在《信息系统开发平台OpenExpressApp － 总体架构的由来》中介绍过Mendix，它是一个我比较看好的基于模型驱动开发的软件平台，它的研发负责人Johan den Haan是一个技术牛人，blog上经常发表一些高技术含量的文章，值得大家学习。以下为他2008和2009年的汇总，摘录如下，建议对模型驱动开发感兴趣的朋友可以读一下。

July
August
- A metaphor for Model Driven Engineering: my favorite metaphor for explaining MDE / MDD to the business.
September
- From Process Design to Process Automation: the slides of my talk at BPM2009.
October
- Modeling an organization using Enterprise Ontology: introducing Enterprise Ontology. A formal method to model organizations.
- An Enterprise Ontology based approach to Model-Driven Engineering: an overview of my thesis which presents an approach to MDE based on Enterprise Ontology: Model-Driven Enterprise Engineering.

I just want to give a recent post specialattention because it’s a first attempt to bridge my interest in both enterprisearchitecture and model driven engineering: Theplace of Architecture in Model-Driven Engineering.
January
- ModelDriven Architecture (MDA) special interest group on LinkedIn: I started aspecial interest group for MDA on LinkedIn. Until now over 1500 members havejoined this group. You can still jointoday!
- MDA, Model DrivenArchitecture, basic concepts: post explaining the basic concepts of MDA asdefined by the OMG.
- SOA Approach to Integration: bookreview.
February
- MDAand Model Transformation: overview of model transformation approaches and away to classify them.
March
- ModelDriven Engineering: post introducing Model Driven Engineering (MDE) as abroader concept as MDA. James Taylor had a nice follow-uparticle explaining how MDE shouldn’t only focus on developer productivity, becausethe model that should drive the engineering is a business model, not atechnical one.
April
- Springtime…: changed the whole appearance of my blog. If you have suggestions forimprovement please feel free to contact me.
- Combininggeneral purpose languages and domain specific languages for Model DrivenEngineering: this article explains the notion of model, metamodel, andmodeling language. It also shows how ontological and linguistic metamodelingcan be combined for defining DSLs (Domain-Specific Languages). This is shownwith an example process modeling DSL. InfoQ picked up the article with this summary.
May
- Architecturerequirements for Service-Oriented Business Applications: primer onService-Oriented Architecture (SOA). The first part of the article explains theproject types to execute when moving to a SOA and it argues why a SOA is neededif you want to integrate processes. The second part goes into detail aboutservice-oriented development (programming model, service types, implementationand standards). Recently Nick Malik recommended the article in thisblog post, thanks Nick!
- ModelDriven Experience: announcing the first Dutch symposium on Model DrivenDevelopment practices. I’m looking forward to the 2009 edition!
June
- Qualityin Model-Driven SOBA development: article explaining how an MDE approachfor Service-Oriented Business Applications (SOBA) asks for specific approachesto ensure the quality of the resulting system. Model validation, modelchecking, and model-based testing are described.
- MDAMDD MDE MDSD MDSE: help!: just a fun post on the confusion in MD*abbreviations.
July
- OSGiquick start: just as the title says, a quick start if you want to startwith OSGi.
- SOAOntology: my comments on SOA Ontology Draft 2.0 published that day by TheOpen Group. InfoQ included the post in their news item onthis draft.
- 8Reasons Why Model-Driven Approaches (will) Fail: post announcing my article (withthe same title) on InfoQ. The article was introduced on InfoQ byJean-Jacques Dubray in this news item.
August
- DSLand MDE, necessary assets for Model-Driven approaches: article explainingwhat Domain-Specific Languages are, why you should use them, and how they canshould be combined with MDE.
- DSLin the context of UML and GPL: my reaction on a post of Steven Kelly, whichwas a reaction on a post of Cameron Skinner explaining Microsofts view on DSLsand UML. This post is my contribution to the DSL vs UML debate. InfoQ pickedup the discussion with thisitem.
September
- Thestructure of Domain-Specific Languages: post explaining how the structureof DSLs can differ in two different ways. An intermediate DSL can be a way tohandle the complexity of using multiple DSLs with different structures.
- MoDELS'08: post announcing the MoDELS ’08 conference.
October

- Domain-SpecificModeling needs multi-models: article explaining the concept ‘multi-model’.It is a more detailed explanation of the combination of MDE with DSLs.
- Theplace of Architecture in Model-Driven Engineering: a first attempt tobridge my interest in both enterprise architecture and model drivenengineering. This article explains what role architecture plays (or can play)in MDE.
December
- IfProgramming Languages were <T>: just a referrer to a fun post on thecomparison of programming languages with religions, cars, boats, women,girlfriends, subcultures, mixed drinks, music, rock bands, art, languages, andChristmas songs.
