S2A, standing for Scenarios to Aspects, is a compiler that translates Modal UML Sequence Diagrams (MSDs), a UML-compliant variant of live sequence charts (LSCs), into AspectJ code. It thus provides full code generation of reactive behavior from visual inter-object scenario-based specifications. The compilation scheme for S2A was presented by Shahar Maoz and David Harel in 2006.

More about S2A can be found in the references below. As of 2010, S2A is part of PlayGo.
