Ansys SCADE Architect vs. PathWave System Design vs. Valispace vs. jscoverage Comparison Chart

Ansys SCADE Architect has been specifically developed for system engineers. It provides full support of industrial systems engineering processes, such as ARP 4754A, ISO 26262 and EN 50126. SCADE Architect features functional and architectural system modeling and verification in a SysML-based environment. Ansys SCADE Architect has been specifically developed for system engineers; the underlying SysML™ technology is hidden, making modeling more user-friendly and intuitive. Ansys tools support software development aligned to the FACE Technical Standard at both the model and generated code levels, providing users with an easy workflow that passes the FACE Conformance Test Suite (CTS), a necessary test process included in the FACE Technical Standard.

It enables Team Collaboration on all important aspects of the Engineering Lifecycle, such as: - Requirements Management - Data-Driven Functional Design - Product Architecture - Detailed Systems Design & Simulation - Automated Verification - Live Documentation It also allows for cross-lifecycle process improvements, such as: - Agile Engineering Planning - Technical Change Management In comparison to siloed Requirement Management Systems or Model Based Systems Engineering expert-tools, its data-driven architecture enables agile hardware development across departments with a digital thread along the engineering lifecycle. Valispace’s proprietary calculation engine propagates changes instantly to users, requirements, architecture, verifications and documentation. Therefore, its introduction into the engineering process reduces costs by significantly shortening development times, as well as by preventing design mistakes which usually lead to expensive rework.
