AADL (Architecture Analysis & Design Language)

AADL (Architecture Analysis & Design Language) is a specialized modeling tool used by engineers to define, analyze, and simulate complex software and hardware systems, particularly in safety-critical domains like aerospace and automotive. It provides a structured way to specify system components, their interactions, and performance requirements, enabling early identification of potential issues. By modeling these systems clearly, AADL helps teams design reliable, efficient architectures and predict how they will behave in real-world conditions, ultimately improving safety and performance before actual development begins.
