Model-Based System Engineering (MBSE) and SysML tools are becoming more sophisticated in order to support the increased complexity of embedded and distributed applications. These new systems are larger, contain autonomous components, operate from the edge to the cloud, and often have strict requirements in terms of performance, scalability, robustness and security.
Two standards - SysML and Data Distribution Service™ (DDS™) - address the necessary end-to-end design requirements for model-based design. SysML defines the requirements of the system itself. DDS addresses the communications requirements between system components running across different computers, including connectivity, security and quality of service (QoS).
Dassault Systèmes has addressed the digital continuity and integration between the two worlds of MBSE to interface design with the new DDS Real-Time Communication Plugin. This software plugin provides a direct integration to RTI Connext®, the leading commercial software based on the DDS standard, enabling engineers to create model-based systems based on real-time communication flow across embedded and distributed systems. Engineers can go directly from the system model in SysML to RTI Connext for implementation and deployment of a distributed system.
