FAQ

Yes, XATIS integrates a standard Model Based System Engineering design process.

Yes, XATIS allows for the modeling of functions and components characteristics, as well as business constraints.

XATIS allows characterization of interfaces (input and output ports) and data flows. XATIS also enables identification of data producers and consumers.

Interface Control Documents can be automatically generated from the aforementioned information.

Let's consider that we have a system model. It is possible to create models for each subsystem and synchronize them with the system model.

XATIS allows for:

• Creating and reusing a library of components
• Initiating architecture models from existing projects

XATIS allows to work locally and to publish your model on a server.

Back in 2013, Safran Engineering Services launched ATIS development which stands for 'ATelier d’Ingénierie Système' based on CESAM methodology and Eclipse Framework. 

2016 introduced new decisive functionnalities: ATIS then became XATIS which stands for eXtended ATIS!

Of course we did!

XATIS offers several collaborative solutions. 

First of all, due to its ergonomics, it allows the system architect to model the system to be designed in a session, on a shared screen, with the participation of various fields and other project stakeholders. 

Additionally, XATIS has a feature for fragmenting and synchronizing system/sub-system architecture models. 

XATIS also offers a model publication feature. It is then possible:

• To query the published model to extract information
• To navigate through the published model via a web interface
• To create traceability links between an Application Lifecycle Management and the published model using the Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration connector available on most ALMs in the market (JAZZ-DOORS NG, POLARION, ...). 

XATIS can also interface with an ALM via ReqIF file exchange. 

The XATIS model can also be converted into other formats compatible with market tools via an Acceleo script. 

To conclude, XATIS is a system architecture modeling software that can integrate into an existing design platform (software platform or set of softwares).

XATIS natively integrates eGIT for configuration management as well as Diffmerge for model comparison.

XATIS allows for the modeling of simulation architectures as input data for simulation software. For this purpose, XATIS enables detailed modeling of model data and business constraints. 

XATIS integrates a Matlab file generator (function and ODE - Ordinary Differential Equation). 

Transformation of simulation information into executable files or into formats compatible with other simulation tools can also be done with Acceleo scripts or the Java API.

XATIS allows for the generation of documentation in Word via customizable templates.

The model can be exported in XML and HTML. Certain parts of the model can be exported in Word, Excel, and Matlab.

Diagrams can be exported in JPEG, PNG, SVG, and HTML.
