Part II: System Architecture Activities This is Part II in a series of three posts about Table Views in GENESYS. In Part I, our guide reviews what a metachain is and the nature of metachain queries, how requirements traceability tables can be an invaluable aid to a systems engineering practice, …

Recap from Part 1 of the discussion: I was tasked with building a thread of system features related to the control, guidance, and navigation of a military aircraft.  The end product must show the system’s behavior at different hierarchical levels: system capabilities, system features, and subsystem features.  The model must …

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 …

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 …
