 | 25 Sep 2007 This plug-in was created as an evolution to the RUP for Systems Engineering Plug-in V3.0, which is now built into the RMC released library.
System requirements
You must have IBM® Rational® Method Composer V7.2 installed to use this plug-in.
Purpose
This plug-in was created as an evolution to the RUP-SE v3.0 Plug-In which is now built into the RMC released library. This plug-in will replace the current RUP-SE plug-in shipping with the RMC tool. The MDSD Plug-in was developed with and for use with RMC v7.2. It is not compatible with any prior version to the RMC tool. The Plug-In now contains a MDSD Capability Pattern and is also now a full life-cycle delivery process. It is intended that this plug-in will evolve to support the needs of the Systems Development and Systems Engineering communities, both internal to and external to IBM.
