Lyo code generator: A model-based code generator for the development of OSLC-compliant tool interfaces

To promote the newly emerging OSLC (Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration) tool interoperability standard, an open source code generator is developed that allows for the specification of OSLC-compliant tool interfaces, and from which almost complete Java code of the interface can be generated. The software takes a model-based development approach to tool interoperability, with the aim of providing modeling support for the complete development cycle of a tool interface. The software targets both OSLC developers, as well as the interoperability research community, with proven capabilities to be extended to support their corresponding needs.
