ObjecTime Limited of Kanata, Ontario was a software company with the known software product ObjecTime Developer.
ObjectTime was founded in 1992 by former employees of Bell-Northern Research who worked on the Telos project. The company developed the product of the same name.
In 1994, the ObjecTime language was renamed to "ROOM" (Real-Time Object-Oriented Modelling) and the Real-Time Object-Oriented Modeling (ROOM) book was published.
In 1998, a UML version of the ROOM language, created as the "UML-RT" profile, was made available.
