Model-Based System Architecture – (Wiley Series in Systems Engineering and Management) – eBook

Description

This ebook, Model-Based System Architecture (PDF), is a pivotal resource that seamlessly merges the evolving field of systems architecting with cutting-edge model-based methodologies through SysML. In the initial chapters, readers will be introduced to the core principles of systems architecture, detailing the intricacies of systems architecting and its transformative impact on systems engineering practices. A clear definition of model-based systems engineering is provided along with an exploration of its capabilities—enabling the development of intricate systems that are not only delivered on schedule but also meet stringent quality standards.

As the e-textbook progresses, it delves into a wide array of crucial topics essential for mastering systems architecting, including but not limited to: architecture patterns, detailed architecture descriptions, and the nuanced distinctions among viewpoints, perspectives, and views in relation to system architecture. The text elaborates on the systems architecting process, and innovative agile approaches tailored for systems architecting. It also highlights the pivotal roles played by system architects, their teams, and various stakeholders involved in the architecture lifecycle. Furthermore, the ebook explores diverse architecture frameworks and variant modeling techniques, along with strategies for architecture assessment.

The structured layout of the ebook is thoughtfully designed to cater to both experienced professionals and newcomers in the field. Experts in the discipline can navigate the chapters non-sequentially, while novices benefit from a sequential reading that offers a well-rounded introduction to systems architecting.
