Towards a meta-method for the engineering of situational evaluation methods for domain-specific modeling tools

摘要: Peltoniemi, Ari Towards a Meta-Method for the Engineering of Situational Evaluation Methods Domain-Specific Modeling Tools Jyvaskyla: University Jyvaskyla, 2014, 116 p. Information Systems Science, Master’s Thesis Supervisor: Leppanen, Mauri (DSM) is an approach to Development (ISD) in which abstraction level development raised from solution domain problem domain. DSM enables automation ISD, particularly narrow and well-established domains, concepts, rules semantics can be meaningfully specified as constructs languages. tools provide facilities language specification application well model transformation. are typically evaluated by industry justification tool acquisitions. also research purposes. In order assure validity results, evaluation method must address situational context its multi-disciplinary dimensions. The current literature provides very limited support engineering methods tools. primary objective study investigate how methodically A practical need was identified case study, were industrial context. premise suggests that Method (SME) principles would potential solution. Design Science Research (DSR) applied framework study. Two artifacts designed evaluated, according DSR: 1) criteria checklist tools, 2) baseline evaluators, used guideline formulation promotes commensuration results. conceptual instantiated engineers main contribution design theory or conceptually empirically evaluated. Future required confirm findings further elaborate Meta-Method.
