Fast DDS

The "Data Distribution Service for Real-Time Systems" (DDS) is an open standard from the Object Management Group (OMG) released in 2003 and revised in 2007. This standard is the specification of the API of a Publish-Subscribe Communication Middleware for distributed systems.

The eProsima Fast DDS framework generates the Publish/Subscribe code from the topic definition using an Interface Definition Language (IDL), allowing developers to focus on their application logic without bothering about the networking details.

eProsima Fast DDS is a free and open source software (Apache License 2.0) with a wide variety of features and tools as well as the option of commercial support. The software is used to communicate between multiple devices in a network and is well suited to robotics, IoT, automotive, and other critical applications.

DDS Blockset from MathWorks, provides apps and blocks for modeling and simulating software applications that publish or subscribe to Data Distribution Service (DDS) middleware. DDS Blockset links directly to the eProsima Fast DDS stack. The application generates CPP code and XML files from Simulink^® models (using Embedded Coder^®).
