Dr Darren's Open Letter on managing a range of skill levels at SysML/MBSE courses (for trainers, training organisations, and their potential clients)

Keywords

Keywords

This is an open letter to MBSE trainers (especially SysML trainers), training organisations, and to organisations seeking to engage trainers and training organisations. It is not specific to the Webel IT Australia courses. It's for all of us involved in the SysML education community.
This content is "read-only" for your possible interest.

Dr Darren says: Don't be scared to put yourself out there with your SysML Diagrams in public and in your work with colleagues

Keywords

Dr Darren explains:

Many years ago, on a very old version of the Webel site, I had up a quick attempt at mapping out the families of physics particles in SysML. Although I have a PhD in physics (astrophysics), and had even worked at the DESY particle accelerator institute (on data analysis, and modelling and operating the machines, not particle physics), I am not an expert in particle physics.

Q: What types of simulation, execution, and calculation are available for SysML with MagicDraw/Cameo?

Keywords

Keywords

There are a number of ways of simulating and executing various aspects of Systems Modeling Language v1 (SysML®), and they are not just novelties! They also really help your models become more robust, logical, and organised.

There is "internal" tool simulation of Activities and StateMachines based on fUML (or variations of it).

Screencast: MagicDraw SysML/Cameo: Pros and Cons of custom stereotypes in combination with Block inheritance and Part Property structures

Keywords

Video style

Audience: Users of MagicDraw SysML or Cameo Systems Modeler who are experimenting with creating custom stereotypes for SysML.

This screencast video has been created to illustrate some pros and cons of using custom stereotypes in combination with Block inheritance and Part Property structures, and demonstrates some possible "gotchas". It concerns especially use of custom stereotypes to indicate: (1) cross-cutting aspects such as model layer membership; (2) use of tagged values to carry per-Element metadata.
