SCADE Suite Editor

SCADE Suite Editor is the primary interactivity environment within the SCADE Suite environment. Embodying a natural approach to specification capture, the developer is provided with clear and simple approach that, when coupled with the formal modelling notation, underpins the qualified/certified SCADE Suite software development process.

Integrated Deterministic Data Flow and Safe State Machine Notations

SCADE Suite simplifies the capture of complex specifications with an intuitive graphical notation. Unlimited hierarchy and nesting of data flow and Safe State Machine notations allow the developer to build the most natural model architecture, unburdened by arbitrary tool limitations.

Improved Developer Productivity

Through rigorously enforced model semantics, SCADE Suite automatically ensures the integrity of the captured specification allowing the developer to focus on building the correct application. Using the formally defined SCADE Language, a deterministic reader independent and explicit specification is guaranteed. Dangerous constructs and unpredictable manipulations are prevented from entering the specification, hence preventing the need for time consuming retrospective analysis and correction.

SCADE Suite Editor provides the developer with powerful and expressive module libraries that simplify intricate operations and manipulations. For example, a Scalar Product calculation is performed with two blocks and one interconnect, rather than the arduous alternative.

Function Block Libraries

SCADE Suite is provided as standard with all the basic library blocks needed to create specifications. Regardless of the application from Flight Computer to Railway Interlocking, development with SCADE Suite is ready to start without the need for additional libraries.
