Telelogic upgrade comes with IBM logo on it

May 28, 2008 —  Just because one’s company is sold doesn’t mean that the flow of new and improved products can falter; if anything, that’s when it’s most important to show customers that it’s business as usual.

IBM Rational has introduced new versions of software development tools from Telelogic, which it acquired on April 3, for wider collaboration among participants in the development of complex embedded systems. Other new features are also included.

Telelogic was developing many of these newly released tools before IBM made its US$845 million bid for the company. Among the changes to the Telelogic portfolio, announced May 20, are the following, according to IBM:

Telelogic Change 5.0: New capabilities are intended to support global ALM efforts, including integration with the company’s Focal Point and System Architect tools, for process analysis and product management.

Telelogic DOORS: DOORS 9.0 adds Telelogic Directory Service for common user administration across multiple DOORS servers; DOORS Web Access, a rich Internet application for collaborating through a Web browser; DOORS/TraceLine, which allows developers to visualize, browse and manage DOORS traceability structures; and DOORS integration with Microsoft Team Foundation Server for those developing in the Visual Studio IDE. TraceLine is available now; the others will be by the end of the second quarter.

Telelogic Dashboard 3.5: Now provides managers with project status and trend information to help meet project goals across multiple projects.

Telelogic Rhapsody: An update due later this summer adds a Telelogic Rhapsody-Eclipse Plug-in, to integrate the Rhapsody model-driven development tool into the Eclipse open-source IDE.

The demand for improved collaboration tools is driven by global companies that may have product development in the U.S., sales and marketing in Europe and software development and testing in China, India or Russia, said John Carrillo, senior director of Telelogic solutions.

“Being able to have a common collaborative environment just to synchronize change management is a huge issue,” Carrillo said. “There are a lot more companies that are trying to create common best practices and processes and consolidate as many tools as possible] to facilitate those processes.”

The updates are free to current Telelogic customers.
