Methodology


The Zeligsoft implementation of Component-Oriented Engineering extends the key benefits of Model-Driven Development and component-based software development to achieve substantial productivity benefits…

Reuse components? What a novel thought…

The overwhelming mantra today is “improve productivity!” Many are eager to find new approaches to realize software development productivity gains and address quality challenges. Software development leaders are attempting to “industrialize software” and do more with fewer people, in less time.

How many times have you quietly wondered: “why aren’t applications that we’ve invested in being assembled from pre-existing components rather than developing them from scratch each time?”

Zeligsoft has been asking the same question for almost a decade. And the answer is a resounding “yes, they can.”

The promise of MDD and CBD…

In fairness, this has always been the promise of Component-Based Development (CBD) and Model-Driven Development (MDD) — technologies that we’ve been involved with since the beginning. But neither have delivered fully on that promise…until now.

Zeligsoft’s COE methodology delivers on the promise…

Enter Zeligsoft’s Component-Oriented Engineering (COE) methodology. We are calling this a breakthrough for achieving productivity gains in software development. And it is. That’s because Zeligsoft has refined its COE methodology to specifically address the challenges of complex embedded systems that are characterized by distributed applications and heterogeneous multiprocessor platforms.
