Infrastructure/Communications
Using Artisan Studio, organizations producing telecommunications systems are performing their systems engineering more accurately, are designing their hardware more reliably, are implementing their software more correctly and are getting their products to market sooner.The key characteristics of complex Telecommunications systems include large form factors, low volumes, voice and data processing, high availability, ruggedized systems, traffic scheduling, billing, access control, software-defined radio, COTS and proprietary hardware, circuit switching, data routing, and photonics. Systems in this domain include residential and metropolitan telephone switches, Customer Premise Equipment (CPE), Internet data routers, billing systems, military communications radios and networks, and audio and video signal processors.
Artisan Studio’s reliable client-server architecture, its robust and scalable data storage, its integrated change management of repositories, models, and model elements enable a collaboration culture within which the systems, software, and hardware engineers of telecommunications team can excel. Studio’s capabilities for SysML modeling enable Telecommunications organizations to manage the entire requirements and needs, including elicit, capture, and refine system requirements related to governmental, regulatory, and user expectations, feature capabilities, economic analysis, and safety and reliability constraints. Requirements can be refined with Use Case and interaction diagrams. Systems Engineers can represent the systems in context with the Block Definition and Internal Block structural capabilities of SysML.
Artisan Studio’s capabilities for UML modeling enable Telecommunications organizations to express the component and class structure of the potential communication systems. Engineers can express behaviors of these software-centric systems with Use Case, Sequence, and Activity diagrams and can use State Machine diagrams to express the modal and dynamic aspects of system behavior. Both the higher-level operational view expressed in SysML and the lower-level implementation view expressed in UML can be related to each other with SysML allocation modeling and to requirements with SysML traceability modeling.
Software programmers implementing behaviors for communications systems can exploit Artisan Studio’s ACS/TDK in a Model-Driven Architecture methodology to generate software artifacts from their models. The ACS/TDK capability is customizable so an organization’s domain specialist can create customized code generators to support the exact platform, operating system, and compiler variants that are routine in telecommunications.
