A Model Transformation from Computing Independent Model to Platform Independent Model in Model Driven Architecture

This paper presents a new methodology to master models transformation from CIM to PIM in accord with MDA approach. Our improved approach is founded on creation a good CIM level, through well-chosen rules, for facilitating models transformation to PIM level. However, we establish a rich PIM models via use case diagram, state diagram, class and package diagram. Next, we describe a set of transformation rules to ensure a semi-automatic transformation from CIM to PIM. Our method conform MDA approach by taking into consideration the business dimension in the CIM level, since, we present this level by using activity diagram who is a standard of business process modeling. Nevertheless, we use UML into PIM in our proposal, because UML is recommended by MDA in this level
