Abstract
RDD-100 is a systems engineering tool which has its roots in the manual techniques employed on the USA´s ballistic missile defence projects in the period 1975-1985. This methodology was very much focused on predicting and then guaranteeing a system´s overall response time in reacting to in-coming threats. RDD-100 adopts the view that systems development is best achieved by incrementally developing a system model that will persist over the lifecycle and be shared and managed by the people involved. RDD-100 provides a unique capability of modelling system behaviour and investigating the dynamic aspects of this behaviour. It enables system architectures to be represented and provides valuable information which can be used as the basis for trade-off analysis. RDD-100 also supports system requirements extraction, traceability from requirements to system specification and design, and the ability to generate major reports directly from the RDD-100 database. Above all, RDD-100 allows a single model to be built that can persist over the lifecycle and be shared and managed by the people involved
