Model-Driven Development for scientific computing. An upgrade of the RHEEDGr program

Abstract Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) is the software engineering discipline, which considers models as the most important element for software development, and for the maintenance and evolution of software, through model transformation. Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) is the approach for software development under the Model-Driven Engineering framework. This paper surveys the core MDA technology that was used to upgrade of the RHEEDGR program to C++0x language standards. Title of program: RHEEDGR-09 Catalogue Id: ADUY_v3_0 Nature of problem Reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) is a very useful technique for studying growth and surface analysis of thin epitaxial structures prepared by the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The RHEED technique can reveal, almost instantaneously, changes either in the coverage of the sample surface by adsorbates or in the surface structure of a thin film.

摘要：模型驱动工程（Model-Driven Engineering, MDE）是软件工程学科的一门分支，将模型视为通过模型转换开展软件开发、软件维护与软件演进过程中的核心要素。模型驱动架构（Model-Driven Architecture, MDA）是模型驱动工程框架下的软件开发方法。本文综述了用于将RHEEDGR程序升级至C++0x语言标准的核心MDA技术。
程序名称：RHEEDGR-09
目录编号：ADUY_v3_0
问题本质：反射式高能电子衍射（Reflection high-energy electron diffraction, RHEED）是一项用于研究分子束外延（Molecular Beam Epitaxy, MBE）制备的超薄外延结构生长与表面分析的实用技术。该技术可近乎实时地捕捉样品表面吸附物覆盖度的变化，或是薄膜表面结构的演变。
