Embvue Announces its Generator-RTC Software Tool and Demonstrates 94% Project Savings on Requirement Formalization and Test Case Generation

In a real control system project Generator-RTC produced savings of 94% over existing manual methods for the requirements formalization/sanitization and test case generation.

2011-02-10
MONTREAL, QC, February 10, 2011 (Press-News.org) Embvue Inc. (www.embvue.com), a leading provider of certifiable embedded systems, network and testing products, and professional services for mission-critical, safety-critical and security-sensitive systems, announced today the availability of the first of its revolutionary Generator software tools - Generator-RTC.

Generator is a powerful system-level tool suite that enables efficient, automated, requirements-based testing of any electronics system, sub-system or software module.

Following on from the successful launch of its Generator tool suite on September 13th 2010, Embvue has been productizing a number of Generator software tools in order to make them available individually. The first of these tools to be made available is the Generator-RTC (Generator Requirements and Test Cases) tool. In a real control system project Generator-RTC produced savings of 94% over existing manual methods for the requirements formalization/sanitization and test case generation phases of the project.

Generator-RTC is the front end to the Generator tool suite which, through an intuitive GUI (Graphical User Interface), provides customers with a formalized mechanism to specify unambiguous and sanitized requirements. Having created a set of unambiguous formal requirements using Generator-RTC, the customer can then automatically generate 100% of all required test cases for those requirements in mere minutes, creating enormous savings for the project and significantly contributing to the reduction of project risk and improvement of product quality.

Embvue has collected data from a real project - available on Embvue's Generator web page at www.embvue.com/generator.php that demonstrates the savings that were realized by using the Generator-RTC tool alone. The web page also illustrates how Generator-RTC and the rest of the Generator tool suite apply throughout a typical product development lifecycle.

Although originally conceived for the aerospace and defense electronics market, Generator-RTC and the whole Generator tool suite is applicable to any industry or application in which a customer has requirements from which a product is to be conceived and against which the resultant product is to be tested and/or certified.

"We wanted to create a flexible Generator product offering and licensing approach that allows many more customers in a variety of markets to begin using Generator to reap the benefits in terms of risk and cost reduction and improved product quality," said Phil Cole, VP Sales and Marketing at Embvue. "Generator-RTC is the first Generator software tool to be made individually available. Generator-RTC alone provides huge value for our customers, but we are not stopping there. We are in the process of developing additions to the family which we will make available over the coming months to extend the reach of the Generator tools and provide even greater value through the product development lifecycle."

Embvue is an experienced, process-driven, systems and software engineering company specializing in the provision of products and services for customers developing complex, real time, mission or safety-critical embedded systems. Additional information is available at www.embvue.com.

What your TV habits may say about your fear of crime

2011-02-09
What's your favorite prime-time crime show? Do you enjoy the fictional world of "CSI" or "Law & Order," or do you find real-life tales like "The First 48" or "Dateline" more engrossing? Your answers to those questions may say a lot about your fears and attitudes about crime, a new study finds. Researchers from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln surveyed hundreds of adults about how often they watched various kinds of crime TV – made-up dramas, documentary-style "real crime" programs, and local and national news. They found that how each type of program depicts crime was ...

Brain's 'radio stations' have much to tell scientists

Brains radio stations have much to tell scientists
2011-02-09
Like listeners adjusting a high-tech radio, scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have tuned in to precise frequencies of brain activity to unleash new insights into how the brain works. "Analysis of brain function normally focuses on where brain activity happens and when," says Eric C. Leuthardt, MD. "What we've found is that the wavelength of the activity provides a third major branch of understanding brain physiology." Researchers used electrocorticography, a technique for monitoring the brain with a grid of electrodes temporarily implanted ...

Cannabis linked to earlier onset of psychosis

2011-02-09
A new study has provided the first conclusive evidence that cannabis use significantly hastens the onset of psychotic illnesses during the critical years of brain development – with possible life-long consequences. The first ever meta-analysis of more than 20,000 patients shows that smoking cannabis is associated with an earlier onset of psychotic illness by up to 2.7 years. The analysis, by an international team including Dr Matthew Large, from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) School of Psychiatry and Sydney's Prince of Wales Hospital, is published today in ...

Brain 'network maps' reveal clue to mental decline in old age

2011-02-09
The human brain operates as a highly interconnected small-world network, not as a collection of discrete regions as previously believed, with important implications for why many of us experience cognitive declines in old age, a new study shows. Australian researchers have mapped the brain's neural networks and for the first time linked them with specific cognitive functions, such as information processing and language. Results from the study are published in the prestigious Journal of Neuroscience. The researchers from the University of New South Wales are now examining ...

Western Australia's incredible underground orchid

2011-02-09
Rhizanthella gardneri is a cute, quirky and critically endangered orchid that lives all its life underground. It even blooms underground, making it virtually unique amongst plants. Last year, using radioactive tracers, scientists at The University of Western Australia showed that the orchid gets all its nutrients by parasitising fungi associated with the roots of broom bush, a woody shrub of the WA outback. Now, with less than 50 individuals left in the wild, scientists have made a timely and remarkable discovery about its genome. Despite the fact that this ...

Trial and error: The brain learns from mistakes

2011-02-09
In the developing brain, countless nerve connections are made which turn out to be inappropriate and as a result must eventually be removed. The process of establishing a neuronal network does not always prove precise or error free. Dr. Peter Scheiffele's research group at the Biozentrum of the University of Basel have been able to document this phenomenon using advanced microscopy techniques in the developing cerebellum, a brain area required for fine movement control. Dr. Scheiffele's group has discovered that a protein traditionally associated with bone development is ...

Possible crimes against humanity by Burmese military in Chin State, Burma

2011-02-09
The health impacts of human rights violations in Chin State, home to the Chin ethnic minority in Burma, are substantial and the indirect health outcomes of human rights violations probably dwarf the mortality from direct killings. These findings from a study by Richard Sollom from Physicians for Human Rights, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, and colleagues will be published in this week's PLoS Medicine and should encourage the international community to intensify its efforts to reduce human rights violations in Burma. The military junta, which seized power in Burma in 1962, ...

Heavy drinking in older teenagers has long- and short-term consequences

2011-02-09
In a systematic review of current evidence published in this week's PLoS Medicine, the authors—Jim McCambridge from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, London, UK, and colleagues—conclude that there is enough evidence to recommend that reducing drinking during late adolescence is likely to be important for preventing long-term adverse consequences of drinking, as well as protecting against more immediate harms. Although there is an urgent need for better studies in this area, research to date provides some evidence that high alcohol consumption in late adolescence ...

Limited lymph node removal for certain breast cancer does not appear to result in poorer survival

2011-02-09
CHICAGO – Among patients with early-stage breast cancer that had spread to a nearby lymph node and who received treatment that included lumpectomy and radiation therapy, women who just had the sentinel lymph node removed (the first lymph node to which cancer is likely to spread from the primary tumor) did not have worse survival than women who had more extensive axillary lymph node dissection (surgery to remove lymph nodes found in the armpit), according to a study in the February 9 issue of JAMA. Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) has been part of breast cancer surgery ...

Elevated levels of cardiac biomarkers following CABG surgery associated with increased risk of death

2011-02-09
CHICAGO – Patients who underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery and had elevated levels of the cardiac enzymes creatine kinase or troponin in the 24 hours following surgery had an associated intermediate and long-term increased risk of death, according to a study in the February 9 issue of JAMA. "About 400,000 coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) procedures are performed annually in the United States, giving public health significance to factors that affect the outcome of these procedures," the authors write. Increases in creatine kinase (CK-MB) or troponin levels ...
