Rational Rhapsody - Editions

Editions

Engineers and developers might select one of the following Rational Rhapsody editions for their specific needs:

Rational Rhapsody Developer provides an environment that enables early validation of behavior of embedded systems and software to uncover defects earlier in the product lifecycle by using rapid prototyping, visual debugging and model execution to help deliver products that meet requirements faster. This version has these additional features:

  • Full behavioral code generation for C, C++, Java, and Ada applications targeting real-time operating systems may improve developer productivity
  • Requirements traceability to design, code and test in integrated environment
  • Industry standard based UML and SysML modeling environment helps team communication while maintaining consistency across different views
  • Design object-oriented or functional C based applications
  • Integration with Eclipse development environment for integrated code, model, and debugging operations

Rational Rhapsody Designer for Systems Engineers provides system engineers with a collaborative development environment with simulation for early requirements, architecture, and behavioral validation to improve the communication of complex requirements and trade-off analysis of complex systems. This version has these additional features:

  • Integrated requirements and modeling environment using industry standard SysML or UML diagrams
  • Full lifecycle traceability and analysis from requirements to design
  • Automates tedious tasks with the systems engineering toolkit
  • Static model checking analysis helps design consistency
  • Includes configuration management interface support with advanced graphical difference and merging capabilities for parallel development
  • Automate documentation across product lifecycle with Rational Publishing Engine

Rational Rhapsody Architect for Software provides a UML and SysML based software development environment for real-time and embedded software development. Embedded software developers can leverage an integrated software development environment for C, C++ or Java code that helps improve application consistency through UML based modeling to visualize and document the design of embedded and real time applications. This version has these additional features:

  • Visualize architecture and design with industry standard UML
  • Generate C, C++, or Java code frames
  • Reverse engineer C, C++ or Java code for visualization and documentation
  • Integration with Eclipse development environment for integrated code, model, and debugging operations
  • Maintain consistency of architecture, design, code and documentation automatically
  • Develop automotive applications using AUTOSAR

Rational Rhapsody Architect for Systems Engineers helps systems engineers collaborate to manage complexity to develop products and specify cohesive architectures and designs. Features include:

  • Integrated requirements and modeling environment using industry standard SysML or UML diagrams
  • Full lifecycle traceability and analysis from requirements to design, with customizable automatic documentation capabilities
  • Static model checking analysis helps design consistency
  • Automate tedious manual tasks with systems engineering toolkit
  • XMI and Rational Rose import for legacy system and re-use
  • Configuration management interface support with advanced graphical difference and merging capabilities for parallel development
  • Collaborative development with integration with the Jazz-based Rational Team Concert solution through Eclipse
  • Develop systems of systems with additional DoDAF, MODAF or UPDM support

Rational Rhapsody Design Manager enables you to share, collaborate and manage your designs across the systems engineering and embedded software development lifecycle using IBM Rational Jazz technology

Famous quotes containing the word editions:

    “The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St. Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
    —Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
