Abstract

Many companies choose for Distributed Software Development (DSD), once it brings benefits like cost reduction and productivity increase. Together with the benefits, come also challenges regarding coordination, communication and control. Model Driven Development (MDD) has models as main artifacts. Although it’s adoption increases development productivity, to take advantage from it, working with models, adjustments in software development are requireds. This paper presents a Continuous Integration Server (CIS) for models. It aims to mitigate the challenges of DSD and also offer support to MDD.
