Model Based Systems Engineering
INCOSE Definition
• “formalized application of modeling to
support system requirements, design,
analysis, verification, and validation, beginning
in the conceptual design phase and continuing
throughout development and later life cycle
phases”
• Advantages
– Project information can be readily shared within large,
complex projects
– changes can be easily accommodated
– Comprehensive traceability can be automated.

Challenges
• Estimating from models themselves
– Some existing successes e.g.
• Galorath estimates from use case diagrams
• Galorath initial integration of SEER to Rational Rhapsody
• Upgrades are key activities in large long-lifetime systems of preexisting in-service components
• Producing accurate, robust and realistic system upgrade plans
remains a challenge
• Estimating is very costly and time consuming
– Development, Total Ownership, Risk
• Affordability trades are cumbersome and often limited by time &
resources

MBSE, Cost Analysis and Network
Science
•

•
•
•
As MBSE matures, relationships between cost, schedule & performance can be determined
DoD Architecture Framework (DoDAF) as an example
Systems View - treated as networks, they can be mathematically analyzed
– providing additional summary metrics that might yield valuable insight into the degree
of effort (i.e., cost) required to bring a system to fruition.
– For example: if the addition of a new subsystem can be abstracted to the addition of a
vertex to a network,
Can apply contemporary methods from network science to grow the network and estimate
its cost.
And provide an objective way to quantify and assess change
Then can turn MBSE knowledge into computational knowledge supporting
– Tradeoffs
– Change impact analysis
– related analysis early in the life cycle
Network Science
SV3 for a hypothetical system
network science: Concerned with modeling and analyzing
the connections (or edges) that exist between a network’s
components (or vertices),
MBSE Cost Use Cases
• What is the cost impact of adding more
requirements?
• How do requirements volatility and uncertainty
impact cost?
• Which are my highest value capabilities in terms
of cost-per-functionality (i.e., bang for the buck)?
• What are the cost impacts of delaying, reducing,
or eliminating certain capabilities?
• How does schedule compression influence
program cost?
Galorath Prior Work By Criticalmass: SEER IBM RSx / ROSE
Integration… Extracts Use Case Points from Models
A weighted count of actors and use cases.
•
Use Case weight is automatically classified as:
–
–
–
•
Actor weight is user-classified as:
–
–
–
•
5 – Simple : 3 or fewer steps
10 – Average : 4-7 steps
15 – Complex : more than 7 steps
1 – Simple : highly defined and elemental, such as a simple
API call
2 – Average : user-driven interaction, allowing some
freedom
3 – Complex : potentially complex interaction
“Traditionally” UUCPs are calculated for an entire
system; the IBM RSA Integration calculates them per
use case
The ‘weight’ of this actor is shared between two
use cases.
In this way, the summed UUCP count is comparable
to the traditional method of counting UUCPs
at a high level only.
Galorath Prior Work: Model Based Estimating
Estimating from artifacts
documents to help remove
the early ‘cloud of
uncertainty’ surrounding
projects.
Automatic methods
introduce less bias and
better handle the ‘iceberg’
of unrecognized system
size.
An automatic method helps
eliminate a labor-intensive
and error-prone early sizing /
estimating chore.

T his use case w ill describe the steps required to run N orton D isk D octor. T he purpose for running this is as follow s:
N orton D isk D octor diagnoses and repairs a variety of disk problem s. It perform s several tests, checking everything from the disk's partit ion table to its physical surface. If N orton D isk D octor finds a problem , it
notifies you before m aking repairs. If you check A utom atically Fix E rrors, N orton D isk D octor m akes the necessary repairs autom atically.
A fter diagnosing and repairing a disk, N orton D isk D octor displays an easy-to-read report that lists the problem s found, the problem s fixed, and the areas of the disk that checked out okay.
