SysML Modelling Language explained
This article introduces the OMG SysML modelling language, dedicated to complex systems combining software and hardware realisations.
SysML, adopted in 2006 by the Object Management Group, provides a vocabulary suitable to Systems Engineering e.g. by modelling Blocks instead of classes.
SysML uses a subset of UML2 and defines its own extensions, making it a smaller language that is easier to learn and apply.
Abstract:
UML, the standard modelling language used in the field of software engineering, has been tailored to define a modelling language for systems: SysML or Systems Modeling Language.
This article is intended to provide a non-exhaustive presentation of SysML including some background about Systems Engineering and SysML, and a review of each SysML diagram and modelling techniques.
