Model-driven development speeds embedded design

Green Hills Software has extended the integration between its Integrity RTOS and Multi IDE and the I-Logix's Rhapsody model-driven development environment.

Green Hills Software has extended the integration between its Integrity RTOS and Multi IDE and the I-Logix's Rhapsody model-driven development (MDD) environment.

The enhanced integration supports and accelerates the entire application development lifecycle-from system analysis and specification to real-time software design, implementation and testing - with all tools tightly integrated from end to end.

Using models based on the Unified Modelling Language 2.0 (UML) to capture and validate an embedded application design, Rhapsody can now automatically generate optimised code for the Green Hills C/C++ and Ada compilers.

Once compiled, generated code can be dynamically downloaded and run on the Integrity or Integrity 178B RTOSs using the Multi and AdaMulti IDEs.

During debugging, the Multi source-level debugger is completely synchronised with the Rhapsody UML models.

This integration significantly increases productivity
