Background: Matlab Simulink  Matlab : multi-paradigm numerical computation o matrix operations, algorithm development, data visualization etc.  Simulink : dataflow modeling environment o Modeling and simulating dynamic systems o Block diagram based  Large user base > 1M o Automotive o Avionics o Railway o Etc. Eclipsecon 2015 3

Motivation: yet another tool integration  Started in 2011 (as a second iteration) o Provide HW-SW allocation for early simulation of avionics systems o Input: Low-level Simulink libraries o Output: Integrated HW-SW Simulink model  Allocation defined on high abstraction level  Eclipse o Hierarchical graph based visualizations  yFiles + EMF-IncQuery Viewers o On-the-fly model validation  EMF-IncQuery o Generic bridge between Matlab Simulink and Eclipse  Massif Eclipsecon 2015 4

Massif Integrating Eclipse and Matlab Simulink Eclipsecon 2015

Massif – Eclipse-Matlab Simulink bridge  Generic Bridge between Matlab Simulink and Eclipse o Import/Export Matlab Simulink systems and libraries o Traceability for incremental processing o Multiple import options for different usage scenarios • e.g., analysis or allocation  User-friendly EMF representation o Manipulating systems/libraries directly on EMF level o Support for easier navigability  Works with Matlab license server o Can connect to a running Matlab instance  Pure Java realization, EPL license o Project specific constraint! Eclipsecon 2015 6

Massif- architecture overview  Communicating with Matlab Matlab Simulink Commads/ results o Java RMI based Matlab communication Matlab Command System o Server initialized within Evaluator Server Matlab • Java Matlab Interface Commads/ results traceability o Works with license server  Generic EMF metamodel Matlab Comand Metamodel Processor o EMF level operations [Ecore] translated into instance High level Matlab commands operations Matlab o Same library mechanism as System in Matlab Simulink [EMF] Eclipse o FQN based traceability Eclipsecon 2015 7

Feature set What Massif can do Eclipsecon 2015

Import/export models DEMO  Tool configuration and initialization  Import and export of Matlab Simulink systems o Import strategies  Adding/deleting an element to/from the EMF model o Incremental refreshing Eclipsecon 2015 9

Shallow import option  Only blocks within non-referred systems are imported hierarchically System A Library A System A Block Block 1 Block 1 Lib1 Model Model Block Block Reference Reference 2 2 block block Block Block 4 3 System B Matlab Simulink – system Eclipse - EMF Eclipsecon 2015 10

Deep import option  Each block inside each subsystem is imported. Each referenced model is imported as an individual model with direct model referencing in the parent model System A Library A System A Block Block 1 Block 1 Lib1 Model Model Block Block Reference Reference 2 2 block block System B Block Block Block Block 4 3 4 3 System B Matlab Simulink – system Eclipse - EMF Eclipsecon 2015 12

Flattening import option  Each model reference block is imported as though it was a subsystem System A Library A System A Block Block 1 Block 1 Lib1 Model Model Block Block Reference Reference 2 2 block block System B Block Block Block Block 4 3 4 3 System B Matlab Simulink – system Eclipse - EMF Eclipsecon 2015 13

Referencing import option  For blocks with active library links, each source library is imported once as an individual model (but may be referenced multiple times) System A Library A System A Library A Block Block 1 Block 1 Block Lib1 Lib1 Model Model Block Block Reference Reference 2 2 block block System B Block Block Block Block 4 3 4 3 System B Matlab Simulink – system Eclipse - EMF Eclipsecon 2015 15

Additional Features  Import Filters o For leaving out unwanted elements/details from imported models  Bus creator and selector configuration o Configured via string (fqn like) in Matlab Simulink o Use EMF EReferences to define and Massif automatically calculates configuration  Easier Block-to-Block navigability o Derived EReferences defined by EMF-IncQuery Eclipsecon 2015 16

OSLC API DEMO  Open Services for Matlab Simulink Queries /results Lifecycle Collaboration Matlab (OSLC) Matlab Command System o API for tool integration Evaluator Server Queries/  Live OSLC API for Matlab results Simulink Comand o Dynamically executes Eclipse Lyo Evaluator queries directly on the Matlab side Queries/ results o Uses the same Command Matlab Evaluator Server System o Based on Eclipse Lyo resource Apache Tomcat Eclipsecon 2015 17

Conclusions What we have done and where to move forward Eclipsecon 2015

Conclusions  Initial version is out o Basic import/export features supported o EMF level handling of Simulink models  Experience o Avionics • Largest model took ~2 hours  o Automotive • 5k elements within minutes  o Typical application scenarios • Offline processing of EMF representations • Library import  instance model generation on EMF side Eclipsecon 2015 19
