EMF | EclipseCon - Eclipse Foundation

Modeling and more - Experiences in building an efficient model infrastructure

The Eclipse Modeling Framework enables developers to easily build models and provides a mature infrastructure. However, it is difficult to know the possibilities of EMF and to assess the many extension projects that are available in the Eclipse ecosystem. The talk will describe the journey and the pitfalls of defining the AMALTHEA model and implementing the model infrastructure in Eclipse APP4MC. The platform is in use in the automotive industry and provides (after several optimizations) the following features:

Model Driven IoT - how EMF powers Eclipse sensiNact 2.0

Tim Ward (Kentyou)

Jürgen Albert (Data In Motion Consulting GmbH)

Developing IoT systems can be a challenging business. Whether it’s a hobby project or a mission critical system there are tensions in the project lifecycle. You start by wanting rapid access to a new cool device, without the overhead of deep low-level understanding, and later begin to need better rules for managing and controlling your system.

Eclipse sensiNact provides a flexible gateway and runtime for your smart IoT projects. By adding the power of the Eclipse Modelling framework sensiNact 2.0 has evolved. EMF permits sensiNact to use “zero model setup” for rapid development, dynamically discovering the models for your devices, later these models can be exported and reused, providing automatic data validation and transformation capabilities.

Livecoding : Supercharge Your Sirius Web apps!

Stephane Begaudeau (OBEO)

Sirius is the easiest framework when it comes to creating graphical studios in the EMF ecosystem. With Sirius Web, we present the next generation. Rewritten from the ground up and with first-class support for Web applications, Sirius Web, as the successor of Sirius Desktop, also brings new features and support for existing studios specifications.

What’s in there? How does it differ from the classic Sirius Desktop?

The answers to these questions and others will be given in this talk, together with a dive into example applications.

Alice's Adventures in Sirius Web land

Melanie Bats (OBEO)

Alice was beginning to get very tired of creating DSL graphical editors and of having too many things to do: start Eclipse, describe her domain with Ecore, generate the EMF code, launch another Eclipse runtime, specify her graphical mappings with Sirius Desktop, test with another Eclipse runtime, package everything to an update site, send it to Bob so that he can install it, help Bob who can’t find how to install the modeler, reiterate from the beginning to update the tool according to Bob feedbacks and needs…

LEMMA: Eclipse-Powered Modeling of Microservice Architecture

Florian Rademacher (IDiAL Institute, University of Applied Sciences and Arts Dortmund)

Microservice Architecture (MSA) is one of the recent trends in the area of Software Architecture. MSA promotes to decompose software systems into distributed services, each focusing on a well-defined, distinct task with the greatest possible independence in both technical and organizational hindsight.

Eclipse Modeling Language

Oscar Slotosch (Validas AG)

EML is a model-based, functional langauge that extends EMF.
The Eclipse Modeling Language (EML) is a functional, model-based language that can be used to specify semantic operations in an executable way. Specifications can checked for type consistency, executed and code can be generated from them. The specification is specialized to work on Eclipse Models build with the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF).
EML can be used to specify operations that work within Eclipse-based tools, for example in test or report generators.
