Multidiscipline virtual prototype top-level modeling language for complex product

In order to accurately describe top-level model in different development stages, tools and departments for the virtual prototype development of complex product, a system top-level modeling language used to describe the system's structure, behavior and interrelationships was proposed. In the top-level modeling language, system model was divided into static structure and dynamic behavior. Unified Modeling Language (UML) profile for top-level modeling was provided for its extension and the specification of model information exchange based on extensible Markup Language (XML) was the base of tools' interoperation. The language was compliant with Model Driven Architecture (MDA), which could be mapped to different programming languages, middleware, and tools. Finally, a tool supporting the language called HLM IDE and an example, force system generated by computer illustrated the effectiveness of the language.
