Sample models
Sample examples of Capella projects are available to familiarize yourself with the concepts manipulated in Capella, the different engineering phases of Arcadia, and the good practices on how to model your system of interest through efficient means and ergonomic facilities.
Note: IFE is embedded within Capella distribution
The Capella IFE sample model is an overly simplified vision of what a real in-flight entertainment system is. It is partial and mainly designed for educational purposes.
For any question about the model (tool- or method-related), please post a question in the forum.
The model is embedded within Capella distribution in the 'samples' folder. It is also available for download here.
Quick reading guidelines: 2 pages giving a reading path through diagrams
Highlights: A set of 75 slides with tool and method tips and tricks
The Alarm Clock sample model is a set of slides illustrating precisely, step-by-step, how to use Capella to build a model. At this stage, it describes Operational Anlaysis, System Need Analysis and Logical Architecture.
For any tool-related question about the model, please use the Capella Forum or consult the PRFC website.
The model is available for download here.
Highlights: A set of 45 slides with tool and method tips and tricks
