Leveraging Modular Open Systems Architecture (MOSA) for System Design

Modular Open Systems Architecture (MOSA) has emerged as a critical technical and business strategy for developing affordable, adaptable, and sustainable defense systems. By mandating interface descriptions, standardized relationships, and components that support incremental capability insertion throughout the system life cycle, MOSA enables defense programs to maintain pace with rapid technological change while reducing long-term acquisition costs.

Using the UH-60 Black Hawk avionics system as a case study, this presentation walks through requirements capture, structural definition, and behavior modeling with SysML v2.
