Project Focus
• Based on white paper describing DoDAF, SysML
and AP233 standards for System-of-systems and
Systems Engineering
– Using Systems Engineering Standards In an
Architecture Framework by Ian Bailey, Eurostep, Fatma
Dandashi and Huei-Wan Ang, Mitre Corp, and Dwayne
Hardy, American Systems Corp
• Influenced by INCOSE, ISO STEP and OMG
communities

Walkthrough of Mapping
Documentation
• Document as a Web site in the style of a
programmers guide
– Audience
• Audience is software developers
• No previous knowledge of AP233 is required
• UML diagrams and XML Schemas used to explain how to write
a converter
– Approach
• Develop standalone AP233 document that is independent of
DoDAF/CADM mapping
• Develop document for each DoDAF View and “link” into the
AP233 document
• Makes the AP233 documentation reusable for a similar project
on SysML, MoDAF, etc.

Resulting Tool Interoperability
• CADM-AP233 interoperability creates a new path
into DoDAF for:
– UML/SysML tool vendors
– Non-UML tool vendors
– Other military AFs
• UK MoDAF Enterprise Reference Model
• CADM-AP233 interoperability creates a capability
to feed DoDAF data down the systems life cycle
via other STEP APs
– e.g. AP239/Product Life Cycle Support for Support
Engineering, Maintenance, Logistics, etc.

Recommended Next Steps
• Release current software and documentation as open
source
– With DoD approval, Eurostep will post results as open-source
project to which anyone can contribute
• Evaluate possibility of validating results in CADM testing
forum
• Consider expanding CADM-AP233 to cover additional views
– Suggest priority aligned with SysML to build on momentum
• SysML 1.0 release planned for June 05, consider doing a
similar project for SysML-AP233
– SysML partners have prototyping plans

Where might we go from here?
• Interoperability can be provided through an opensource set of software tools reducing barriers for
everyone
– The XML community has been very successful at this
• Ideas for the information technology
– High Level API specified as UML and delivered in
multiple programming languages (e.g. Java, C++, C#)
– Direct converters for other standard formats (e.g. XMI)
– Web services and interoperability hubs on Web
®

AP233 approach
• Standardize flexible, extensible information model in ISO
– Independent of any tool or modelling approach
• Can represent UML, IDEF and non-standard tool languages
– Extension via a “classification by external class” concept within the
information model itself
• makes AP233 suitable as a neutral data exchange standard for
Systems Engineering data
• leaves room for communities or organizations to tailor AP233 use for
specific needs
– Designed for data exchange, not for operational system or
repository Fewer semantics and rules written into the information
model
• Breaks concepts down to relatively fine level of detail to support a
variety of tools/disciplines

AP233 is modular
• AP233 is one of the new suite of STEP modular
APs
– A STEP module is a small, reusable information model
from which the larger Application Protocols are created
– So, if AP233 doesn’t quite cover something it can be
extended by incorporating or creating other small STEP
information models

AP233 Systems Engineering
• AP233 is the Systems Engineering part of the new suite of
ISO 10303 STEP Application Protocols built from modules
– Shared constructs guarantee interoperability between disciplines
such as Systems Engineering, Product Life Cycle Support and
Configuration Controlled Design
• Defines a formal, strict information model
– intended to prevent ambiguity when used for exchange between
engineering systems
• As part of STEP, AP233 links to standards with a vast scope

Conclusions
• Core DoDAF Views/CADM and AP233 can be mapped
– Provides additional path for creating CADM data for tool vendors
• SysML 0.9 out for review and alignment with AP233 is
underway
– AP233 Structure done
– AP233 Requirements done
– AP233 Behaviour still in-work
• Confirmed white paper conclusions on SysML, AP233 and
DoDAF each being useful
• Deliverables can be reused as the basis for future work
– e.g. CADM-AP233 documentation can be basis for adding SysMLAP233 structure mapping
