Overcoming Obstacles in Model-Driven Engineering: Lessons from the Software Industry
Abstract
Examining present methods and identifying obstacles that experts encounter when applying model-based engineering in Bangladesh's software sector are the goals of this study. This study seeks to provide light on these issues to make many contributions:
• Using the analysis to delve into the unique issues experienced by software modelling specialists.
• Determining the common practices and difficulties encountered by practitioners adopting model-based engineering within Bangladesh's software sector.
• Putting forth a framework to direct next efforts aimed at resolving these issues and improving system modelling techniques in Bangladesh's software sector.
The contribution of this paper lies in its multifaceted exploration of the factors influencing new product development within software firms, particularly within the context of Bangladesh. By focusing on this specific region and industry, the paper offers unique insights into the challenges and opportunities faced by software companies operating in a rapidly evolving market landscape. Firstly, the paper contributes to the academic literature by synthesizing existing knowledge on marketing performance measurement, innovation, market orientation, and the role of information technology across various sectors. By providing a comprehensive overview of these concepts, the paper establishes a robust theoretical foundation for understanding the dynamics of using Model-Driven Engineering (MDE).
Secondly, the paper advances theoretical understanding by proposing hypotheses that explore the mediation effects of using the software modeling on firm performance. These hypotheses provide a framework for Sequential Approach to Address Challenges in Model-Driven Engineering (MDE).
Methodologically, the paper contributes to research methodology by employing a structured questionnaire administered to a sample of software companies in Bangladesh. By utilizing a combination of personal interviews, phone interviews, and online surveys, the study ensures a comprehensive exploration of the challenges in Model-Driven Engineering (MDE).
The findings analysis gives a summary of existing practices and sheds light on the difficulties encountered while developing model-based software systems, practitioner satisfaction, and the efficacy of software modelling. By carefully analyzing the survey results, the study seeks to shed insight on the challenges faced by practitioners and their perspectives on software modelling. To
obtain a deeper knowledge and address the difficulties found, future directions entail applying solutions, expanding the survey's scope, and adding practitioner feedback.
Overall, the contribution of this paper extends beyond the specific context of Bangladesh to offer valuable insights for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in understanding the factors shaping model driven engineering in software firms. The study examines the challenges encountered by the Bangladeshi software industry in software modeling, with a focus on issues
related to model quality, scalability, and industry acceptance. Drawing from industrial use cases and concepts from various engineering fields, the research aims to propose solutions and promote a smoother adoption of Model-Driven Engineering (MDE). By shedding light on these dynamics, the paper contributes to the advancement of knowledge in the fields of model driven engineering, with broader implications for industry practices worldwide.
