[ciao-users] CoSMIC 0.7.4.5 now available
Sumant Tambe
The Component Synthesis using Model-Integrated Computing (CoSMIC)
release 0.7.4.5 is out and installers are available for download at
http://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/cosmic/html/download.html
The CoSMIC tool suite consists of
o Platform-Independent Component Modeling Language (PICML), which is a
Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) based paradigm for modeling CORBA
Component Model (CCM) based applications, which use the latest
Deployment and Configuration Specification (D&C) for configuration and
deployment.
o Component QoS Modeling Language (CQML), which allows PICML-based
models to capture the higher level QoS design intent and helps
generate QoS configuration metadata from annotated models.
o DDS QoS Modeling Language (DQML), allows modeling of large number QoS
policies provided by the OMG Data Distribution Service (DDS).
o Language for Embedded Query and Traversal (LEESA), which is a
domain-specific embedded language (DSEL) in C++ that provides a
succinct and expressive notation for writing object structure (model)
traversal.
The new features that are introduced in the latest version are
summarized below:
. Temporarily disabled the model intelligence feature that
auto-generates the default artifacts when a new component is added to
the model. This feature will be released in the next version
of PICML/CoSMIC. Contact: James Hill <hi...@cs.iupui.edu>
. LEESA ships with a new Perl script called gen-pairs.pl that extends
Udm generated header file with additional meta-information
(IsDescendant and VisitorAsIndex) to speed up compilation.
Please let us know if you run into any problems.
Thanks,
Sumant.
