Abstract
One of the current trends in computer science is the use of ontologies in Software Engineering. In this context,
several academic and industrial works have used ontologies as mechanism for system requirements representation
and automatic code generation. However, most of current works propose generic development platforms
regardless the reuse of components for a specific domain. In this paper, a Model-Driven Development Framework,
called SemanticWebBuilder (SWB) is presented. SWB provides an agile development platform for the
Web application domain, where system requirements are modeled through ontologies and from this knowledge
representation, the infrastructure of the system is automatically generated. The resultant system can be
extended by reusing of code, thus allowing to build complex systems in a short time. Moreover, system data
is represented as RDF triples, making this data available in the Semantic Web. SWB has been widely used to
develop Web applications for several government dependencies in Mexico.
