Vector PREEvision 7.5 Model-Based Development Software

PREEvision 7.5, by Vector CANtech, Inc., is an engineering tool for the design and optimization of electrical/electronic systems. 

• Combines and unifies many data models and graphical interfaces that previously required using multiple tools
• Delivers top-to-bottom E/E design environment
• Enables fine-grained traceability from requirements to design elements and between design elements on different levels of functional and physical design layers
• Provides customizable analysis engine for checking design consistency across design layers and design variants
• Compares design alternatives based on key metrics like system cost, weight, software footprint and network bus traffic
• For use early in development process with simple high-level conceptualization, automated synthesis of more detailed system designs and fast-turn analysis of design alternatives
• Identifes optimal system design approaches as early as possible, analyzes change impact at systems level and delivers re-usable design models to downstream development activities 
• Provides graphical design environments for many key process areas, including functional architecture design, component network design, wire harness design and more
• Offers analytical and automation capabilities for key process areas such as product design variation, fine grain traceability, splice location, and more
• Enables development of network communication for commercial vehicles according to SAE J1939
• Features simplified model-based electrical/electronic systems when designing CAN FD networks according to SAE J1939
• Supports J1939-based ISO Standard 11783 (ISOBUS) for communication between, for example, a tractor and its add-on
  equipment
• Project partners can easily exchange data using the associated import and export functions for DBC and AUTOSAR
• Import and export portfolio has been expanded to include AUTOSAR 4.2.1
• Communication descriptions for CAN FD can be exported in AUTOSAR format
• Supports the AUTOSAR Admin Data and SDG concepts
• "Reload" function allows users to describe and use the data relevant to them faster and more efficiently for processing large data quantities
• Newly implemented change history supports collaboration in distributed teams
• Change marking enables users to reliably recognize all changes in the model for quick and reliable evaluation of work on the data and tracking of a project's progress
