Benefits of model-driven design

• Design an embedded application by drawing objects, events, actions etc, using the powerful notation of hierarchical UML state charts and state machines.
  
  
• Discuss the design and exchange ideas with others thanks to the model-driven design approach and the graphical design representation.
  
  
• Simulate and visualise your application to find mistakes early in the design cycle.
  
  
• Verify the logical consistency of your designs run-time model with the extremely powerful formal verificator.
  
  
• Perform extensive tests continuously and iteratively throughout your development: validation of the state machine behavior, regression testing and automatic test coverage reporting.
  
  
• Use the power of executable UML and RealLink to execute and visualise the behavior of your state machines on the target system.
  
  
• Automatically generate error-free micro-tight C/C++ code that is 100% consistent with your design.
  
  
• Develop incrementally, reusing code and prototyping.
  
  
• Add new functionality to an existing application as market requirements change.
  
• Maintain an existing application thanks to the accurate, structured documentation that is always in-sync with the final design.
