SUMMARY:

The case study given is all about System Architecture Virtual Integration (SAVI) is an
industry initiative by a number of aerospace companies and government organizations
to improve the engineering practice for software-reliant aircraft systems under the
umbrella of the Aerospace Vehicle Systems Institute (AVSI). The case study is focus to
the improvement of a project, organization or a something that can relate to the system
architecture example the aerospace industry. On this system SAVI program is
committed to developing a virtual integration methodology that manages the
exponentially increasing complexity of modern aerospace systems. As a result of
reduced systems and software rework costs, SAVI pays for itself in the first commercial
aircraft developed with the VIP. Develop complex aerospace systems at lower cost and
on schedule through virtual integration. The objective is to lower development cost
of complex aerospace systems and to deliver the final product on schedule by using
model-driven virtual integration that begins during early requirements definition and
continuously monitors system evolution for inter-model consistency. And The SAVI
system defines and registers all inter-model dependencies, continuously performs
consistency checks and proves all models are consistent. As changes are made, the SAVI
annotated architectural model checks each change for consistency and proves it correct.
The second we discuss is about the key concept of System Architecture Virtual
integration is a use of an annotated architecture model as the single source for
architecture analysis we can see on the figure on the key Concept is the Current
development processes allow 70% of faults to be introduced early in the life cycle, while
80% of them are not caught until integration test or later with a repair cost of 16x or
higher. If we use the SAVI I think the percentage or the average of the fault will be easy
to know and we can expect cost saving that why it’s very important. And the SAVI
development process must support collaboration between System engineer, software
system engineers, and the engineers.
CONCLUSION:

In this case study i learned about why (SAVI) or system architecture visual integration
are important to achieve the goal of a Organization. And for this case study focused on
the experience of (SAVI), the concept of (SAVI) the AVSI`s the scenario of (SAVI). And
Virtual integration demonstrated early and repeated quantitative analysis at various
levels of fidelity, validation of architecture consistency across subcontracted subsystem
interfaces and independent protocol mappings, and discovery of intricate operational
system-level faults due to design problems in the runtime architecture. The resulting
early discovery of system-level faults reduces risk, lowers system life cycle costs, and
improves quality. The SAVI POc demonstrated how multi-tier modeling and analysis
across levels, coverage of system engineering and embedded software system analysis,
propagation of changes across multiple analysis dimensions, maintenance of multiple
model representations in a model repository, auto generation of analytical models via
model bus, interfacing of multiple tools to perform the same analysis, as well as
distributed team development via repository to support airframe manufacturer and
supplier interaction are possible through the SAVI concepts.
