UPDM in Compliance with SysML March 21, Aurelijus Morkevicius

2. Existing approach for SysML compliancy
context Class inv:
UPDM::Node::allInstances()->exists(n|n.base_Class=self) implies
SysML::Block::allInstances()->exists(b| b.base_Class = self)

3. Disadvantages Doubled work in testing interexchange
Model trashed with stereotypes (capacity)
Diagrams are more difficult to read (readability)
Maintenance of the OCL constraints
OCL constraints are difficult to understand for the majority of the users

4. A new approach for SysML compliancy

5. Advantages Tremendous work reduction in testing interexchange
Model not overloaded with stereotypes
XMI size reduced (faster serialization)
OCL constraints for compliance are no longer needed to maintain
L0 level is no longer needed!

6. UML and SysML Impact to UPDM March 21, 2013 Aurelijus Morkevicius
Accelerating the Model Driven Enterprise
UML and SysML Impact to UPDM March 21, Aurelijus Morkevicius

7. Potential impact of the latest UML
UML 2.4 (very slight impact)
UML 2.5 Specification simplification (no impact). We will probably support it in UAFP 1.0
UML 2.6 Not scheduled yet. Scope is not defined

8. Potential impact of the latest SysML
SysML 1.3 Introduces proxy ports, full ports, and interface blocks
SysML 1.4
Planned to be compatible with UML 2.5
Changes the way the units, dimensions, and value types are handled
Other accepted changes do not affect UPDM-SysML mapping
We will probably support it in UAFP 1.0
SysML 1.5 Not scheduled yet. Scope is not defined

9. Proxy Port
Proxy port identifies features of the owning block or its internal parts that are available to external blocks through external connectors to the ports
Proxy port type is interface block - a specialized kind of block that has no behaviors or internal parts and owns flow properties

10. Proxy Port
Is Conjugated Marking
Direction

11. Full Port
Full ports specify a separate element of the system from the owning block or its internal parts. They might have their own internal parts, and behaviors.
Acts like a part attached to the boundary of the context block.
Full port is typed by the block
