Popis: ScatterFactory is a generative infrastructure for the model driven development of software for the Embedded Sensor Boards (ESB) of the WSN-Platform ScatterWeb. The chosen architecture centric approach represents an instance of the Model Driven Architecture. The goal is the furthermost automated and standardized production of software system families for the ScatterWeb ESBs. For this purpose, we developed a component meta model which builds a basis for a complete tool chain, from the model platform all the way to the deployment of the generated code onto the Sensor Boards. To model a ScatterWeb network, we developed a domain specific graphical editor on the basis of the Eclipse Modeling Framework and the Graphical Modeling Framework. For the examination of static model constraints, we integrated a real time validation into the editor. We used the openArchitectureWare framework for the transformation from models into code. The ScatterFactory framework was completed with additional components like flash-components for the automatic deployment of generated artifacts in an existing network. We realized our ScatterFactory tool with the Eclipse Framework as a basis
