Tool Mentor: Arcticus Rubus Designer
Relationships
Main Description

Arcticus have created an EAST-ADL plugin for Rubus Designer to enable the user to edit and manipulate an EAST-ADL model. The plugin is in the progress of adding support for TADL2 timing extensions.

The focus of the implementation of EAST-ADL has been on the design and analysis function levels including the timing model elements.

The plugin can read and write the EAXML exchange file format as well as using the native Rubus-EADL file format.

The implementation of the plugin is following the 2.1.9 specification of EAST-ADL.

EAST-ADL models can be transformed into Rubus Component Model for pre run-time and run-time analysis and synthesis into a complete run-time system.
