Webinar Zielsetzung: Stärkung MBSE Einsatz

Referent:in: Tim Weilkiens and Jesko Lamm

Position: Tim Weilkiens is a MBSE'er by passion. He is a MBSE consultant, trainer, author of many books, owner of the publishing company MBSE4U, and lecturer of master courses. He is an active member of the Object Manage-ment Group (OMG). Tim contributed to the original SysML specification and continues to work on SysML. He is currently co-chair of the OMG SysML v2 Finalization Task Force.

Beschreibung: Whoever likes to keep developing systems with market success needs to be in control of system functions, for example, based on an explicit definition of the system’s functional architecture. However, it is usually the system that is sold and not the artifact that defines its functional architecture. This calls for a lean and easy way to work with functional architectures. During this webinar, two practitioners of functional architecture work, Tim Weilkiens and Jesko Lamm, will present the approaches they have developed over the years to define and handle functional architectures in a system development context. These approaches are based on the FAS Method, which they published in the year 2010 and improved via several subsequent publications. In this 1st webinar talk an introduction to the FAS method itself and some supporting analysis methods will be in scope including:* The motivation for working with functional architectures* A quick introduction to the work with a well-defined system context and use cases as a precondition for the application of the FAS method* An extensive description of how to apply the FAS method by refinement of use cases, functional grouping, and identification of the resulting functional blocks* A brief deep-dive into the “FAS-as-a-formula” representation of the FAS method, which is one single matrix equation that captures the essence of the method and hence allows for easy automation of the corresponding steps* A revisit of the preconditions to show a way to identify the needed use cases based on storyboards of the system’s operational scenarios.Tim and Jesko will provide an outlook into the application of the method in daily work and with available tools to teaser their 2nd webinar talk, scheduled for November 8th. This part I, however, will stay out of detailed discussions about tools and modeling languages. It will use example representations of functional architecture in both informal representations as well as in SysML models to introduce already the different formats one may need for different stakeholder groups, or also for different kinds of systems engineering activities.Take-Away Key Message* Use functional architectures to stay in control of the system under development * Try the FAS method as an easy approach to derive and explain the functional architecture * Some steps in the FAS method can be easily automated if needed * Storyboards may be a good means to obtain the input you need for applying the FAS method

Beschreibung: Join us for an exciting event exploring the world of Systems Engineering and its vital role in engineering successful systems. Systems Engineering relies on a set of 30 system life cycle processes, which act as a template for organizations to engineer systems. These processes are described in detail in two sources, the ISO 15288:2015 and the INCOSE handbook v4, both of which embody the expertise of professionals from diverse industries. These processes are some sort of a template for an enterprise which develops systems. And – as every template – it must be tailored to the reality before application. Tailoring these processes to meet organizational and product needs requires an in-depth understanding of their contents, including concepts, relations between them, and their meaning. However, with a 300-page book, it can be challenging to answer important questions such as how processes "architecture definition" and "design" are related or what processes use the artifact "life cycle concepts". This webinar will introduce a new INCOSE Technical Product for enterprise systems engineering that addresses this need. Our product, called the Digital Systems Engineering Process Model, offers clear, interactive access to all aspects of the systems engineering life cycle processes, providing a template that you can use for model-based systems engineering of enterprises. Take-Away Message • The Digital Systems Engineering Process Model, a new INCOSE product, is now available. • The product offers an interactive handbook with easily accessible information on systems engineering life cycle processes, their inputs, and outputs. • The product serves as a template for model-based enterprise engineering and can be used in any modeling tool of your choice.

Referent:in: Chris Swickline

Position: Chris Swickline serves as a Senior Principle Digital Engineer within the Digital Systems Engineering group of Science Applications International Corporation

Beschreibung: As system complexity increases, a greater number of organizations are being asked to contribute architecture/design content for systems development. An essential challenge to overcome is how to ensure digital continuity in connecting system models to form Systems of Systems (SoS) models. A method is presented for SysML model federation enabling multiple contributing organizations to provide peer models for inclusion within a federation SoS model. This method builds upon previously published Systems Architecture Model (SAM) development method reinforced with automated model syntax validation, Cameo implemented style guide, and example model. Systems engineers applying this method are able to reuse constituent systems model content, from the problem and/or solution space, to describe the larger SoS behavior and structure while promoting reusability and commonality. This method is designed to permit style diversity across peer constituent models and ensure that every piece of data has an Authoritative Source of Truth (ASOT) within the federation. Multiple applicable examples within the defense industry are presented as well as real world example showing specific evidence of a measurable improvement. Systems engineering practitioners engaged in Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) will take away a multi-model management approach to construct SoS descriptive models in SysML in line with the DOD’s Digital Engineering (DE) Strategy.Take-Away Message • MBSE is a valuable tool in managing the complexity of systems engineering development • Having a well understood methodology is essential to success in MBSE • The presented methodology is proven across a number of development programs / program offices and may serve as a repeatable approach • Federated modeling offers the best path forward for complex SoS engineering across multiple development teams • The power of automated model validation based in structured expressions is a differentiator for successful MBSE
