Importing MathWorks Simulink models to the Rational Rhapsody Design Management Server

IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® Design Manager integrates with MathWorks Simulink so that designers and project stakeholders can publish and collaborate on Simulink models. Your team can search, view, review, mark up, and analyze Simulink models and Rational Rhapsody designs in a central location that can be accessed easily through a web client. Links can be created with Simulink elements that can provide traceability into the overall product lifecycle to help manage and understand the impact of design changes.

This topic refers to the method to use the Rational Rhapsody Design Manager Import Engine to import MathWorks Simulink models, which includes the ability to schedule importing. To use the Simulink Manual Importer to manually import MathWorks Simulink models to the Rational Rhapsody Design Management Server, see the related topic on manually importing MathWorks Simulink models.

With this integration, you can publish Simulink models to a Jazz-based repository with access using Rational Rhapsody Design Manager.

For the latest installation and configuration information on importing MathWorks Simulink models, see the Design Management Documentation wiki.

Prerequisites

The following products must be installed for the integration:

Procedure

After the products are installed, on the computer where you have Simulink and Rational Rhapsody Design Manager Import Engine installed, do the following set-up tasks:
  1. Create an import definition and use the Simulink domain for that definition. You can schedule how often the import engine checks for model updates. See the related topic on creating an import definition.
  2. Complete a one-time connection between Simulink and Rational Rhapsody Design Manager Import Engine through the Rational Rhapsody Import Engine window. See the related topic on configuring the import engine.
