Managing CALIPSOneo Project: Learning from Trenches

The model-driven engineering paradigm (MDE) is a paradigm that combines the power of concepts and its relations, using abstracts models in order to offer suitable mechanisms for software development. In fact, software engineering community has applied MDE in different contexts of software engineering, getting suitable results. Despite these mechanisms, both global coordination and effective management of big software projects are not always easy task. Lack in communication lines, configuration plan execution and risky management are activities that have been executed by development teams in order to assure the quality of results, an essential point for a project to succeed. This paper presents an approach based on the NDT methodology in order to solve these problems. This proposal has been applied in a real project called CALIPSOneo
