Towards Methods for Model-Based Software Development
Software engineering is a young discipline. Despite efforts in recent years,
some elements still require further development, research, and systematization.
One of these elements are methods. They consist of a set of well-defined
activities used in a software development to guide how the work should be
performed to achieve the expected results. However, there is a lack of
systematic knowledge that effectively guide how work should be done in a
variety of areas. Despite the knowledge available in Software Engineering Body
of Knowledge (SWEBOK), only the classical methods are comprised there, while
emerging topics such as Agent-Oriented Software Engineering (AOSE),
Aspect-Oriented Software Development (AOSD), and Model-Based Software
Development (MBSE) are only briefly mentioned. We claim that it is also
necessary to investigate methods for those emerging software engineering
subtracks. In this direction, this paper presents a a speculative and
preliminary emerging results on the establishment of methods for MBSE. We
report some insights on the conception of methods for MBSE
