1. Slide 1 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Hyperworx Platform Brief Modeling and deploying component software services with the Hyperworx™ platform 2003 MESDA Annual Conference November 14, Portland Maine

2. Slide 2 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Introduction What do we really need from software? Software production today Introduction to the Hyperworx platform Hyperworx Demo Questions & Answers

3. Slide 3 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Big Picture: What Do We Need? A better way to capture requirements A consistent design methodology Flexible implementation strategy Better code-reuse mechanisms Isolation from changing requirements Much better reliability and security

4. Slide 4 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Today: Programming Languages Procedural languages: Pseudo Object Oriented languages: Object Oriented languages: Different languages for different problems.

5. Slide 5 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Today: The Platform Wars Microsoft Windows ® Commercial UNIX distributions Linux distributions Platform choice driven by application availability and cost.

6. Slide 6 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Today: Code Re-Use Shared libraries Component technologies Web services Dynamic language modules Extensive hand integration required.

7. Slide 7 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Today: Tools & Methodologies Integrated development environments Each has strengths & weaknesses. No compelling advantages. Development methodologies Need to be enforced by tools.

8. Slide 8 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Emerging: Software Modeling IBM/Rational Unified Modeling Language (UML) de facto industry standard $$$ + Very Complicated Not worth it for small projects. “Runable” UML is the Holy Grail.

9. Slide 9 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Pause: Better Objects? UML 2.0 specification just ratified UML closely coupled to OOP Adoption continues to be low… Is Object Oriented Programming really the best approach for designing systems?

10. Slide 10 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Perspective: Objects & Systems Objects: Excellent way to describe small subsystems Production applications have 100’s, 1000’s of objects Systems: Complex, state-machine-actuated choreography of different objects OOP itself is poorly suited for describing this intricate dance.

11. Slide 11 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Perspective: Systems Systems are best described in terms of: State machines Data flow networks Describing systems in OOP hard!

12. Slide 12 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Perspective: Hardware Design Proven methodology Low defect rate High investment in design tools High investment in model libraries Consider hardware engineering: Intel 64-bit Itanium ® 2 CPU contains 410 million transistors…

13. Slide 13 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Perspective: Software Devices Can we adapt the hardware design process to the production of component software systems? Suppose we say that an object is analogous to a chip?

14. Slide 14 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. Aside: How Humans Think Our brains are good at: Patterns Relationships Our brains are bad at: State machines Parallel processing

15. Slide 15 Copyright © 2003 Encapsule Systems, Inc. The Hyperworx Platform Adapts high-level hardware design metaphor to component software Automates the tasks our brains can’t easily handle Leverages our innate ability to recognize patterns
