptive that it has the potential to develop into a complete, model driven architecture and holds the possibility of eliminating programmers as we know them.”
⎯Dr. Aynur Anul, Silicon Valley, 2005
