talk held on EclipseCon 2011 in Santa Clara

1. Developing Machine Control Systems with eTrice
- Live Demo -

Protos Software GmbH
EclipseCon, 24.03.2011, Santa Clara

2. Scope of eTrice
 tooling for the the language ROOM
(Real Time Object Oriented Modeling)
 textual and graphical model editors
 code generators and portable target runtime libraries
for Java, C++, and C
 model level debugging of the target
 support heterogenous distributed systems out of the box
 eTrice is a Modeling Toolset for event-driven, distributed embedded
systems

3. ROOM Editors: Actors & Ports
Hierarchical Components called Actors define the Structure
of a System
Graphical Editors Textual Editors
(Graphiti) (Xtext)
Ports are the only Interfaces of an actor and define a specific
role in its environment.
 Models can be edited with graphical or textual editors

6. Project Plan
Current Status:
 incubation phase
 Initial contribution in december 2010
Next Steps:
 version 0.1 in Q2 / 2011
 support for modeling of structure, behavior and inheritance
 generators and middleware for Java
 model level debugging
 later: generators and middleware for C++ (and C)
 first industry pilot project until july 2011 (automation control system)
