Abstract :
In this article we contribute to the issue of the recent research work, in which software architecture is oriented more toward the OMG group. Thus, we try to map any ADL (Architecture Description Language) into MDA (Model Driven Architecture) platform. Our strategy is based on constructing a meta ontology that next can be used as a façade meta-model for semantic mapping of ADLs into MDA platforms. We show how this strategy can be used by mapping COSA architectural description concepts into CORBA. The goal of our work is to increase the high level of systems´ concepts abstracting for wrapping and integrating heterogeneous software concepts into MDA platforms via a top-level ontology.
