Overview
Simple SysML for Beginners: Using IBM Rhapsody is for beginners. This book is for beginning modelers who have just purchased an IBM Rhapsody edition that supports SysML modeling and are anxious to get started, but otherwise don’t know too much about SysML and don’t have much experience using SysML tools. The purpose of this book is to help the reader get through the initial learning curve and start the reader on the way to becoming proficient at SysML modeling.
The book is designed to be a tool companion for two of the more comprehensive books on SysML:
- SysML Distilled: A Brief Guide to the Systems Modeling Language by Lenny Delligatti.
- A Practical Guide to SysML, Third Edition: The Systems Modeling Language by Sanford Friedenthal et al..
Rhapsody® is a trademark of International Business Machines Corporation ("IBM").
Limitations
- Requirements Engineering - This book is not an exhaustive text on requirements engineering. However, the "Further Reading" appendix does list a number of excellent books for deeper understanding of this topic.
- Tool Version - The first edition of this book was authored using IBM Engineering Systems Design Rhapsody version 9.01. Future versions of Rhapsody may have significant changes to the user interface.
- Tool Manual - This is a beginner’s introduction and is not a comprehensive reference for every feature of the tool.
- Screen Captures - Most readers appreciate our approach of providing annotated screen captures of the actual tool. However, there are physical technology issues that limit the level of sharpness we can achieve in this format. A small number of readers of previous books in this series have expressed frustration on this point.
Über die Autorinnen und Autoren
David Hetherington is a leading Model-Based Systems Engineering(MBSE) consultant serving multiple defense and commercial industrysectors. He has extensive personal experience in designing and leadingdesign teams for both software and hardware covering an unusuallybroad range of system types. These complex systems have varied fromreal-time control, to software internationalization, to offshore oil drillships, to enterprise software applications, to automotive radar chipsets,to electronic publishing, and more. In addition to MBSE, he has astrong concentration of domain knowledge in safety, reliability, maintainability,and diagnostics. He uses this broad domain knowledge incombination with his MBSE skills to assist clients at two levels:• Individual Skills - He teaches engineers across a wide varietyof disciplines to sharpen their systems thinking and producehigher quality work products by using MBSE tools and techniquesto clarify the requirements and objectives of their specializeddesigns.• Organizational Transformation - He supports executives faced with the challenge of bringingteams with legacy, siloed, "document-centric" development habits into the integrated digital engineeringfuture.David is an active member of:• INCOSE - International Council on Systems Engineering• IEEE - Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers• SAE - Society of Automotive Engineers• United States Naval InstituteDavid speaks Japanese and German fluently as well as some Chinese and Spanish. He lives in Austin, Texas.
Frank holds a degree in communications engineering, as well as a master's degree in electronics design. He worked for many years in the development of embedded real-time systems, gaining crucial intuition about the issues that drive the architecture and design of systems products. In 2001, he joined I-Logix, which was co-founded by David Harel, the inventor of the UML state charts. I-Logix was the initial developer of the Rhapsody product, a Model-Driven Development (MDD) solution. Rhapsody rapidly became the industry-leading Model-Driven Development environment for Systems and Software Engineering. Rhapsody was the spark that ignited Frank's passion for Model-Based Systems and Software Engineering. Since then, Frank has become an expert in the intricate details of the UML and SysML standards. He has also been an enthusiastic and passionate Rhapsody user, trainer, and coach. Frank has supported many customers in the development and realization of their products and systems. As a trainer, he has led several hundred Rhapsody courses and touched the lives and careers of thousands of engineers around the world. The positive feedback from these engineers continues to inspire Frank on his journey though the ever more complex universe of model-based engineering and the emerging digital thread. Frank maintains a YouTube Channel called Rhapsody Guru where he regularly shares his experiences and insights. In recent years, Frank has been supporting client projects involving cross-domain hybrid environments using Rhapsody, CATIA Magic, and Sparx Enterprise Architect, as well as the open source Capella tool that supports the Arcadia method. Frank is committed to his family and likes to spend his free time camping all over Europe with his wife Leila and his daughters Yamina and Myriam, without whose encouragement and patient support this book would not have been possible.
Olivier has an extensive background in electronics, with a special focus on microprocessors. Olivier moved to model-based development more than thirty years ago, first for software engineering, then for systems engineering. He has supported clients in developing rigorous specifications for major rail, automotive, aerospace/defense, medical, and embedded systems projects. During his long career in model-based development, Olivier has had the opportunity to work for several of the companies that have produced top model-based development tools. This experience has given him a nuanced understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of each tool, as well as a strong understanding of where users run into difficulties understanding the tools and the modeling languages. He spends much of his time teaching the top SysML tools as well as teaching the Arcadia method and the open source Capella tool that supports it. He also coaches clients in developing their in-house tool methodologies, creates animated training materials, and serves as a mentor to senior product architects. He draws on his deep model-based development experience to help clients develop language and tools best practices all the way through the systems engineering "V" cycle - from the initial concept to field deployment and disposal. Olivier is a frequent conference speaker and serves clients worldwide - Europe, North America, Asia, and Australia. He lives near Paris.
