|
| <p>Eclipse is the most vibrant and active open source community in the Java components
|
| and tooling arena. The Eclipse platform was first targeted at building an extensible IDE component
|
| framework. It has since evolved into a general-purpose platform for building extensible
|
| software applications of all kinds in desktop environment.
|
|
|
| <p>Now, Eclipse IDE is widely adopted by most of the software providers and industries.
|
| However, the adoption of Eclipse's runtime platform in domain application is limited
|
| due to the complexity of UI development and the lack of Web support application
|
| environments. Eclipse's main obstacle is to be used widely in ERP and BPMS in Manufacturing,
|
| Supply Chain, Finances, Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Human Resources,
|
| Warehouse Management and Decision Support System. The traditional UI development in
|
| programming language in Eclipse presents the following drawbacks: |
| <ul>
|
|
|
| <li>High technology pre-requisite as UI developer</li>
|
| <li>Difficult to separate UI appearance and business logic</li>
|
| <li>Poor reusability and low extensibility</li>
|
| <li>Very hard to build powerful development tools</li> |
| </ul>
|
|
|
| <p>In the meantime, the software market has changed dramatically. More and more
|
| applications are now deployed in diverse environments such as web servers,
|
| web browsers and embedded clients applications. Some new technologies emerge and
|
| become mature like Animation, Data Binding, Declarative UI, Visual Design tools and
|
| MDE engineering system. Some integrated UI solutions are available in other development languages and
|
| environments to develop fashion application. </p>
|
|
|
| <p>A new flexible and high extensible solution is absolutely necessary to simplify
|
| development of software components and component-based applications to meet the
|
| demands of the ever changing computing landscape.
|
|
|
| Soyatec has worked on this area since early 2006. And all of our research and
|
| development have contributed to Eclipse e4 for XWT and two visual designers, and in
|
| modeling PMF for UI generation.</p>
|
|
|
| <p>All these actions show that Yves Yang, CEO of Soyatec, quickly understood 1) the
|
| purpose, impacts and interests of Eclipse for the software community; 2) the role of being
|
| an active and contributive Eclipse member; and 3) the connections that can be established either
|
| between Eclipse members or between the Eclipse community and external software
|
| actors, such as Microsoft.</p>
|
|
|
| <p>Moreover, all these contributions reflect the values of Soyatec: being innovative
|
| and offering high-level technical and industry reliable solutions,
|
| which are profitable to the whole Eclipse community and software industry.</p>
|
|
|
| <p>The will of Yves Yang is to continue to share these
|
| values at the level of the Eclipse Foundation Board of Directors.</p>

|
| Yves Yang has more than 20 years of experience in OO software development and deep
|
| knowledge mainly on ODBMS first, and then Eclipse since 2002.
|
|
|
| As an architect, he has worked in several important applications in Telecom, Defense
|
| and Finance. He has a rich experience in industry software development and has a
|
| good understanding of market needs.
|
|
|
| In Eclipse, he was the chief architect of the first Eclipse UML plugin from 2002 to
|
| early 2006. Today, he is the project leader of ESL, VE and PMF Eclipse projects,
|
| and he is one of the main contributors of the e4 project. He leads and develops a
|
| declarative UI (XWT) and two Visual tools: XWT Designer and e4 Workbench Designer.
|
|
|
| His activities focus mainly on the Modeling UI, Declarative UI, Visual UI Tools, and
|
| the adoption of Eclipse solutions by the software industry.
