CORE End-of-Life Announcement

After a remarkable lifespan of more than 30 years for our original model-based system engineering software, CORE, we have made the decision to officially announce the end of life for the CORE product line. This decision was not made lightly. The development helps pave the way for a new era …

Concurrency for Select

In modeling a behavior, we often need to represent a selection logic controlled by a set of stimuli.  How we do it correctly and sufficiently lies within how well we understand the Executable Constructs. Let us take a look at the behavior of automobile traffic at an intersection controlled by …

Digital Integration and MBSE

The quest for a “single source of truth” and a model-based systems engineering (MBSE) practice grounded in integrated data is underway across the systems engineering world. The goals are laudable and the work being done is important, but there are some pitfalls along the way. It is critical that, in …

Architectural Views Using N2 Diagrams (Part 2)

Recap In part 1 of this blog, I presented an architectural object to reduce wiring in an automotive vehicle by transitioning from a centrally controlled corner management system to a distributed corner-controlled corner management system. The focus was on the physical domain impacts and I demonstrated what these systems looked …
