=== What is Event-B ===
 
'''Event-B''' is a formal method for system-level modelling and analysis. Key features of Event-B are the use of set theory as a modelling notation, the use of refinement to represent systems at different abstraction levels and the use of mathematical proof to verify consistency between refinement levels. More details are available in http://www.event-b.org/
 
 
 
=== What is Rodin ===
 
The '''Rodin Platform''' is an Eclipse-based IDE for Event-B that provides effective support for refinement and mathematical proof. The platform is open source, contributes to the Eclipse framework and is further extendable with plugins.

=== How do I install external plug-ins withou using Eclipse Update Manager ===
 
Although it is preferred to install additional plug-ins into the Rodin platform using the Update Manager of Eclipse, this might not always be practical. In this case, a manner to install these plug-ins is to emulate either manually or using ad-hoc scripts the operations normally performed by the Update Manager.
 
 
 
This manual installation of plug-ins is described in ''[[Installing external plug-ins manually]''.
