Challenges of Digital Toolchain Engineering

In the new era of digitalization, there is an ever-growing need for design and production processes capable of increasing systems quality, reducing risks and the chance of errors while at the same time reducing overall production costs. Nowadays, more and more systems design scenarios comprise an overwhelming number of domains, also displaying a remarkable diversity in their nature.

However, the tool landscape underlying this conceptual space is still dominated by closed ecosystems, resulting in engineering data remaining in separated silos. Consequently, engineering processes remain fragmented, introducing collaboration overhead, especially in handover scenarios, i.e., whenever the engineering process transitions between phases such as requirements-to-architecture or architecture-to-detailed design.

IncQUery Autosar-UML Bridge

Say goodbye to manual synching

Powered by IncQuery Integrator, the IncQuery AUTOSAR-UML Bridge is the ultimate solution for Assisted Documentation Creation and Automated Handover. It can streamline your automotive engineering workflow by generating high-quality UML models from AUTOSAR projects, with built-in ISO26262 and ASPICE compliance.

Challenges of using UML and SysML in Automotive Projects

Automotive software architects and systems engineers spend a lot of time with creating ISO26262-compliant documentation, by creating UML models from AUTOSAR architecture designs, or establishing traceability between requirements captured in SysML and design artefacts that exist in both modeling languages. However, as a project progresses and the work of engineers diverge, keeping AUTOSAR and UML/SysML in synch can be a tedious, slow, and error-prone task – especially when you are already grappling with tight timelines and limited resources

Software Architecture (AUTOSAR), System Architecture (UML/SysML), Low-level design (UML Behavior)

Furthermore, as AUTOSAR focuses on architecture and interfaces, the transition from architecture to detailed design may also impose copy-pasting or re-entering data into a UML tool. This is a major source of frustration for software engineers, who just want to focus on their work instead of wasting time.

The culprit in both cases is the lack of automation, resulting in missed deadlines and cost overruns.

Our solution

Overview

Book a discussion and demo

The AUTOSAR-UML Bridge allows you to generate UML models from AUTOSAR projects, both for documentation purposes, as well as handover automation between architecture and detailed design. The IncQuery AUTOSAR-UML Bridge creates UML elements for the complete AUTOSAR hierarchy, so that software component and sequence diagrams can be created easily. Its seamless integration with Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect helps to streamline the overall design process.

Furthermore, it can also work with LieberLieber’s LemonTree, to enable agile iterations where collaborating architects and engineers can easily merge changes from AUTOSAR into the corresponding UML model, without having to redo or delete anything. Finally, your team can focus on really important tasks, instead of wasting time with manual work. Say goodbye to manual processes and embrace this cutting-edge solution today.

Take a deep dive into the conceptual and technical details of the AUTOSAR-UML Bridge by watching our webinar - in partnership with LieberLieber. Learn how to simplify system design, accelerate your development timeline, and reduce errors with real use cases. Whether you're a software developer, architect, or systems engineer, this video offers essential insights to enhance your productivity and system design.

Key Features

Simplifies the creation of UML diagrams for AUTOSAR models to just a few clicks.

Therefore, a month-long manual process becomes an automated workflow that delivers results in a few minutes.

This automated process remains fast, even for large AUTOSAR projects.

The workflow is user-friendly and efficient, freeing up your engineering team to focus on important work.

All versions of AUTOSAR are supported.

Fast and scalable push-button solution

The IncQuery AUTOSAR-UML Bridge provides a push-button solution for creating and maintaining UML models based on an AUTOSAR project. Supporting all versions of AUTOSAR via the ARTOP framework, the AUTOSAR-UML Bridge allows you to automatically import any AUTOSAR project into Enterprise Architect and create a complete and faithful representation of all AUTOSAR elements, properly stereotyped with an automatically generated profile that corresponds to the particular version of AUTOSAR used. Even large AUTOSAR projects can be imported safely, without losing fidelity.

Complete and faithful representation of AUTOSAR in UML

The imported elements can then be used to create various UML diagrams, such as software compositions, sequences and others. Additionally, you can also link them to SysML projects, e.g., to establish requirement realization relationships for the purpose of ISO26262/ASPICE-compliant traceability capture.

Tight integration with LemonTree

The IncQuery AUTOSAR-UML Bridge is tightly integrated with LieberLieber’s LemonTree, a state-of-the-art diff-and-merge tool for Enterprise Architect. This integration allows Automotive Systems or Software Engineers to use LemonTree’s capabilities to easily follow up on AUTOSAR changes, by re-importing and safely merging into the Enterprise Architect UML project. This way, UML stakeholders can stay in synch in every project iterations, without having to waste time on manual reviews and data reentry.
