SDL-RT has been designed for the real time developer teams looking for graphical representations of traditional concepts used in their domain without leaving behind legacy code and years of experience.
It brings abstraction with graphical representations to define:
At the same time it keeps precision of traditionnal techniques because C language is embedded in SDL-RT. Last but not least, SDL-RT is object oriented where it needs to be. UML class diagram is part of SDL-RT and specific graphical representations have been defined to represent active classes (tasks) and passive classes (C++ objects). Active classes represent functional blocks or tasks and specialization allows to graphically and easily re-use a real time software component. SDL-RT has been designed by real time developers for real time developers. If you want to comment or suggest improvements please do not hesitate to send us a mail.

SDL-RT prime use is to develop real time and embedded software. SDL-RT is based on tasks running concurrently that exchange information through messages and synchronize with each other using semaphores. Any development team willing to base their development on a Real Time Operating System (RTOS) should have a look at SDL-RT.
SDL-RT has been designed so that tools supporting it can provide:
SDL-RT concepts are so close to RTOS concepts that integration with any RTOS, RTOS simulator, or target debuger is straightforward. These concepts are used in a variety of domains such as:

A good standard should meet three obvious basic conditions:
SDL-RT standard is right here for free in html or pdf format. It does not use any weird notations and is full of examples. Embedding C language in SDL has been implemented in very large companies in an informal way. SDL-RT is just formalizing techniques that have been proven useful for years. SDL-RT respects techniques that have been used for decades. In that sense it is an evolution in real time programming not a revolution that would throw everything away. |
