Papyrus Coding Day 2018

Conference, Papyrus, Uncategorized, ,

In previous posts (here and here), I mentioned the increased focus on Papyrus Toolsmiths.

In this context, the Papyrus development team is putting together a “Papyrus coding day” just before EclipseCon France.
During this free coding day, they will provide you with:

  • Hands-on sessions to get an insight on Papyrus SDK capabilities
  • Discussions with the Papyrus development team

Registration is mandatory as there is a limit on the number of attendees is limited.

And rejoice in that attendance is free (and includes coffee and snacks)!

There are, however, prerequisites:

  • Knowledge of Java (at least intermediate level)
  • EMF and UML experience is an plus!

So whether you are already invested in Papyrus, just curious, a toolsmith or a hacker, this may be of interest to you!

You can contact me is this is of interest and I will put you in touch with the organizers!

(The information you provide will only be used to put you in touch with the organizer and then deleted)

Papyrus-RT 0.7.1 released!

Papyrus-RT,

Papyrus for Real Time makes progresses with two releases in two months!

After a first, post-initial contribution version 0.7 release in September, we have followed through with a 0.7.1 service release in October!

With the 0.7.0 release, we improved on our initial release by providing:

The  0.7.1 release fixed problems found in the tooling, code generation and runtime support, improved runtime services and the model import capability, as well as improving our build and test infrastructures and our test models.

Our plan is still to provide timely updates in order to continue making good progress towards our ultimate goal of releasing a 1.0 version with Eclipse Neon, next June.

Have questions or comments about Papyrus for Real Time? Please let us know through our discussion forum!

Found a bug or want an improvement? Report it in Bugzilla!

Want to meet us? We will be at EclipseCon Europe at the Papyrus Summit and also with a presentation/demo! We will also have a poster at the Unconference.

Papyrus used to design the PolarSys rover at EclipseCon Europe 2015!

Conference, Papyrus, , , ,

Papyrus is one of the solutions provided by PolarSys, an Eclipse working group dedicated to providing open source tools for embedded systems.

So it should not be a surprise that Papyrus is part of the PolarSys rover demo project.

Interested in seeing how PolarSys offerings can be used in system engineering? Come see the “Rover Use Case, Specification, design and implementation using Polarsys Tools: Capella, CDT, Gendoc, Papyrus and ReqCycle” presentation (with a long title…) at EclipseCon Europe 2015!

I look forward to meeting you in Ludwigsburg, DE!

Papyrus4Java at EclipseCon Europe 2015

Conference, Papyrus, UML, , ,

The “Papyrus4Java – UML diagrams for ordinary java developers” presentation is approved for EclipseCon Europe 2015!

This presentation shows how Papyrus fills the gap and brings the world of modeling technologies back to the hands of ordinary java developers.

Are you a Java developer? Are you interested in seeing your code as UML? Then come and see this presentation!

I look forward to meeting you in Ludwigsburg, DE!

Papyrus for Real Time at EclipseCon Europe 2015

Conference, Papyrus-RT, , ,

If you recall, Papyrus for Real Time (a.k.a., Papyrus-RT) was approved earlier this year as a new Eclipse project.

One of my minions’ presentation about Papyrus-RT was accepted at EclipseCon Europe 2015. In that presentation he will explain what Papyrus-RT is, how it can make models executable, and will even show what it can do!

If you are going to EclipseCon and are interested in fully creating runnable executables from UML, come and have a look!

You can also look a the Papyrus-RT wiki for more information about the tool.

I look forward to meeting you in Ludwigsburg, DE!

EclipseCon Europe 2014 – The Aftermath

Conference, DSML, MARTE, UML-RT, , , , , , ,

EclipseCon Europe was so much fun that it took me a whole week to recover! That’s what you call a conference!

As I stated in a previous post, there was a whole day dedicated to me as part of the conference. On the Tuesday, at least 32 of my best friends came together in the Wilhelm-Kramer-Zimmer room and spent the day discussing my existing and new features and new ways of working. I liked that beginners could have a view of me, how my models can be validated, the whole collaborative modeling discussion, and the various useful extensions and use of my capabilities. And of course, the great discussions over dinner!

Presentations from the summit can be found on its wiki page.

In parallel, in the modeling summit, people also learned how I am developing more real-time, executable capabilities! Yes, I was already supporting MARTE (Modeling and Analysis of Real-Time Embedded Systems), and now I’m getting full code generation for UML-RT! This means that you create your UML-RT model, press a button, and generate a complete, runnable system! The only drawback is that you’ll have to wait for the Eclipse Mars release in June 2015.

On the Wednesday, there was a great presentation that highlighted my customisation capabilities and DSML (Domain-Specific Modeling Language) support. In “UML or DSML? You can now have both with Papyrus 1.0!“, Ericsson described a real-life example of using my capabilities to create a DSML that enabled greater collaboration across domain and expertise silos!

The next big Eclipse event will be EclipseCon North America. Come see me there!

 

EclipseCon Europe – Papyrus Summit

Conference, , , , ,

Today (Tuesday) at EclipseCon Europe, there is a whole-day summit about me! Meet me and my friends, new and old, in Wilhelm-Kramer Zimmer for a whole day of fun!

We’ll be talking about how a newcomer sees me, about technical stuff like GMF, OCL, EMF, EGit, and Gerrit, and also about less esoteric stuff like collaboration, integration, validation,  comparison, and reviews. More information available on the summit wiki.

Curious open-source modeling, come and have a look!
