EA-Matic

EA-Matic is an add-in that enables rapid EA add-in development. It uses the built-in scripting features of EA to\A0relieve you of developing, building and deploying full-blown EA add-ins. Aimed at corporate environments, it greatly reduces the time to introduce new functionality. With EA-Matic you can develop your EA add-in using nothing but EA, and deploy changes instantly to all model users.

The possibilities are endless. You can validate your own modelling rules, keep your model consistent by preventing the deletion of elements that are still used, add your own context menus, or make self-maintaining diagrams. The only limits are those of your imagination.

The table below shows how add-in development with EA-Matic differs from classic add-in development.

	EA-Matic	Classic add-in development
Required tools	Only EA	Visual Studio, Sharpdevelop, or equivalent IDE
Installation of a new version	Instantly available for all users without the need to install anything again on the workstations.	Msi-deployment on all workstations
Languages	VBScript, JScript, JavaScript	VB, C#
Security access on development machine	Normal user rights are enough.	Local Administrator rights required.

MODSARUS®

MODSARUS® brings to EA a model-driven approach to specify unambiguous, interoperable and vendor-independent smart grid and smart energy systems. With MODSARUS®, utilities can specify their business processes and associated data exchange. MODSARUS automates the transformation from paper documents to UML models to data exchange interfaces (XSD).

MODSARUS® is developed by a utility (EDF) for utilities, and is based on key IEC standards.

Functionality

• MODSARUS® offers two functional modules:
  • MODSARUS® “Use Case” supports the specification of business processes (compliant with IEC62559 Use Case Methodology).
  • MODSARUS® “Data Flow” supports the specification of exchange interfaces based on corporate or IEC data models (CIM). It is complementary with key existing EA features for generic or domain-specific XSD generation using EA SchemaComposer.

Benefits

• MODSARUS®:
  • reduces overall design time
  • hides the complexity of modeling rules
  • improves the quality, reusability and sharing of large models
  • enhances the documentation consistency of along the entire life cycle of complex never-ending infrastructures

Portfolio Manager

Portfolio Manager™ (part of eaTeamWorks™) gives confidence and control to modelers who are running multiple projects in the same Enterprise Architect repository.

Portfolio Manager provides real-time visibility to programme and project teams and other stakeholders, preventing modelling clashes between projects. With Portfolio Manager you can avoid:

• Accidentally working with old versions of elements
• Building on elements that are about to be deleted or retired
• Several modelers overwriting or making contradictory changes to copies of the same elements
• Creating duplicate elements

Instead:

• Instant project impact assessments reveal shared elements being worked on by other projects and push notifications to impacted projects.
• Project and portfolio dependency views summarize element level impacts, giving project managers the information they need to coordinate changes, manage project scope and mitigate risks.
• Heatmaps show where model changes are proposed/planned. Heatmaps can be generated for portfolios or for a set of element types or stereotypes.
• Element roadmaps show the sequence of proposed and planned changes for individual elements and which projects are delivering them.
• Travel through time, with diagrams that show the status of the model at different points in the future due to all changes being made by all projects. Visualize and share architecture plateaus with stakeholders.

Portfolio Manager is compatible with all Agile, Waterfall and Hybrid development methodologies.
