8. © Telelogic AB The Role of Models Models can be used to complement requirements management at each of the different layers and are useful in a number of ways: Architecture modeling adds formality to the design process that lies between each layer of requirement The architecture model promotes an active understanding of the details in large requirements documents The design rationale gathered around the architecture model becomes the rationale for traceability between layers of requirements The structure of the architecture model can be used to give structure to the requirements document The architecture model is the basis for: –costing, interoperability analysis, partitioning to different development teams, scheduling (WBS), analysis of alternatives, early validation, and risk management.

9. © Telelogic AB Systems Modeling Techniques A very wide range of very domain-specific modeling techniques may be used to aid systems design: –Aerodynamic models using wind tunnels –Safety, reliability and maintainability models –Weight distribution models –Network performance models using queuing theory Although many models are necessarily domain-specific, every system has aspects which can be modeled using a basic approach such as DoDAF. A basic architecture model that proves that the architecture provides the desired capabilities (structure and behavior) should be done prior to committing resources to more detailed modeling and simulation.

11. © Telelogic AB Activities in the Systems Engineering Process There are two major activities in the Basic systems engineering process: –To analyze the input requirements and create a model –To derive the output requirements from the model These steps are applied recursively through the layers.

19. © Telelogic AB Object Oriented Workflow Structure Analysis decomposes behaviour and structure separately, then does an explicit allocation of behaviour to structure. –Data, Behaviour and Structure are considered independently –Activity model (OV-5) focus OO Methods focus on objects (the things that possess behaviour and structure) and does implicit allocation of behaviour to structure. –Data, Behaviour and Structure are considered simultaneously –Main goal is to describe re-useable objects that encapsulate behaviour and structure. –Lends itself to iterative development and resilient architectures. –Event Trace (OV-6c) focus The Case Study uses a blend of the two methodologies (as does DoDAF itself).
