With native integration of the
Scade language and its formal
notation, SCADE Suite is the
only integrated design
environment for critical
applications spanning
requirements management,
model-based design, simulation,
verification, qualifiable/certified
code generation, and
interoperability with other development tools
and platforms.
SCADE Suite is tightly integrated with Esterel
Technologies’ SCADE System™, enabling
integration of system and software development
activities, and SCADE Display®, enabling the
joint model-based design of control laws and
logic with the design of graphics display
applications.

Tailored for Critical Applications
SCADE Suite drastically reduces project certification
costs by simplifying critical control application
design, automating verification and certifiable/
qualifiable code generation, as well design
documentation generation. SCADE Suite KCG™
Code Generator is qualifiable as a development
tool under DO-178B level A requirements,
IEC 61508 safety objectives at SIL 3, and EN 50128
safety objectives at SIL 3/4.
SCADE Suite KCG Certification Kits provide all
material required by the respective standard
guidelines for the certification authorities:
• Tool Qualification Plan (TQP)
• Tool Operational Requirements (TOR)
• Tool Accomplishment Summary (TAS) or
Safety Cases (SC)
• Compliance Analysis to certification standard
• Software Installation Procedure (SIP)
• Software Configuration Index (SCI)
• and standard-specific documents
More information in the technical datasheets on
SCADE Suite KCG Certification Kits.
DO-178B Certification Plans provide a set of generic
plans supporting the certification of applications
developed with SCADE Suite at level A and B.

Software Prototyping and Design
Advanced Model-Based Design
• Graphical editing of flexible/nested dataflows
and hierarchical SCADE State Machines (SSM)
• Graphical decision diagrams
• Array iterators to facilitate operator multiinstantiation and perform complex data
processing
• Model completeness and determinism
guaranteed
• Strongly-typed language
• Static consistency checking
• Intuitive and familiar visual representation
• Easy reuse and readability of design
• Efficient editing features, such as multiple
connection drawing, navigation in model,
search, unlimited undo
• Comparison of semantic differences between
models, packages, operators, or state
machines with location and reporting features
