*** About the session
Model Based Systems Engineering is generating a considerable amount of interest – occasionally verging on controversy in the discipline of Systems Engineering, especially when large-scale systems and their collaborative development for a broad range of applications are considered. Professional bodies are promoting standards such as the IEC/ISO/IEEE 15288 on «Systems and software engineering – System life cycle » and guides such as the living authoritative to the « Systems Engineering Body of Knowledge » in order to support the systems engineering and management framework in a documentation-based way.
Model-Based System Engineering (MBSE) can be considered as a science of complex system architecture. It produces models as the main deliverables of the system engineering process, and replaces conventional approaches based on generating documentation and software development lifecycle. MBSE incorporates methods and the underlying repositories so as to ensure data integrity, thoroughness, and traceability along a system’s entire life cycle, and to improve communication and productivity among all stakeholders. In such manner, it consolidates knowledge and expertise, so system engineers can improve their analyses and decision-making in the face of multiple objectives and constraints. Current approaches for applying MBSE to Information Systems use the newest innovations in methodology to structure systems into coherent, functional blocks built around information services. New approaches enable information system engineers to analyse specifications using quantitative sizing criteria and identifying needs from the scratch to facilitate a gap analysis between existing and targeted system capacity.
When applying MBSE concepts to information systems modelling, current Systems engineering guidelines are not sufficient to explore the holistic dimension of the required problem-solving systems approach. What is a system remains a questionable notion according to the role of the modeller in the loop of engineering man-made socio-technical systems. What are the interactions that the system under requirements specification has to measure from and to control on its environment as well as from and on its structure throughout its life-cycle? How to perceive, to understand and to represent multi scale aspects of systems with models and process-driven guidelines? A very high interest of researchers’ community to this new paradigm of Model-Based information Systems Modelling gave rise to the new concepts and methods from languages, knowledge modelling to digital models. Due to this larger span, it seems that the traditional view of systems engineering will need to evolve.
The invited session aims to bring together the novel contributions related to the diversity of modelling methods, architecture, language and tools for systems modelling in order to identify the current gaps when applied to information systems modelling and thus improving the systems that are using them. Authors are invited to submit original contributions on all aspects of conceptual, theoretical, empirical and technological models and frameworks, including but not limited to:
– Semantic issues in Enterprise Information Models
– Systems engineering Modelling Language (SysML)
– Knowledge representations
– Models-based Internet-of-Everything
– Digital Enterprise Models
– Architecture frameworks (TOGAF, NAF, MODAF, DoDAF, etc.)
