The evolution of MBSE
One key factor that must be considered when implementing MBSE into an organization is the maturity of the MBSE activities, which may be addressed by looking at the evolution of MBSE.
The evolution of MBSE may be thought of as ranging from a document-based approach to systems engineering, all the way to a full model-based approach to systems engineering. This is not a simple transition, however, and there are five conceptual stages that must be considered, as shown in the following diagram (Holt & Perry 2020):
Figure 2.10 – The evolution of MBSE (Holt & Perry 2020)
The diagram in Figure 2.10 shows the evolution of MBSE by identifying five key stages that help to understand how MBSE can be implemented and deployed into an organization. Each stage will be described by discussing the following criteria:
- Outcomes: In Chapter 1, Introduction to System Engineering, implementation of MBSE was covered very briefly by discussing...
