A Proposed Framework for Comparing Tools to Reduce the Cost of Information Systems Development

Abstract: The rapid technical development in the world of software engineering and the rapid and continuous change in user requirements have created the need for software developers and systems analysts to identify and compare the advantages and disadvantages of tools for building software applications, especially modern tools that reduce the cost of developing information systems, and Model Driven Architecture tools are among the most important tools used to reduce the cost of developing information systems. This research is a step forward in identifying these tools that give an idea of the Model Driven Architecture tools that software developers and systems analysts can utilize to reduce the cost of that matter. Several criteria have been proposed to compare IS cost reduction tools, where six tools have been identified by presenting the advantages and disadvantages of each of them according to the proposed criteria. Knowing the most important advantages and disadvantages of these tools and comparing them will help system developers choose the tool that provides them with the required assistance and is compatible with the platform on which they work with the least cost, time, and effort. Keywords: Model Driven Architecture (MDA) - Model transformation tools – Reducing.
