Description:
Graphical Programming Speeds Software Development

The increasing complexity of embedded software means engineering groups must enhance their software development processes to meet strict time-to-market, cost and product-quality constraints.
For many years, embedded system designers have looked to Wind River to provide leading productivity tools and services for embedded software application projects in the automotive, aerospace, consumer electronics, telecommunications, data communications, and office automation industries.

In recent years, the software industry has embraced the use of graphical software specification and code generation technology to model the behavior of embedded applications and improve the software development process. BetterState™ from Wind River provides powerful graphical programming capabilities based on such graphical constructs as Statecharts, State Transition Diagrams, and Flowcharts.
BetterState facilitates software development with diagrams that are easy to comprehend and maintain. It also speeds programming with rapid prototyping, automatic code generation and faster design iterations.

BetterState-Optimized Code in Three Easy Steps

Our BetterState graphical programming tool is optimized for each phase of your embedded software development process. Using BetterState requires just three simple steps to take your software from specified requirements to production-ready software modules:

1. Specification of software modules-you specify modular behavioral
models using BetterState's advanced graphical constructs.

2. Implementation of software modules via automatic code generation in C, C++ or Java™ for standalone or RTOS-based applications, and integration within your application framework.

3. Graphical debugging of software modules that execute on a host or on a target.
