An AUTOSAR architecture model provides resources and a canvas for developing AUTOSAR composition and component models. From the architecture model, you can:
Add and connect AUTOSAR compositions and components, or import a composition from ARXML files.
View component or composition dependencies.
Link components to requirements (requires Simulink® Requirements™).
Define component behavior by creating, linking, or importing Simulink models.
Configure scheduling and simulation.
Export composition and component ARXML descriptions and generate component code (requires Embedded Coder®).
Architecture models provide an end-to-end AUTOSAR software design workflow. In Simulink, you can author a high-level application design, implement behavior for application components, add Basic Software (BSW) service calls and service implementations, and simulate the application.
