Project Profile

ITEA2 project, 29 partners, July 2008 - June 2011

MODELISAR is an ITEA2 European project to improve significantly the design of systems and of embedded software in vehicles. Major achievements will be:

• Support of AUTOSAR (the coming standard for embedded system software in vehicles) in simulation environments of the MODELISAR partners.
• A new, open, interface standard FMI (Functional Mock-up Interface) will be developed in order that models from different simulation environments, including the Modelica and non-Modelica tools of the MODELISAR partners, can be conveniently used in other environments. Usage of a model in another environment can either be performed by model coupling, i.e., no integrators are embedded in the model, or by co-simulation in various levels. FMI covers also libraries of embedded software and will be the basis for advanced code generation for AUTOSAR.
• The proof-of-concept of the FMI standard and of its support in several tools (including Modelica and non-Modelica tools, AUTOSAR editors, simulation editors/schedulers etc.) will be performed by industrial automotive scenarios such as power-lift gate, cabriolet opening system, mechatronic shifting, chassis control, climate comfort.
• Testing methodologies will be significantly improved and adapted to FMI and to Modelica.
• Data, models, and software will be integrated into Dassault Systèmes V6 Product Life Management to integrate tools and manage work flow, versions and variants over the product life.
