Obeo Designer Team 10.1 has been just published! This Obeo Designer collaborative feature allows users to store their models and representations created with Eclipse Sirius (diagrams, tables, matrices, trees) in a shared repository.   Version 10.1 brings significant performance improvements with the lazy loading of shared representations and the upgrade of CDO, the run-time persistence framework used by Obeo Designer Team.       This new release improves also the management of commit descriptions, allowing the users to better document their changes.   Discover more about Obeo Designer Team 10.1 and its new improvents on its website!...

  Organized by Obeo and Thales, a Capella Day will be held in Stuttgart on March 13th. This one-day conference will be full dedicated to Capella, the open source Model-Based Systems Engineering solution. Bringing together the community of Capella and Arcadia, Capella Day is a unique opportunity to meet the Capella ecosystem’s members and to learn from their expertise.   Thanks to Capella Day, you will deepen your knowledge of the Capella workbench or, if you're new to the community, discover the latest plugins and extensions that will unleash the potential of Capella: documents generation, collaborative work or simulation.   At the agenda of Capella Day: presentation of Capella and its ecosystem, presentation of Capella add-ons, concrete industrial use-cases.   Want to learn more about Capella and Capella Day? Feel free to visit the dedicated page. There, you will be informed about the upcoming complete program. Also, do not hesitate to follow @Capella...

Capella, the MBSE solution, is well represented in the latest Eclipse Newsletter of December, with no less than six attractive articles that describe the industrial needs addressed by this solution, its methodology and features, and its ecosystem (add-ons, related technologies, working group, etc.).   The first article introduces the others, presenting the main benefits of a Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) approach to take the challenges of complex systems engineering, with a focus on Capella which implements a field-proven MBSE method. The second focus on the Arcadia method, on which Capella is based. Arcadia covers the methodology and the high-level conceptual ontology and viewpoints. Capella has been purposely-built to provide the notation and diagrams needed to create models that exactly fit with Arcadia’s approach. Then, next article is about Capella Studio, which is based on Kitalpha, an integrated development environment for the development of model-based workb...

Once again, for the third consecutive edition, SiriusCon went too fast! We looked forward to attending this international conference on graphical modeling for a long time, and now we can't wait to organize the next one.   This 2017 edition gathered a lot of people, who came from 11 different countries (some of them even came from NORTH AMERICA!), and it was a pleasure to have all of them among the Sirius community. At SiriusCon 2017, every attendees, from beginner to advanced users, enjoyed several presentations with a specific focus on Eclipse Sirius itself, others about companion technologies and feedback from users who used these technologies to build their custom tools! We would like to thank all the speakers for their great contribution to the Sirius community. We were pleased to welcome Mike Milinkovich, the executive director of the Eclipse Foundation, who introduced the conference with a Keynote. He has an unique perspective regarding what happened in the Software Ind...

EclipseCon Europe 2017 is already over... It's again a successful edition that has just finished! As the latest editions, the Eclipse Foundation gathered more than 600 attendees from several open source communities, and we were part of the modeling one. At Ludwisburg, we had a busy schedule with 5 talks and a booth at the innovation market. And we came back really happy since we received several positive feedback about Eclipse Sirius & Eclipse Xtext, two model editors. A white paper has been just published about this attractive topic. Do not hesitate to read it. We also presented for the very first time M2Doc 1.0, the open source solution to generate documents from models. Get a better overview of M2Doc with this short video. And we were already there to the Modeling Guided Tour Day at the Unconference, a conference fully dedicated to the major components and projects of Eclipse Modeling project and the communities behind them. Now, next step for the modeli...
