Project Definitions

A model-driven code generation utility for the embedded system, modeled using ProCom model. Part of ongoing research in the University for the Progress project Developed at MdH

Why Procom Project? Non existence of the code generation utility for the embedded system modeled using ProCom model. Mapping the ProCom model to executable code.

Procom Project Benefits? An integrated platform to design & develop embedded- systems in a common IDE Enables rapid application development

Interaction with Progress- IDE? Interaction with Progress-IDE via XML files Final Product? A Plug-in integrated in Progress-IDE

ProgressIDE

Generated XML File

Refine XML Schema

Parse XML & store tags

Identify individual elements

Identify dependencies among components

And then….

Generate Java Code

View Code

Compile Code

Execute Code

Clean Code

Requirements

Fulfilled Requirements? XML Parsing Identifying Mapping Rules Code Generation Code Compilation Code Execution Plug-in for Progress-IDE Investigated Glue Code Generation

Additional Requirements? XML Schema Dropped Requirements? Compilation & Execution of Glue Code

Experiences and Challenges

Communication strategies –In face-to-face meetings Slow Conversation speed Team members availability –Online Meetings Preferred text chat over voice chat More online meetings rather than face-to-face meetings –Emphasis on use of latest communication technologies

Experiences and Challenges Skype Google Groups Online

Experiences and Challenges Time Limitations –Because of exams and assignments of other courses What we Like about the project –Team Work –Challenging Project –Opportunity to interact with knowledgeable Supervisors and Professors
