Capella to Simulink Migration
Show older comments
I am using the Capella tool for logical architecture design, mode state machines, interface scenarios, etc. All this information is stored in the .capella (XML) format. I would like to use this information for migration into Simulink. I understand that this might be possible using System Composer.
Could you please explain how this is performed?
Can we directly import the Capella XML file into System Composer, or does the migration need to be done manually?

I guess as of today the best way is to use matlab/simulink agentic toolkit. Theretically should be able to generate almost automatically from your xml model the whole equivalent simulink architecture with just some natural language prompts. Let me know in case

We have worked with customers in the past on sharing data between Capella and System Composer. Can you please send me a private message with your email address so we can help you out?
There is a published Technical Article on this topic here:
Creating a Bridge Between Capella and System Composer or Simulink
By Fabian Tutschka, MathWorks
A one-directional Capella import mechanism is possible by reading and postprocessing the existing Capella XML file. It requires detailed knowledge of Capella, as well as Simulink, System Composer, and MATLAB APIs. The generated artifacts depend on the modeling guidelines. MathWorks Consulting has worked with clients in the past to bridge Capella with Simulink and System Composer. While the exact code depends on the specific requirements of a project, MathWorks Consulting can help customize such a bridge, integrate specific work environments, as well as establish an update mechanism.

Josh

I may also be interested in knowing your way. Can you share?
