“…An important aspect associated with the use of models is enabling the reuse of information that is already captured in models into later/future development or reuse of different model variants. The reuse of the models can be planned or unplanned as well (Wu et al, 2020). Keeping the later reuse in mind, there are a number of contributions that deal with the reuse (Lange et al, 2018;Shani and Broodney, 2015;Wu et al, 2019) of models.…”

MBSE and SysML are increasingly finding their applications in industry as well as in academia. The reuse of the information described in SysML models depends, among others, on the modelling methods, management of dependencies between elements and on the needed remodelling effort. In this paper, a modelling method is presented that address the reuse of SysML models and descriptions as well as reuse of model variants in SysML. A case example is presented to explain the modelling methods and the gained experience is summarised in the form of general recommendations for further use.

“…To its advantage, COTS could be selected and implemented for technical (shortening the developmental phase), organizational (reducing the overall cost of the developmental phase), or strategic reasons (access to technology not available internally) [33]. Recently, professional COTS often comes with supporting documentation such as proof of verification, validation conformance, and manufacture specifications or fact sheet.…”

The Systems Engineering design process is challenged to deliver successful complex systems in multidisciplinary and heterogeneous components. Growing human needs and evolving society bring ever greater challenges in the formation of a complex and large engineered system. System complexity is related to lots of parts and large size of the system when there is difficulty in understanding how the system works or in predicting the consequences of any change that may affect the process and systems develop itself. The leadership is performing an important role to manage a complex system. Leaders should be able to set back from immediate focus and look at the desired big picture. In practice, many factors contribute to Systems Engineering complexity in this review. This study intends to explore and analyze the complexities and the factors that contribute to the complexity of the Systems Engineering design approach. The data in this study were collected systematically from several electronic scholarly databases, including the ISI Web of Science, Scopus, Wiley Online Library. This study quantified the challenges and causes of the Systems Engineer complexity. Then, the challenges were categorized into two groups, managerial and technical causes. Ultimately, seven Systems Engineering complexity factors were identified, and their impact on the Systems Engineering processes was ranked using the Pareto principle. Among the factors, rapidly emerging technology was the most significant factor contributing to Systems Engineering complexity.

“…(3) Pattern based System model reuse: Wu [10] discussed and analysed the reuse of proprietary using patterns in model based system engineering, which integrates the capitalization, reuse and update capabilities of patterns in the form of library. Yuan [11] focused on the trade-off process of design, and achieved the reuse of the model by defining the way of solving the problem model.…”

With the implementation and application of MBSE (Model Based System Engineering) in enterprises, a vast number of system model files is constantly and increasingly generated. The problem of how to acquire the knowledge carried by the system model and reuse the system model is urgently required to be solved. Therefore, a cross-products system model graph construction method supporting system model reuse is proposed. System model graph is constructed by defining the SysML metamodel ontology and the construction strategy is given. The entity alignment based on the relationship set and the rule-based reasoning is applied to achieve the fusion of multiple subgraphs, and the semantic extended retrieval of design requirements is realized based on this graph. Finally, the case studies of the Automatic Climate Control Integrated System of car and satellite design verify the effectiveness and practicability of the method, supporting system model reuse. In conclusion, the paper indicates that it is feasible to express the system model with knowledge graph and the constructed system model knowledge graph can well support the retrieval and reuse of cross-products system models.
