  1. March 1, 2013 MBSE Meeting MBSE Usability Group Bjorn Cole Bjorn.Cole@jpl.nasa.gov

  2. MBSE Usability Group – Collaboration Process Identify & prioritize modeling use cases Study exemplars for each use case Emphasize full-scale industrial applications Span a wide range of usage patterns Example: Libraries use case exemplars from: Rockwell Collins, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Ford Motor Company, BAE Systems, Honeywell Synthesize and publish exemplars : Ex: “Emerging Usability Patterns in the Application of Modeling Libraries” (Submitted to 2013 INCOSE International Symposium) Ex: Making assertions based upon modeling (Pending in 2013) Create a document that offers guidance on usability issues Ex: Developing and Managing Modeling Libraries (Pending in 2013) Customized Propulsion Schematic from JPL

  3. Recommendations:The User Experience • Understand libraries as a crucial corporate asset. • Make exemplars of correct usage available in templates to streamline training and work (Put the best at people’s fingertips.) • Best Practices / Process examples • Example models • Generic • Domain-Specific • Best of class algorithms • Design the user experience. • Understand your users. (Most users will not be modeling geeks!) • Keep it simple • Support flow • Make it “write once” for the modeler • Create an immersive environment for users • Persistent real time environment for training and model building As if it was a multi-player game (Because it is!)

  4. Recommendations:Supporting Collaboration • Immersive Multi-Modeler Environment • Shared awareness • Supporting spiral of meaning • Dialog about applying modeling during projects • Dialog about library objects • New insights into library components • Emerging architectural & design patterns • Dialog happens inside the modeling environment

  5. Usability Group Plan for 2013 • Library Guide: Developing and Managing Libraries • Use Case: Supporting Decisions with Assertions based upon MBSE models • On the side: Stand up a user forum

  6. The Usability Guide Addressing MBSE Adoption with Model Templates Vehicle Model Architecture at Ford Motor Company Domain-Specific Customization at JPL SoS Modeling Framework at Honeywell Tailoring a Library Element at Rockwell Collins

  7. Questions for the Group • What is our audience? • Sounds like model architects / librarians is one part of this • “Tool vendors” is a little vague – what parts of the tools? • How deep versus how wide? • Work to build an outline collaboratively up to the next meeting • What are people’s areas of interest? • Not just usability, but REusability • Libraries -> Assertions (via analysis) • Connecting to specialized tools • How to control / mark level of fidelity or assumptions? • Estimates of run time during use? • How to add fidelity as needed for a given circumstance? • Decision-making knowledge: e.g., preferred vendors, costs, familiarity • How can people find the library pieces? Central store at Rockwell? • Atego Asset Library? Subversion store? • Moving library assets across modeling tools • How / when do we infuse discipline of interface design?

  8. Multi-Disciplinary Integration Hydraulic Fluid:SAE 1340 not-compliant Power Rating:18 Amps Thermal/Heat Dissipation: 780° Ergonomic/Pedal Feedback: 34 ERGS Hydraulic Pressure: 350 PSI Minimum Turn Radius: 24 ft. Dry Pavement Braking Distance at 60 MPH : 110 ft. 90 ft Sensor MTBF:3000 hrs Source: INCOSE MBSE Initiative-Mark Sampson Automatic Cruise Control <FAULT> Minimum Turn Radius: 24 ft. Dry Pavement Braking Distance at 60 MPH : 110 ft. 8

  9. Creating Queries Find all US Capitals from DBPedia (semantic capture of Wikipedia):

  10. Questions for the Group • Are there particular questions people have for these system models? • Any exemplars out there already? • Is there interest in doing this in parallel with the guide or should we work in series? • Assertions from models has high experience base in the analytical space; less so in SysML / UML • Libraries tie nicely into this as elements can be deployed for analysis • Insights from libraries may inform the limits / approach to making assertions • Can we separate tools from the larger question of making assertions?

  11. Final Discussion • Who would like to be the focus of discussion for next time? • Refine outline for the library guide • Outline can help with bringing in new members • Collect ideas for assertion exemplars / needs • How would you like to see the work of this group impact the larger MBSE community? • Is anyone interested in leading the charge on either of the two topics identified at the IW?
