資訊系統能有效的幫助企業面對快速變動環境的挑戰是一個不爭的事實。為了反應環境的變化，對於系統須具備高彈性、高品質與低成本的需求劇增。除此之外，使用者在日常的生活或工作中也越來越仰賴資訊科技或資訊系統。因此，如何提高軟體的產出一直被高度的思索。一個重用先前的模組、元件、軟體開發方法、分析資料或測試資訊的想法被高度重視以利提升軟體生產力。這種方法稱為元件式開發(component-based development)或元件式軟體工程(component-based software engineering)，同時也成為軟體開發的主流。

　　許多元件式開發(CBD)的方法、工具與技術已在文獻中被提出，不過將以上整合至一個共同的環境中以支援系統的開發事實上是很缺乏的。因此，我們提出一個應用系統產生器的架構，這個架構整合先前說明的方法與概念於一個相互合作的機制中。此外，本研究提出一套方法論將企業模式或使用者需求轉換為建構規格且讓建構應用系統更有效率。最後，我們運用本研究的方法論於實際個案並透過產生器來產生應用系統，以驗證其可行性

　　There is a general agreement that information system (IS) is one of the effective solutions to help enterprises dealing with the challenge in today’s dynamic environment. In response to the changing business environment, the need for a system with flexibility, high quality, and low cost has increased dramatically. Besides, end users more and more rely on IT (information technologies) or IS for their daily life or work. Therefore, how to attain high software throughput would be highly sought constantly. An idea of reusing previously developed modules, packages, components, software development methodologies, analysis data and test information has been attracting as a keystone to improve software productivity. This approach was called component-based development (CBD) or component-based software engineering (CBSE) and is becoming the main stream of software development.

　　Various CBD approaches, tools, and techniques were proposed in the literature, however the research on the integration of the above into an environment to enhance the system development is virtually lacking. Therefore, we proposed a framework of application generator, which integrates above approaches and concepts into a collaborative mechanism. Otherwise, we proposed a methodology based on our generator for end users to translate the business models or user requirements into the specification and construct application more efficient. Finally, we apply this methodology to a real-world case and generate the application by the generator in order to verify the feasibility.
