Design, visualize, and manage complex systems and software with clarity to drive innovation
Proven modeling solution
IBM Engineering Rhapsody (Rational Rhapsody) and its family of products offers a proven solution for modeling and systems design activities that allows you to manage the complexity many organizations face with product and systems development.
Get continuous validation through rapid simulation, prototyping and execution to address errors earlier when they are less costly to fix.
Share, collaborate and review your engineering lifecycle artifacts created with Engineering Rhapsody or other design tools.
An intuitive interface enables users to tailor the tool to their specific needs, facilitating easier model visualization.
Support industry standards like ISO 26262, ensuring your systems meet critical safety and regulatory requirements efficiently.
Features
The software automatically creates systems specifications, interface design documents and systems test cases using SysML, UML, UAF, as well as AUTOSAR import and export capability.
It offers a low-cost integrated software engineering environment to graphically architect C++, C or Java applications using UML.
IBM Engineering Rhapsody Model Manager helps cross-discipline teams collaborate, share, review and manage designs and models using a central repository with web-based access. Suppliers and customers can access information through a web client. The software automates design reviews with stakeholders to facilitate the communication of requirements, speed decision-making and improve quality. You can create comprehensive documentation for specifications, communication, compliance and reporting.
Rhapsody Designer includes all the capabilities of Rhapsody Architect for Systems Engineers plus allows you to prototype, simulate and execute designs for early validation of requirements, architecture and behavior. It is a model-based systems engineering (MBSE) environment using the industry-standard SysML and UML. It helps you adapt to changing customer requirements, improves productivity and reduces time-to-market with advanced validation and simulation.
Rhapsody Developer offers an embedded and real-time agile software engineering environment with full application generation for C++, C, Java and Ada (including MISRA-C and MISRA-C++). It also provides rapid prototyping and simulation for design-level debugging, automated build generation for continuous integration and support for safety-critical software lifecycle—in addition to the capabilities of Rhapsody Architect for Software.
IBM Rhapsody Model-Driven Development (MDD) includes the AUTOSAR Extension. This powerful combination accelerates and simplifies the automotive software development process, allowing developers to focus on creating robust and efficient applications that meet today's demanding industry requirements.
