Presentation made at EclipseCon France. This slide deck shows the progress made in the creation of Papyrus for Real Time, one of the first products in the Eclipse Papyrus product line. Papyrus-RT is a modeling tool implementing the UML-RT domain specific language targeting reactive embedded and cyber-physical systems.

Hybrid textual-graphical Modeling
Graphical Representation
• Clearly show the relationship
between elements
• Improves comprehension and
understanding in some cases,
such as with state machines or
with the structure of an
application
Textual Representation
• Faster model creation
• Can be modified with standard light
weight editors or with a language
aware editor
• Standard CM tools and diff/merge
tools can be used. For graphical, the
diff/merge must be language aware
to provide reasonable performance

Why not have both and allow the user to choose based on what is
best for their needs at the time or task involved?
