RDD-100 System Designer [Ascent Logic Corporation]

Requirements Driven Development (RDD) is a software tool suite thatencompasses all aspects of system design. It is unique because systembehavior can be observed at all stages of the design process. RDDincludes requirements analysis, functional design and specification,allocation to subsystems and components, and design of interfaces. RDD'sgraphic language describes real, dynamic system behavior, and includesconstructs for integrated description of functions, conditions,interfaces, and flow of data or materials with control. RDD includes aunique simulator which directly executes the design objects so there areno questions about fidelity or validity.RDD-100 System Designer facilitates the construction, maintenance,display, and documentation of design objects that specify behavior.Objects include requirements, functions, components, and the sources anddecisions that lead to the system architecture. Objects are created andedited by graphics or text, with multiple generated views available togain different perspectives. At the core of RDD is an extensible objectbase of data for system description, archiving, and management, whichfollows the element-relationship-attribute schema. Templates andconsistency checks verify system design sufficiency.
