SysML model-driven approach to verify blocks compatibility

A Model-Driven Approach to Adapt SysML Blocks

Reusing and adapting existing components is the central topic of component-based development. The major differences between the existing approaches concern the models used to represent the components and the detail given to generate the adapters. In this paper, we present our approach which bases on the hierarchy to generate the adapters. Our components are modelled using SysML blocks and their...

A Process Algebraic Approach to Decomposition of Communicating SysML Blocks

The block concept is a fundamental modelling construct in the Systems Modeling Language (SysML), a visual modelling language for systems engineering applications. In a top-down systems engineering approach, an abstract block is decomposed into concrete communicating sub-blocks. However, the classifier behaviour of the abstract block must be exhibited by the composition of the concrete sub-block...

Model-Driven Engineering Approach For SysML Activity Diagram Simulation

This study aims to automate the simulation of activity diagram (AD) in accordance with the OMG SysML specifications. We use the concept of model-driven engineering to transform AD into VHDL-AMS. This transformation is depicted in two transformations based on specifications given by the Object Management Group (OMG): Activity Diagram (AD) to Petri net (PN) and PN to VHDL-AMS. We have established...

SysML-based systems engineering using a model-driven development approach

Model-Driven User Requirements Specification using SysML

Requirements engineering is an important phase in a system’s life cycle. When poorly performed, various problems may occur, such as failures, cost overrun and delays. The increasing complexity of systems makes requirements engineering activities both more important and more difficult. Model-driven engineering, in which models are the main artifact during system development, is an emergent appro...
