The diagram usage enables the modeler or methodologist to specify a unique usage of a SysML diagram type using the extension mechanism described in Annex A, “Diagrams.”
The entities are conceptual in nature during the initial phase of development, but will be refined as part of the development process.
The «system» and «external» stereotypes are user defined, not specified in SysML, but help the modeler to identify the system of interest relative to its environment.
Each model element depicted may include a graphical icon to help convey its intended meaning.
The spatial relationship of the entities on the diagram sometimes conveys understanding as well, although this is not specifically captured in the semantics.
Also, a background such as a map can be included to provide additional context.
The associations among the classes may represent abstract conceptual relationships among the entities, which would be refined in subsequent diagrams.
Note how the relationships in this diagram are also reflected in the Automotive Domain Model Block Definition Diagram, Figure D.15.
