modeling

Do you want to build a domain-specific tool for the cloud? Does your solution contain features such as form-based editors, tree views, graphical editors, model comparison, model validation, model analysis or even code generation? Are you wondering how all the nice features and frameworks provided by EMF and its ecosystem can be used in a cloud-based tool? Join this talk and learn more about how to build web-based tooling with Eclipse technology and in particular with EMF.cloud!

Diagram editors in the web with Eclipse GLSP

Philip Langer (EclipseSource)

Maximilian Koegel (EclipseSource)

Do you want to build a modern, web-based diagram editor, maybe integrated into Eclipse Theia or VS Code? Are you wondering how to replace GMF or similar frameworks in your cloud-based tool and how to migrate existing diagram editors to the web? Then join our talk and learn about the Eclipse Graphical Language Server Platform (GLSP)!

DISCO: modeling satellite databases for all formats

Vincent HEMERY (CS GROUP)

The satellite database model formalizes the format of data exchanged between the satellite and the ground segment.

Too many formats coexist for describing the satellite database. Each program or working group chooses its own database modeler, its own packet interpreter… and fills all the gaps between tools – or during exchanges with other industrials – with transformation tools or even manual transformations. So why make yet another database modeler with its own format for the CNES?

Towards Xtext 2.20

Sebastian Zarnekow

Christian Dietrich (itemis AG)

Xtext is the de facto standard framework for the development of sophisticated domain specific languages (DSLs) in the Eclipse ecosystem and beyond. Even though the framework already provides a buckload of important features, we won’t become tired rethinking the architecture at scale or smaller features in isolation. Since Xtext version 2.20 is in the works, it’s about time to unveil a few of the planned features and work items.

A playful introduction to MBSE (interactive talk inside)

Etienne Juliot (OBEO)

The growth of complexity of systems requires to redesign the way we capture functions and architectural choices by moving from manual, non-scalable, document-oriented processes to models. Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is a systems engineering methodology that focuses on creating and exploiting domain models as the primary means of information exchange between engineers. Still today MBSE adoption among systems engineers is growing slowly. It is critical for industry to understand the difficulties of users and to find a way to democratize MBSE to a wide audience.

Modeling Symposium

Ed Merks

The modeling community is among the most active and diverse in Eclipse's ecosystem. The modeling symposium aims to provide a forum for community members to present a brief overview of their work. We will encourage 10 minute lightning talks to facilitate a broad range of speakers. The primary goal is to introduce new and interesting technologies. We will open up an informal call for submissions from the community. We will select from from those the submissions to provide a diverse slate of talks with a focus on areas not represented by other longer talks at this year's EclipseCon.

Stepping up Sirius - Tips and Tricks for your Visualization Journey!

Syed Aoun Raza (Robert Bosch GmbH)

Amal Jose Vallavanthara (Robert Bosch Gmbh)

Rakesh Nidavani (Robert Bosch Engineering and Business Solutions Private Limited)

“The easiest way to get your own Modelling tool” – claims Sirius.

But does Sirius really have what it takes to build an industrial scale project visualization and cover all the corner use cases. Sirius comes with its own challenges. We at Bosch pushed Sirius to its limits and developed a tool to visualize, optimize and analyse huge automotive models.

Make your transition to cloud-tooling now thanks to an hybrid RCP/web approach!

Cedric Brun (OBEO)

Attend this talk to discover what are the industrial solutions available today to create a web-ready modeling tool.

The tooling trends are to go to the web. The Eclipse community members are making lots of efforts to transition the existing modeling frameworks (EMF, Sirius, GLSP…) to be cloud ready. But this is still the beginning of the story preparing the foundation for the future of web-based tooling.

Hands-On Sirius: Create Graphical Editors for your Domain-Specific Language

Melanie Bats (OBEO)

Cedric Brun (OBEO)

Sirius is an Eclipse project that allows you to easily represent and edit information in a visual way.

Based on EMF, a workbench designed with Sirius provides a set of graphical model editors (diagrams, tables, trees, properties view) integrated in the Eclipse environment. The creation of this workbench is greatly simplified by the ability to test the editors in real time.

Sirius back to essentials

Melanie Bats (OBEO)

Eclipse Sirius is a field-proven technology for creating graphical modeling workbenches. The technology has been used in production for more than 10 years and led to the creation of an impressive number of graphical modelers. The Sirius website gallery demonstrates 45 of those workbenches recorded over the years.
