IBM_Partner_Plus_platinum_partner_mark_pos_gray80_RGB  IBMChampion2023_100x100

Use IBM Rhapsody to create complex systems and software more efficiently and with higher quality through model-based development. IBM Rhapsody supports many standardized and individual profiles, such as UML, SysML, UAF, or AUTOSAR, and helps to comply with safety standards such as DO-178, DO-178B/C, or ISO 26262.

IBM Rhapsody for systems engineering

IBM Rhapsody provides a systems engineering environment that lets you analyze and elaborate requirements, evaluate architectural aspects, and model systems using SysML or another standardized or customized profile. In parallel to engineering the model, you already begin validating requirements and system design by simulating model execution in IBM Rhapsody.

IBM Rhapsody for software development

With IBM Rhapsody you leverage an integrated environment for modeling software in UML, AUTOSAR, or other standardized or customized profiles. Debug your model and generate source code in C, C++, Java, and Ada. Import and visualize or further develop existing code in C, C++, Java, Ada, and C#.

Turn to us for your complete and perfectly tailored IBM Rhapsody solution. Tap into our deep expertise acquired in many successful customer projects. We offer support for deployment, usage workshops, training, customization, individual add-ons or enhancements, and integration into your lifecycle environment. We want your investment in IBM Rhapsody to pay off.

Cut project lead time through standards support

IBM Rhapsody simplifies the use of commonly used standard frameworks and profiles, making it easier for less experienced developers to comply with the standards required in a project. For example, the AUTOSAR profile facilitates the modeling and development of AUTOSAR-compliant components, often a mandatory requirement in automotive industry projects.

Detect and resolve errors earlier in the project

With IBM Rhapsody, you start validating your design in parallel to creating the model. Simulate model execution within IBM Rhapsody and explore model behavior to identify potential flaws or errors in the requirements or in your design already in this early stage of your project. Take corrective action early, when it is less expensive.

Seamlessly move from systems engineering to software development

Take advantage of the design work already done at the system level and make it the foundation for modeling the software. The M2M Framework for IBM Rhapsody lets you automatically transfer your system design into your software design. As an example, transform a SysML model into an AUTOSAR model and continue to develop your AUTOSAR-compliant software in IBM Rhapsody.

Compliance with safety standards made easier

IBM Rhapsody supports a range of prevalent standards for the development of safety-critical systems, e.g. DO-178, DO-178B/C, or ISO 26262 or MISRA-compliant source code generation. Adherence to these frequently demanded safety standards becomes much easier with IBM Rhapsody.

Stay on target through bi-directional traceability

Link your model in IBM Rhapsody to the requirements in IBM DOORS Next or another requirements management tool. By establishing a connection between a requirement and the model element that implements that requirement, you gain clarity about the agreed project scope and the progress against that scope.

IBM Engineering Systems Design Rhapsody Features

Model-based systems engineering

IBM Rhapsody is your environment for iterative requirements analysis and refinement, subsequent functional analysis and elaboration of processes and systems behavior, and, finally, architecture modeling. Validate and verify the evolving model early in the process through simulating model execution in IBM Rhapsody.

Reuse existing code

For reuse of existing code in your IBM Rhapsody project, import the code module into your Rhapsody model. The imported module is stored as an external element in IBM Rhapsody and can be integrated into your model and visualized.

Developing safety-critical systems

Use IBM Rhapsody to develop safety-critical systems compliant with respective standards. IBM Rhapsody comes with various profiles that include already many of the prerequisites needed for developing safety-critical systems. Integrate with IBM DOORS for end-to-end traceability and complement with SodiusWillert Embedded UML RXF-Cert to generate certifiable code.

Dynamic model-code associativity

Activate this function in bi-directional mode and every change you make to the model is reflected almost simultaneously in the corresponding source code. And, if you edit the code, the model is automatically updated accordingly. Thus, model and code are always in sync without you explicitly initiating code generation.

Implementing AUTOSAR components

The typical elements of AUTOSAR, such as software, electronic control units, etc., are already defined in the AUTOSAR profile in IBM Rhapsody. Develop AUTOSAR compliant components using this profile without in-depth AUTOSAR knowledge. IBM Rhapsody will automatically transform your AUTOSAR component model into a UML model.
