· DSL Core is the DSL for RIA and WS along with the core persistence and indexing engines

· DSL Services is responsible for management and extensibility of all DSL artifacts

· DSL Editing is responsible for the display and editing management of all model artifacts

· DSL Adaptation is the core of how external models and artifacts are interacted with by the DSL

· DSL 2 Implementation is responsible for the defining of DSL to code mappings and the generation of code artifacts

· Demo of Skyway Software’s DSL to illustrate the implementation of the above architecture
