Model-based systems engineering

Common frameworks

SysML

OPM

UML

Doors NG

Common tools

OPCloud

Matlab

Modelica

Microsoft visio

3D experience

Etc

Airbus

Digital design manufacturing and simulation

Roller coaster tycoon seems like a pretty good system model

Or simulator

NASA JPL created a total integration environment

OpenMBEE

integrated things like

Github

Jira

Jupyter

Cameo simulation

Docker

Etc

Turn the systems engineering V into a Diamond

The real world V gets mirrored in a parallel digital pipeline

Are we modeling the product or the process?

Either, both

Model process to model a product…?

Often the process is the product

In software, the gradient between model and product is more blurry

Maybe that also makes it harder to justify modeling, it feels more productive to focus on the product directly

But the product is essentially a robust model

First do system engineering, then build a model

Make requirements less dumb

Delete the part or process

Simplify or optimize the design

Modeling is when the place you document is the same as the place you think about and examine

“Documenting with style”

Model based enterprise

Digital twin

Digital thread

requirements are typically how engineers communicate

System engineer delivers system technical solution

System architecture delivers system concept and plan

Program manager delivers value to the system stakeholders
