System Modeling

An upfront modeling and analysis approach can significant enhance productivity while at the same time reduce cost and risk. SystemVision and BridgePoint from Mentor Graphics are used throughout the world by systems engineers at companies who have recognized this.

SystemVision

Companies use SystemVision as a development environment to design, integrate, verify, and optimize their multi-discipline designs, consisting of digital, analog, and mixed-signal electrical hardware, software, sensors, actuators, and the mechanical plant.

Based on open standards and using the power of the VHDL-AMS modeling language, the use of SystemVision offers reduced development time, simplified HW/SW integration, and reduced risk of finding late-stage bugs that can jeopardize program success.

BridgePoint xtUML Suite

Companies use the BridgePoint xtUML suite to capture a self-documenting concept in UML, validate their concept by “executing” the specification, and translate it into an optimized implementation in either software or hardware.

BridgePoint is an advanced UML tool suite aimed at engineers developing sophisti- cated embedded systems. BridgePoint’s powerful xtUML approach supports execution of the UML and translation from UML to C, C++, SystemC, and AUTOSAR- compliant C.
