Tasking Event-B is the extension of Event-B for defining concurrent systems sharing data, for details see the [[Tasking Event-B Overview]] page. For more information contact Andy Edmunds - University of Southampton - mailto:ae2@ecs.soton.ac.uk
Mathematical extensions have been co-developed by Systerel (for the Core Rodin Platform) and Southampton (for the Theory plug-in). The main purpose of this new feature was to provide the Rodin user with a way to extend the standard Event-B mathematical language by supporting user-defined operators, basic predicates and algebraic types. Along with these additional notations, the user can also define new proof rules (proof extensions).  
+
=== Sensing and Actuating for Tasking Event-B ===
 +
Version 1.0.4. Sensing and actuating events, and an Environ Machine have been added to allow simulation of the environment and implementation using memory mapped IO.
  
The Theory plugin provides, among other things, a user-friendly mechanism to extend the Event-B mathematical language as well as the prover. The theory component is used to hold mathematical extensions (datatypes, operators with direct definitions, operators with recursive definitions and operators with axiomatic definitions), and proof extensions (polymorphic theorems, rewrite and inference rules). Theories are developed in the workspace (akin to models), and are subject to static checking and proof obligation generation. Proof obligations generated from theories ensure any contributed extensions do not compromise the soundness of the existing infrastructure for modelling and proof. In essence, the Theory plugin provides a systematic platform for defining, validating and using extensions while exploiting the benefits brought by proof obligations.
+
A new case study has been produced that makes use of these new features, details available at http://wiki.event-b.org/index.php/Event-B_Examples
  
== Motivations / Decisions ==
+
The example/tutorial projects, and also and a Bundled Windows version, are available in the [http://deploy-eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/304/ Deploy E-Prints archive].
In the past 9 months, the development of the Theory plugin resulted in the following additions:
 
  
* Support for polymorphic theorems in proofs:

The projects are also available from the [https://codegenerationd.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/codegenerationd/Examples/HeatingController_Tutorial_v0.1.4/ Examples SVN site].
* Added Support of Axiomatic Definitions:

Tasking Event-B is the extension of Event-B for defining concurrent systems sharing data, for details see the Tasking Event-B Overview page. For more information contact Andy Edmunds - University of Southampton - mailto:ae2@ecs.soton.ac.uk

Sensing and Actuating for Tasking Event-B

Version 1.0.4. Sensing and actuating events, and an Environ Machine have been added to allow simulation of the environment and implementation using memory mapped IO.

A new case study has been produced that makes use of these new features, details available at http://wiki.event-b.org/index.php/Event-B_Examples

The example/tutorial projects, and also and a Bundled Windows version, are available in the Deploy E-Prints archive.

The projects are also available from the Examples SVN site.

Sources for Tasking Event-B and Code Generators are available from a branch on the Rodin SVN site.

The Code Generation Demonstrator for Rodin 2.1.x

Released 24 January 2011.

The Rodin 2.1.x compatible code generation demonstrator plug-ins have been released into the Rodin Sourceforge repository at:

 https://rodin-b-sharp.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rodin-b-sharp/trunk/CodeGeneration 

The update-site is available through the Rodin update site in the Utilities category.

The code generation tutorial examples are available for download at:

Release History

The Code Generation Demonstrator for Rodin 1.3.x

First release: 30 November 2010.

available from:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/codegenerationd/files/

The zip file contains a windows XP bundle, and a Windows V7 bundle. Alternatively, if you wish to build using an update-site, this is also included in the zip file, along with some notes on installation. However, note that the demonstrator tool is only compatible with Rodin 1.3.

A simple shared buffer example is provided. This will form the basis of a tutorial (which is work in progress). The WindowsBundles directory contains a Rodin 1.3.1 platform with the Code Generation plug-ins, together with a patch plug-in. The patch plug-in is required to correct an inconsistency in the org.eventb.emf.persistence plug-in. For the bundles, simply extract the appropriate zip file into a directory and run the rodin.exe. The plug-ins are pre-installed - the only configuration necessary may be to switch workspace to <installPath>\rodin1.3bWin7\workspace. When using the update-site the example projects, and the project forming the basis of a simple tutorial, are provided in the accompanying zip file. These should be imported manually.

Mac users - no bundled version available at present, but use the update site in the 'advanced' folder.

A step-by-step Code Generation Tutorial is available

About the Initial Release

The Code Generation (CG) Feature in the initial release is a demonstration tool; a proof of concept, rather than a prototype. The tool has no static checker and, therefore, there will be a heavy reliance on docs and dialogue to facilitate exploration of the tools and concepts.

Source Code

The sources are available from,

https://codegenerationd.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/codegenerationd

Note - I used Eclipse 3.5 Galileo, and you will need to install (or have sources from) Epsilon's interim update site. There is also dependency on Camille v2.0.0
