Rapid development, testability, meeting cost reduction goals and creating quality deliverables are the drivers behind how the Telelogic® Rhapsody® modeling tool works. Telelogic® Rhapsody® does this by pairing the graphical Unified Modeling Language (UML) and the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) with advanced systems design and analysis capabilities, resulting in a complete model-driven development environment that spans the entire process, from requirements capture through analysis, design, implementation, and test. Quite simply, the new design automation tool reduces complexity, drives productivity and keeps systems and software engineers working in synch for faster, better quality results the first time through the design process.
Model-Driven Development (MDD) technology enables professionals to achieve unparalleled productivity gains over traditional document driven approaches by enabling users to specify the system design and architecture graphically, simulate and automatically validate the system as it is being built. This allows engineers and developers to ultimately produce a quality systems specification that is correct, non-ambiguous and completely satisfies original requirements.
Through Telelogic Rhapsody's Model Driven Architecture (MDA) support, one can rapidly target the Platform Independent Model (PIM) to a real-time embedded operating system in seconds.
