ABSTRACT
Grammar-oriented Object design (GOOD) externalizes the manners of enterprise-scale components using a business domain-specific language. This implementation of manners models the flow and constraints on a set of collaborating enterprise components.A Business Compiler (BC) executes manners of components specified in the business domain-specific language; supporting a highly re-configurable architectural style. The BC is a software asset that can be used to define, parse and execute business flow languages. This provides various advantages including the ability to animate and execute the collaboration of components reflecting the business process steps defined by business modeler. Architects enhance the grammar with component services that serve as actions in the grammar. The combination of flow definition by modelers and component services by software architects provides a powerful collaborative environment for enabling the incremental creation of a highly re-configurable architectural style.This tool (Business Compiler) is the result of harvesting a set of software assets from multiple projects into an API and a GUI front end that helps modelers by providing dynamic documentation and animation of and can be used to drive business flow for highly adaptive and re-configurable software architectures.

A Domain-Language Approach to Designing Dynamic Enterprise Component-Based Architectures to Support Business Services
TOOLS '01: Proceedings of the 39th International Conference and Exhibition on Technology of Object-Oriented Languages and Systems (TOOLS39)Abstract: In this paper we present the solutions to a major subset of problems facing component-based development and integration (CBDI). These solutions include patterns, techniques, design artifacts and activities across what we have identified as the ...
