What's New

This release brings several enhancements to safe embedded software development for SCADE and Scade One product family.

In the SCADE product family, ARINC 661 standard compatibility is updated with the latest Supplement 9. Developers get access to a Python API for programmatic connections between graphical panels and logic models. Automotive software developers receive a boost in modeling and code creation of fail-operational automotive systems, with the unique achievement of ISO 26262 ASIL D qualification for the AUTOSAR code generator. SCADE Suite also benefits from UX improvements, better error handling, and a new Extension Manager.

Since the first product release in 2024 R1, this Scade One release has primarily focused on improving user experience (UX) for modeling, debugging, and code generation.

SCADE - Upgraded SCADE Display & Solutions for ARINC 661

  • ARINC 661 compatibility updated: now up to Supplement 9
  • Python API to programmatically connect graphical panels with logic models
  • UX improvements: halo for imported fonts, finer grid size

SCADE - AUTOSAR Code Generator ISO 26262 qualification update

  • Strengthened support of AUTOSAR software application development flow  modeling and code generation levels
  • Unique ISO 26262 ASIL D tool qualification of the AUTOSAR code generator

SCADE - Improved Control Software Capabilities

Capabilities

Ansys embedded software solutions provide an array of powerful capabilities to help you develop safe and reliable software designs, faster. 

  • Embedded Control Software Development
  • Man-Machine Interface Software
  • Certified Code Generation Across Industries
  • Model-Based Systems Engineering

 

From commercial aircraft to autonomous vehicles, the quality of the embedded software development process determines operational efficiency and safety. Certified code generators like the one in Ansys SCADE ensure that your embedded software will work as planned, the first time and every time.

Despite all their autonomy, today’s smart products still must interact with a human being occasionally through an intuitive, easy-to-use man-machine interface. You can optimize the usability and reliability of your interface using software development and certified code generation tools from Ansys.

Ansys code generators and verification tools have been qualified/certified at the highest level of safety across six market segments by more than 10 safety authorities worldwide, including: DO-178C up to Level A for aerospace and defense applications,  ISO 26262 up to ASIL D for automotive applications, IEC 61508 up to SIL 3 for transportation and industrial applications, EN 50128 up to SIL 3/4 for rail transportation applications, and IEC 60880 demonstrated compliance for nuclear applications by many nuclear safety authorities. 

Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is key to using systems models to define requirements, design, analysis, and verification and validation activities throughout the development cycle. It keeps track of these interdependencies with an evolving model instead of written design specifications, so you can be sure that all subsystems mesh together in a finely tuned whole, even as you continue to change the design.

Xmobots Group Unmanned Systems

Xmbots develops UAVs for civilian within a number of markets, including agriculture, environmental, security and energy. The Brazilian-based company must comply with aviation certification standards, like DO-178 when developing UAVs for the Brazilian market. This is why they chose to use SCADE as part of their development process. Their development cycle went from 2 years for an entirely hand-codded application to 6 months with SCADE.
