Introduction to SysML v2

Tutorial: Introduction to SysML v2

Presenter: Sanford Friedenthal

Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) formalizes the practice of systems engineering through the use of models. The Systems Modeling Language (SysML) v2 is the next-generation Systems Modeling Language to support the evolving practice of MBSE and address the challenges of increasing system complexity and rapid technological changes. SysML v2 provides significant enhancements over SysML v1 in terms of language precision, expressiveness, regularity, interoperability, usability, and extensibility.

This tutorial provides students with an introduction to SysMl v2 language concepts using both graphical and textual notation. The language concepts include model organization, system structure, behavior, requirements, analysis, and verification. The instructor will demonstrate the application of the language concepts to modeling a simple system with a modeling tool. This tutorial provides the student with a basic understanding of SysML v2 to enable them to begin using SysML v2 to develop simple models. It also provides the foundation for the student to explore the language in more detail.

Learning Objectives

1. Understand SysML v2 basic language concepts

2. Understand how the language concepts are expressed using both the graphical and textual notation

3. Understand how a selected tool is used to create simple SysML v2 models using the textual notation

4. Have a foundation to further their knowledge of MBSE with SysML v2

Biography - Sanford Friedenthal

Instructor Bio. Sanford Friedenthal is an industry leader and independent consultant in model-based systems engineering (MBSE). He was formerly a Technical Fellow at Lockheed Martin, where he led the effort to enable Model-Based Systems Development (MBSD) and other advanced practices across the company. Mr. Friedenthal has been a leader of the industry standards effort through the Object Management Group (OMG) and INCOSE to develop the Systems Modeling Language (OMG SysML ®) that was adopted by the OMG in 2007, and more recently co-lead the effort to develop the next generation of SysML (v2). He is co-author of ‘A Practical Guide to SysML’ and ‘Architecting Spacecraft with SysML’.
