XACT: Model based design for developers

Xact is a tool for configuring and deploying software intensive systems, from simulations running on cloud infrastructure to distributed intelligent sensing systems running on edge devices.

Xact defines a unified configuration data structure for specifying component dependencies and for configuring various types of messaging middleware, enabling distributed dataflow systems to be rapidly and conveniently described and deployed.

It is intended to support model based systems and software engineering processes and to be a foundation for future design automation tools.
