eTrice is a modeling toolset for developing event-driven, distributed embedded systems using the Real Time Object Oriented Modeling (ROOM) language. It includes graphical and textual editors to model system structure using hierarchical actors and ports, and state machines to model behavior. The tool generates code for Java, C++ and C and enables model-level debugging. The presentation demonstrates eTrice and outlines plans to release version 0.1 in 2011 with Java support and conduct an automation control system pilot project.
