Conception and Development Tools for SCOrWare - Version 2.0

The SCOrWare project objectives are to develop: ● A runtime platform for deploying, executing, and managing SCA based applications. ● A set of development tools for modeling, designing, and implementing SCA based applications. ● A set of demonstrators. This document specifies the set of tools used to design, develop, test, and deploy elements to build a distributed architecture compound of components, services, and business services. These tools are based on standards like MDA (Model Driven Architecture) [1], DSL (Domain Specific Language) [2], SCA (Service Component Architecture), and are build on top of Eclipse. Some of these tools complete currently available tools proposed in the SOA Tools Platform (STP) project [3], and others are specific to the SCOrWare project. Section 1.1 lists existing STP tools, and Section 1.2 gives an overview of the contributions of the developed SCOrWare tools, and a summary of next chapters.
