Growing Pains: Learning from SysML v1

Tom Sawyer Software offers integrations with NoMagic Cameo products and IBM Rhapsody to automatically generate Systems Modeling Language (SysML) diagrams. The language provides a standard for systems engineers to use when specifying and designing complex systems. We also provide a prototype visualization for SysML v2, currently under development.

The layout property settings of our Model-Based Engineering application allow users to choose the location of ports in their Internal Block Diagrams.

Tom Sawyer Software’s CTO, Joshua Feingold, has been participating in the development of SysML for years. In this two-part blog series, Josh will share knowledge he’s gained from his position in the SysML community about the past, present, and future of the modeling language.

Introducing Intelligent MBSE Diagram Automation to Global Leaders at INCOSE 2017 in Australia

INCOSE 2017 Keynote Speaker AVM Mel Hupfeld’s Presentation on Force Design

Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is revolutionizing how engineers tackle big projects in critical industries such as aerospace, energy, government, manufacturing, and telecom. One barrier to MBSE for many organizations is maintaining, customizing, and validating the hundreds of diagrams associated with a complex model.

Systems engineers often spend only 20 percent of their time modeling the system. The remaining 80 percent is spent rearranging and maintaining diagrams. Automatically rearranging MBSE diagrams reverses this dynamic and lets engineers focus on engineering.
