Aeroflex signs for systems development
Aeroflex Test Solutions, Powell Division has selected Artisan Studio as its tool of choice for both systems and software development on all future projects
Aeroflex Test Solutions, Powell Division produces high speed test and measurement equipment for RF and microwave applications for applications such as satellite payload testing, T/R module testing, power amplifier testing, radar cross section measuring and antenna pattern testing.

'We found Artisan's approach to reverse engineering both efficient and accurate'.
'For software engineering, we were especially drawn to the flexibility of being able to use the code synchronisers independently of a software development environment'.
'We also found that Artisan provided extremely powerful capabilities for extending or customising Artisan Studio should we need to create a custom capability'.
'And finally, Artisan's support was excellent which, coupled with our other technical criteria, made Artisan Studio an easy choice'.
Jeremy Goulding, President and CEO of Artisan Software Tools, commented: 'As the provider of the most complete UML 2.0/SysML development solution on the market, Artisan is pleased to add Aeroflex to its list of satisfied customers'.
'Artisan has taken a lead in the support of UML 2.0 and SysML, as the foundations of many of their key features have long been incorporated in Artisan Studio as extensions to the original UML standard'.
'While other tool vendors have been hedging their bets with proprietary or earlier OO technologies, Artisan has been pushing the UML envelope to the benefit of all our customers'.
'Now, as a contributor to the UML 2.0/SysML standards, Artisan has raised the expectation levels of tool support in the market and continues to innovate with customer-driven features'.
