Current Research: Architecture for Java with XParts

XParts is an UML-based architecture description language and an application framework for Java applications. It is a simple extension of the Java language by interpreting an xml-based architecture model descriptor.

• You can read more about XParts in the following white paper: An Execution Model for UML Component Diagrams Integrated Into Java Programming.
• A short paper can be found as part of the ECOOP workshop Practical Problems of Programming in the Large 2004
• You can try it and study the source code (available under GNU public license).
• XParts is now dynamically distributable, see the diploma (master) thesis of Alexander Prack.
