Among the products being unveiled is an upgrade to IBM Rational Test Real-Time, for testing to meet industry standards such as Defense Standard 00-55 and MISRA (Motor Industry Software Reliability Association). Static analysis, runtime analysis and component-testing are featured; the Eclipse tools platform is leveraged. Host and target platforms include C, C++, Ada and Java. Developers can ensure the quality of real-time and embedded systems, IBM said. Also introduced are updated versions of IBM Rational Systems Developer and IBM Rational Software Modeler, which are design and development tools for model-driven development via UML (Unified Modeling Language) 2.1. These have been updated with the new UML Profile for DoDAF (Department of Defense Architecture Framework) and MoDAF (UK Ministry of Defense Architecture Framework) standards defined by the Object Management Group, which describe enterprise architectures in such a way that the architectures can be exchanged and analyzed. These two products are built on top of the Eclipse platform. Technology Industry
