Communications Software Specification and Software Development

Telelogic® SDL Suite™ is a real-time, software development solution that provides specification and development capabilities for complex, event-driven communications systems and protocol software.  The Telelogic SDL Suite supports the ITU-T Specification and Description Language (SDL) standard, providing visual design and automatic software generation to increase quality and productivity.

The Telelogic SDL Suite benefits developers by:

  • Ensuring application quality through continuous model checking, co-simulation, and debugging
  • Protecting investments using existing C/C++ legacy code in new protocol designs
  • Understanding application behavior early by simulating design and functionality - without writing a single line of code, even in incomplete and target-independent models

Compliance Testing of Communication Systems Using TTCN-2

Telelogic® TTCN Suite™, the de facto standard environment for compliance testing of communicating systems, is used worldwide to test telecommunications and data communications equipment ranging from built-in silicon to huge switches and intelligent network services. The Telelogic TTCN Suite combines with the Telelogic SDL Suite to provide a tightly-integrated development and test environment.

The Telelogic TTCN Suite benefits testers by:

  • Improving product quality through seamless design and testing integration
  • Increasing productivity through a versatile, standards-based test definition language that supports manual and automatic test script generation and execution
  • Lowers costs via a modular process whose structure allows creation of reusable libraries across different system versions and hardware platforms

On-Demand Webcast: Developing Next Generation Protocol Stacks: Beyond 3G

New Generation protocols such as 802.16 (WiMAX), IPv6, and many more, benefit greatly from Model Driven Development (MDD); all the underlying protocols can not only be specified and designed, they can also be iteratively implemented and executed throughout the development process. Test cases can be designed and run against this model. This ability to simulate and test in both the development environment and on the target device itself results in unparalleled productivity. IBM will demonstrate how this is accomplished using the industry's de facto standards in protocol stack development and testing, SDL Suite and TTCN Suite. In this on-demand Webcast, we will describe some of the issues software developers face when developing next generation protocol software and how MDD can assist the development process.
