The aim of this paper is to present the advancement of the Matlab/SIMULINK based simulator of the ATV (Automated Transfer Vehicle) project. The ATV (Automated Transfer Vehicle) program was started by ESA in 1995. The complexity of the missions and the costs involved imply the development of a complete simulator. The simulator is composed of many models, all of them running under Eurosim. It is developed on a different platform than the models and its main characteristics are that it is real time and have to support hardware in the loop. The development of each numerical model follows the same pattern: - Technical Requirement Specification - Architectural Design Phase - Implementation Phase - Model Validation - Simulator Integration and Validation. In order to fulfil these different steps, various tools have to be used: SIMULINK is used during the specification and design phases of the numerical models, the coding phase and during the models validation phases on host machine. Real Time Workshop is used for generating ANSI C code and Mosaic is used during the integration of the models into EUROSIM. EUROSIM is used for the design of the simulator, for the real time integration of the numerical models and finally for the validation of the overall simulation software. Some key points can be highlighted in the development, the testing and the integration; they will be developed further in the paper together with project management and team organization aspects.
