MDE uses models to build software, thereby displacing source code as the development process's main feature. DSLs provide easy, intuitive descriptions of the system using graphic models. In this new context, DSLs facilitate work in the first design stages. In addition, MDE helps reduce DSL development costs. It therefore represents a synergistic union that can significantly improve software development. %K Tecnología Electrónica %K Dominio específico de lenguajes %K Domótica %K Lenguajes Visuales %K Modelos basados en ingeniería %K Gráficos por ordenador %K Compiladores de programas %K Domain specific languages %K Home automation %K Visual languages %K Computer graphic %K Program compilers %K Model Driven Engineering (MDE) %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
