SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING A MODEL-BASED DESIGN LIFECYCLE
First Claim
1. A system for managing a model-based design lifecycle having a plurality of stages, the system comprising:
- an input interface for receiving input from the user of the system;
a display device; and
a processor coupled to the input interface and the display device, and configured to;
display a user interface on the display device, the user interface comprising a plurality of controls that each corresponds to a different process associated with a stage of the model-based design lifecycle, wherein certain ones of the controls are configured to require the user to perform the corresponding processes in a required order; and
retrieve a software module for each selected control to implement the corresponding process.

Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for managing a model-based design lifecycle having a plurality of stages. The system comprises an input interface for receiving input from the user of the system, a display device, and a processor coupled to the input interface and the display device. The processor is configured to display a user interface on the display device, wherein the user interface comprises a plurality of controls that each corresponds to a different process associated with a stage of the model-based design lifecycle. Certain ones of the controls are configured to require the user to perform the corresponding processes in a required order and certain other ones of the controls are arranged to encourage the user to perform the corresponding operation in a preferred order. The processor is also configured to retrieve a software module for each selected control to implement the corresponding process.

17. A computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that when executed by a processor cause the processor to perform a method for managing a model-based design lifecycle having a requirements stage, a development stage, and a testing stage, the method comprising:
-
displaying a user interface on a display device, the user interface comprising a plurality of controls that each corresponds to a different process associated with the requirements stage, the development stage, or the testing stage, wherein certain ones of the controls are configured to require a user to perform the corresponding processes in a required order and certain other ones of the controls are configured to encourage the user to perform the corresponding processes in a preferred order; and retrieving a software module for each selected control to implement the corresponding process. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
