Papyrus is a graphical modeling tool for UML2 and SysML, developed by a collaborative team across CEA and Atos Origin. The tool supports domain-specific modeling with customizations, diagram definitions, and model transformations while adhering to open-source principles. Upcoming enhancements include better customization, validation support, and additional UML elements in future releases.

modeler
 Relies on Eclipse implementation of standards
 Domain Specific Modeling Language (DSML) editor using
advanced UML2 profile support
 Example: SysML and MARTE languages support.

4. UML2 support (1/2)

5. UML2 support (2/2)

6. Make Papyrus yours!
• New Language support with UML2
profiles
• Define new diagrams for Papyrus
 Papyrus SysML diagrams are created by extending UML2
diagrams
 Customize appearance and behavior of the editors
• Integrate model transformations
 for example: QVTo transformations

7. Papyrus customizations
• Tool customization (Palette)
 Reuse and extend existing tools
 Customize behavior: stereotype application,
apperance, …
• Model tree view (Model explorer)
 Based on Modisco project
 Customize content and appearance
• Property view
 On-the-fly and static customization
 Add/remove editable properties

9. Listerel – Critical Software Lab
• CEA LIST – Esterel Technologies collaboration
• Characteristics
 Open source:
Shares components with Eclipse MDT Papyrus (EPL license)
 Open architecture:
SysML model API for data extract, import or modifications
 Professional support:
Unified look and feel with SCADE
• Main features
 System modeling based on SysML standard
 No duplication of efforts, no inconsistencies between
system structural description (SysML Block Diagrams)
and software behavioral description with SCADE Suite

10. Roadmap for next version (0.8)
• Join the Indigo release train
• Planned items:
 Consolidation of existing features
 e.g undo/redo management in multi-view context
 Enhance integration of customization abilities
 Adding validation support into diagrams
 Better display of stereotypes in diagrams
 Implementation of more UML elements
 e.g. Activity diagram
• Bugfixes!
