Papyrus is a dedicated tool for modelling within UML2. This open source tool is based on the Eclipse environment.
Key features:
* Eclipse UML2 compliance
* Full respect of the UML2 standard as defined by the OMG
* Full respect of the DI2 (Diagram Interchange ) standard
* Extendable architecture of Papyrus that allows users to add new diagrams, new code generators, etc.
* Profile development support facilities for UML2 profiles
* Nested profiles support
openArchitectureWare (oAW) is a modular MDA/MDD generator framework implemented in Java(TM). It supports parsing of arbitrary models, and a language family to check and transform models as well as generate code based on them. Supporting editors are based on the Eclipse platform. OAW has strong support for EMF (Eclipse Modelling Framework) based models but can work with other models, too (e.g. UML2, XML or simple JavaBeans) At the core there is a workflow engine allowing the definition of generator/transformation workflows. A number of prebuilt workflow components can be used for reading and instantiating models, checking them for constraint violations, transforming them into other models and then finally, for generating code.
While most development environments, like Microsoft Visual Studio and Borland JBuilder are code-driven development environments, ArchStudio focuses on software development from the perspective of software and systems architecture.
MODELWARE has three major objectives: * To develop a solution based on MDD techniques, capable of delivering a 15-20% increase of software systems development productivity within 2 years * To lead the industrialisation of the solution. * To e
Xholon enables you to model dynamic event-driven applications using concepts from the Unified Modeling Language (UML 2) and from Real-Time Object-Oriented Modeling (ROOM) (inheritance, composite structure, ports, state machines, etc.) expressed in XML, XP
