Abstract
The DoN is undergoing a digital transformation that is set to address the needs of sustaining fleet assets for extended periods of time, while maintaining a superior lethality. Within the engineering domain, the DoN is starting to identify model-based systems engineering (MBSE) tools and concepts to streamline processes and enhance capability. The capstone looked to lay the foundation for a conceptual system model development process that utilizes SysML and OOSEM to produce system model data and artifacts derived from a single scenario. During the digital transformation, communication of system model data to stakeholders was identified as a need, and a SysML tool was used to generate model-based documentation from a formatted Microsoft Word document. With incoming digital product support capabilities from the MBPS program, communication from a MBSE environment is critical and requires XML-formatted data. Using the information collected in the completion of the scenario, it was discovered that SysML elements will lose their SE-specific stereotypes when converted directly into XML format. To counter this, the capstone developed UML instances derived from the S3000L UML class-based data model to be converted into XML format. The findings and developments of this capstone support the ability for organizations to standardize the way system modeling data is developed, collected, and communicated to other systems external to the engineering domain.
