About Us

The ModelBus® Team at the System Quality Center at Fraunhofer FOKUS provides tools and services for improving system engineering processes. Being part of Fraunhofer - Europe’s largest application-oriented research organization - our work focusses on efficiency in system development.

We are a group of highly motivated engineers having a broad technological background and committed to innovation, high quality work and customer needs. With the ModelBus technology we offer an advanced tool integration platform, serving as basis for innovative, efficient and highly integrated development solutions.

Besides ModelBus® we offer a set of additional tools and extensions which addresses specific tasks in system engineering, including traceability, metric computation as well as requirements engineering and co-simulation.

Our mission is to improve system engineering. We analyse your current development environment, the interactions within the teams and the data exchanged between tools. And we show you different ways to improve efficiency in your processes, either in small steps or as substantial re-architecting.

Testimonials

Jason Xabier Mansell (technalia, Spain) about using ModelBus for PLUM:

“PLUM stands for Product Line Unified Modeller and ModelBus has been the technology which unifies the different tools which conform the PLUM toolsuite. The key advantage we obtained from using ModelBus is that the tools can be deployed either integrated into a single IDE or can be separated into a distributed environment. ModelBus allowed to do this seamlessly and took care of the transport protocols and communication issues.”
