«MBSE is the New SE: Establishing the New Culture in the Organization»

International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) introduce Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) as the modern approach to Systems Engineering (SE) as well as envision that MBSE becomes a common practice and a synonym of SE by 2020. However, a lot of organizations, though understanding potential benefits of MBSE, struggle in changing their engineering practices from document-based to model-based approach and establishing a strong modelling culture. To get started they need a transparent vision, which would answer the questions like “how long does it take to adopt MBSE?”, “what are the main phases of this process?”, “how long does each phase take?”, “what are the main deliverables and showstoppers of each phase?”, “what parties and how many people are involved in the process?”, “which party should take the leading role?”, “is MBSE adoption worth the investment at all?”

In this presentation, we are going to introduce a typical tool-independent scenario of MBSE deployment in the organization – all the way towards achieving the vision of INCOSE, that is, making MBSE the new SE. The content of this presentation is based on working experience of deploying MBSE in many worldwide-known organizations from various industries: automotive, aerospace, space, transportation, defence, medical devices, mobile devices, and telecommunications.

«Automatic Traceability between models and requirements: The trigger for Systems Engineering Interoperability»

Latest times have seen the emergence of Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) as a complete methodology to address the challenge of unifying the techniques, methods and tools to support the whole specification process of a system around the application of models (conceptual design, system requirements, design, analysis, verification or validation, etc.). In order to enable a collaborative MBSE through IT systems, different initiatives, frameworks, services and languages such as the ISO 10303 (STEP), the SysML or UML languages or the OASIS OSLC (Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration) initiative can be found. Thus, while MBSE represents an ideal approach to develop complex systems, OSLC can be seen as a key enabler to equip engineering tools with the ability of exchanging data and information under common data and communication protocols. In this manner, it is possible to tackle critical activities that require this holistic view of a system such as system traceability.

Authors present here a novel but in-use approach to access any system artifact content through OSLC, to represent such contents under a common representation language and to provide an operation for automatically discovery of traceability links between requirements and models. More specifically, this presentation will show how to access: 1) system requirements stored in different requirements management tools such as IBM DOORS, PTC Integrity, etc. and 2) system models represented in the SysML, FMI/FMU and Modelica languages and designed in tools such as Rhapsody, MagicDraw, Simulink, Papyrus, etc., and how to represent and automatically discover traceability links between this two types of artifacts: requirements and system models.

This work is framed in the wider challenges the company Procter and Gamble attempts to solve in its MBSE approach for the next years with the collaboration of Modelon and The Reuse Company.

«Integrating Program Management and Systems Engineering for High Performance»

Four years of primary research by INCOSE, PMI, and MIT has resulted in a framework and numerous insights for improving program performance by integrating the program management and systems engineering disciplines in the program. Integration reflects an organization’s ability to combine program management and systems engineering practices, tools and techniques, experience, and knowledge in a collaborative and systematic approach in order to be more effective in complex program development environments. In the study, programs that showed higher levels of integration along the dimensions in the framework performed better than those that did not. Examples and case studies are used to show how the elements of the framework function in actual programs. The complete findings of the study and additional contributed insights are captured in the new book Integrating Program Management and Systems Engineering: Methods, Tools, and Organizational Systems for Improving Performance.
