Cyber physical system modelling tool with FMI V2.0 support
The tool imports a Functional Mockup Unit (FMU) and analyzes its inputs and outputs. A mapping between the SDL model and the FMU is then defined through a specific interface. Both co-simulation and model exchange modes are supported. PragmaDev Studio acts as a “master” / “importing” tool. The tool distribution contains an example with an OpenModelica FMU and an example with a Scade Suite FMU.
On one hand PragmaDev Studio could import requirements files in csv format and keep links between the textual requirements, the model, and the test. On the other hand PragmaDev Studio had an integration with Reqtify traceability tool. Tracing information in the model could be read by Reqtify. PragmaDev Studio and Reqtify integration goes one step further and makes the link between PragmaDev requirements table and Reqtify.
PragmaDev Studio V5.3 also introduced a declaration wizard. A right click in the declaration symbol drops a menu with all the possible type declarations. As for a new type declaration, a wizard for textual statements helps users to model their system. A statement template is then inserted making model design quick and easy. A gauge widget has been introduced in the prototyping GUI. It is a very nice and realistic way of displaying a value between 0 and 100. And this is very useful when co-simulating a clock based model through the FMI interface.
“Event driven approach and clock based approach are fundamentally different. I often came across project leaders that had a tough trade-off to make between these approaches and none of the solution was fully satisfactory. Now if the models can be easily connected and simulated the user can have the best of both worlds. That is what we have done with the support of FMI2.0.” explains Emmanuel Gaudin, PragmaDev Founder & CEO.
