Week 7 Systems Engineering and Analysis Buede Chapter
Week 7 - Systems Engineering and Analysis Buede Chapter 12 – Graphical Modeling Techniques Left – Systems engineers us a lot of graphical models which look like state diagrams. If you have to predict how the pieces of a large system will interact, you need help visualizing that. This one is a “generative model for how to create generative models. ” 1
Wasson also talks about modeling • Mostly scattered by topic – what you are modeling. • E. g. , Sec 15. 2 – System behavioral response model • Ch 17 – Use Cases & UML • Ch 20 – Modeling system and support operations • Ch 51 – System modeling and simulation 2
Data, Process, and Behavior Models • Data Models – relationships among input and outputs. • Process Models – define functional decomposition of the system function and flow of inputs and outputs for those functions. • Behavior Models – define the control, activation, and termination of of system functions needed to meet performance requirements. 3
Modeling Approaches & Methods Table 12. 1 • Data Modeling • Process Modeling • Behavior Modeling • Object-oriented Modeling – Entity-relationship diagrams (ERDs) – Higraphs – Data flow diagrams (DFDs) – IDEF 0 – N 2 charts – – – Function flow block diagrams (FFBDs) Behavior diagrams (BDs) State-transition diagrams (STDs) Statecharts Control flow diagrams (CFDs) Petri nets (PNs) – Object modeling technique (OMT) – Real-time object-oriented modeling (ROOM) 4

Finite State Machines • Finite state machines: discrete valued inputs, outputs and internal items – Sequential: past inputs impact current outputs (e. g. , state-transition diagram) – Combinational: current outputs characterized only current inputs • Continuous machines: continuous and discrete inputs, outputs and internal items Figure 12. 16 13

Object-oriented Modeling – our favorite in software? • Object Modeling Technique (OMT) – Object model (ERD) – Dynamic model (STD & nested state diagrams) – Functional model (DFD) • Real-time Object-oriented Modeling (ROOM) – Objects = Actors – Actors communicate via messages – ROOMcharts • Combine functional and behavioral models • Generalization of Statecharts • Unified Modeling Language (UML) (Sys. ML) 21
