PRODUCT OF THE WEEK: Precise Systems UDDL Modeler for defense systems development

This week’s product, the Precise Systems UDDL Modeler, is built on The Open Group Open Universal Domain Description Language (Open UDDL). As defense and aerospace systems are becoming more and more interconnected, programs must manage extensive collections of model elements while maintaining data consistency across platforms, suppliers, and system components. UDDL Modeler brings these activities into one intuitive and trusted environment, enabling users to develop interoperable data models, conduct UDDL conformance testing, and verify third-party system data with greater speed and confidence.

Modern defense programs require more than standardized data models. As more military programs adapt a modular open systems approach (MOSA) they need built-in standards compliance, efficient workflows, and the ability to generate the engineering artifacts that support integration across complex systems.

The UDDL Modeler brings these capabilities together in a single, standards-based environment, helping engineering teams simplify development, reduce manual effort, and improve collaboration throughout the digital engineering lifecycle. From intuitive model creation to automated conformance testing and artifact generation, UDDL Modeler enables faster development, greater consistency, and more confident delivery of interoperable systems.

FACE Technical Standard Conformance

More than model creation is necessary for conformance with MOSA initiatives like the Future Airborne Capability Environment, or FACE, Technical Standard. It demands built-in validation and seamless standards compliance.

The Precise Systems UDDL Modeler provides an integrated environment for developing FACE Edition 2.1.x and 3.x UoP Supplied Models (USMs) and Domain-Specific Data Models (DSDMs), with built-in conformance testing and model conversion capabilities. The result is a more efficient path to compliance, simplified migration between FACE editions, and greater confidence in system interoperability.

Generating Digital Artifacts

UDDL Modeler transforms digital models into the engineering artifacts and documentation needed throughout the development lifecycle. From Interface Control Documents (ICDs) to FACE artifacts and model-to-document exports, it automates the creation of critical deliverables while improving consistency, reducing manual effort, and streamlining collaboration across engineering teams.

Key capabilities include:

Automatic generation of interface control documents (ICDs)
Model-to-document transformation with exports to Microsoft Office, OpenOffice, iWork, and PDF
Import and export of FACE Edition 2.1.x and 3.x models
Export of FACE 3.x IDL and TSS segment artifacts
Generation of digital assurance artifacts supporting integration with safety-critical AFCE-178 FACE conformant platforms
