Systems Modeling Language (SysML) Date Saturday, 4 April 2009 Time 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM Location Raytheon Company, Aurora, Colorado The OMG Systems Modeling Language (OMG SysML™) is a general-purpose, graphical, modeling language for specifying, analyzing, designing, and verifying complex systems that may include hardware, software, information, personnel, procedures, and facilities. In particular, it provides graphical representations with a semantic foundation for modeling system requirements, behavior, structure, and parametric equations that can integrate with a broad range of engineering analysis. SysML represents a subset of UML 2.0 with extensions to satisfy the requirements of the UML™ for Systems Engineering RFP. The OMG SysML™ Specification was adopted in May 2006. For more information on SysML, including articles, tool vendor and related links, and the specification, go to http://www.omgsysml.org/. This tutorial provides an introduction to how SysML can address your systems engineering needs including: background and motivation, an overview of the SysML diagram types and language concepts, and a demonstration of how the language can be used throughout the Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) process. A class exercise is also included to help solidify the student’s understanding of the language. Attendees should gain appreciation of the value of MBSE versus legacy document-centric methods, awareness of the graphical notation, and a ...
