Role Model Of Model-Based Systems Engineering Application

The transition to model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is essential to meet the demands of increasing system complexity, productivity, quality and shorter design cycles. Necessary perspectives, associated roles and competencies for the application of MB SE are not sufficiently defined. The paper at hand presents a role model for the practical application of MBSE based on three major steps: (1) identification, (2) categorization and (3) association of stakeholders, which implement and apply MB SE within an enterprise. The use of the role model is demonstrated and evaluated in a test case based on personas within a fictional scenario which illustrates the implementation of MB SE. The roles, which are adapted to today's conditions, serve as a practical guide comprising all basic conditions that have to be considered when applying MB SE. Practitioners can easily tailor the illustrated results to their own use case.
