New features and changes introduced in this version are:
Simulink Report Generator Qualification Support for System Design Description Report
Artifacts Explorer for Accessing and Managing Qualification Materials
The DO Qualification Kit product now supports using the Simulink Report Generator System Design Description report in projects involving the DO-178B and related standards.
The Simulink Report Generator product includes the capability to generate a System Design Description (SDD) report for your Simulink model. The report provides detailed information about the system design represented by a model. You can use the System Design Description to
Review a system design without having the model open
Generate detailed descriptions of the design
Assess compliance with design requirements
Archive the system design in a format independent of the modeling environment
For more information, see DO Qualification Kit: Simulink Report Generator Tool Operational Requirements in the DO Qualification Kit documentation.
The qualification materials that are part of the DO Qualification Kit product are in many different locations. Now you can use the Certification Artifacts Explorer to access and manage the qualification materials. Using the Certification Artifacts Explorer, you can:
Browse the qualification materials that are part of the DO Qualification Kit product.
Access qualification artifacts for editing.
For details, see Accessing and Managing Qualification Artifacts in the DO Qualification Kit documentation. For limitations that apply, see Limitations of the Certification Artifacts Explorer in the DO Qualification Kit documentation.
The DO-178B software life cycle consists of objectives that must be met for each of the life cycle stages. In Appendix A of DO-178B, these objectives are summarized in tables. The DO Qualification Kit product now summarizes those tables and provides recommendations on meeting the objectives using a Model-Based Design process.
For details, see DO Qualification Kit Model-Based Design Workflow for DO-178B in the DO Qualification Kit documentation.
The DO Qualification Kit product includes documents, templates, test cases, and test procedures. You can use these artifacts when you use the following MathWorks products and capabilities in projects involving the DO-178B and related standards:
Simulink Verification and Validation Version 3.0 (R2010b): DO-178B checks and model coverage
Simulink Report Generator Version 3.9 (R2010b): System Design Description report
SystemTest Version 2.6 (R2010b): Limit Check element
Polyspace Client for C/C++, Polyspace Server for C/C++ Version 8.0 (R2010b)
For details, see DO Qualification Kit Components in the DO Qualification Kit documentation.
You can use the DO Qualification Kit product to assist in qualifying verification tools for projects that follow DO-254. For details, see Can You Apply the DO Qualification Kit Product to DO-254? in the DO Qualification Kit documentation.
