Generating software from specifications

Generating Software from Specifications is the ideal resource for those interested in increasing their software development productivity. it demonstrates how to leverage existing generation technology to achieve software reuse and thereby reduce the cost and improve the reliability of current software.The author's approach can be applied incrementally without disrupting current projects or requiring changes in existing programs or methodology.Robust public-domain tools are available to support these component-based software development techniques on a number of levels, from simple turn-key operations to custom software generation.1.
