Editor's Feature

Using an Eclipse-based Code and Model-centric Development Approach to Meet Time-to-Market and Quality Goals

Open source development promises a low-cost, intuitive and universally accepted means to develop new software projects. With the emergence of Eclipse, developers are naturally interested in using a standard framework to develop embedded and/or real-time applications. But leveraging the power of the Eclipse framework within a UML® 2.1 Model Driven Development™ (MDD™) environment has, until now, been a tremendous challenge for engineers. Telelogic Rhapsody® allows engineers to leverage Eclipse CDT/JDT to work at the code level and in a proven MDD environment. Read more >>

Telelogic Rhapsody Testing News

Leveraging New Testing Processes and Reverse Engineering to Meet Tight Deadlines

Reverse engineering offers a pathway to a Model Driven Development™ (MDD™) approach, but it does not exclude you from using traditional methods for coding. The benefits are in the automation of several activities that are crucial to the development of an application such as documentation generation and testing. Specifically you are able to:

  • Utilize a flexible code and model-centric workflow
  • Reuse existing assets in the form of code or models
  • Automatically create documentation through visualization
  • Take advantage of an improved testing environment

Streamlining Your System with Concurrency Architectures

Concurrency is a key aspect of almost any real-time and embedded system because it so directly influences its performance. It’s so important, in fact, that I've recently started working on a new class that focuses on just that topic – the identification, characterization, selection, architecting, and implementation of efficient concurrency architectures.

Of course, if concurrent tasks are actually independent, that's a straightforward problem, so, naturally, that’s almost never the case. Concurrent tasks have to synchronize, rendezvous and share resources – and that's when it gets interesting – as in 'arbitrarily complex.' Read more >>
