Application for graphical design of Real-time Systems in Ada

Application for graphical design of Real-time Systems in Ada

[Ivan Paniagua]

Hello everybody.

I'm developing an application for graphical design of Real-time
Systems that generate Ada code.

I would like to know if there is a similar application. Can anybody
help me?

If there is somebody interested in my work I will be happy to talk to.

Thank you very much.

I'm aware about one, STOOD. Some information may be found at:
http://www.tni.fr/tni/offre/stood/index.eng.html
I saw it at one of my study friends, when we were doing our realtime
classes project. I have not seen the genereated code, but the diagrams
looked quite nice.

I was thinking about similar project (especially, when I had to draw 
daigrams in not HOOD aware tool). However, last half of the year I'm
spending doing my master thesis and had to abandon the idea for the 
moment.

There is another solution. There exists nice drawing tool called Dia 
(free, available under Linux and Widows, some search on google should 
bring you the homepage). I think it should be possible to extend it 
with new stencils. As I saw, it saves the output in XML, so using 
some processing it should be possible to generate Ada code from it. 

Cheers,
Mike

Thank you Mike for your answer.

My apologies if I make mistakes in my speech, i'm spanish and I don't
write english fluently.

I'm not sure if Stood is what I'm looking for. I will explain what my
application does. It's a graphical interface to design real time
systems in a top-down model based in ADARTS model. You must to specify
the devices your system has to interact to in a first phase and then
you define your system in detail in four more phases. In the last
phase you can generate an Ada skeleton. I could send you some screens.

This application is our (we are two students) thesis necesary to end
our university education. We want to compare this project with other
ones to evaluate it.

Gracias y un saludo,
Ivan

Unfortunately, I have no idea what ADARTS is, so ...

... so send me the screens to vinnie@inetia.pl.

I just recalled, that there is another application giving some aid
in real-time design. It is called Mast - Modeling and Analysis Suite
for Real-Time Applications. It is available at: http://mast.unican.es/
and was done by people from University of Cantabria, in Spain. Maybe 
you have closer contact with them?

So, good luck,
Mike
