Annotation

This survey report provides a cursory description of some of the leading model-based systems engineering (MBSE) methodologies used in industry today. This report presents an overview of various processes, methods, and tools used to support the discipline of systems engineering in a model-driven context. As a result, this report introduces various candidate MBSE methodologies that are commercially available for SE development.

This has been a widely accepted and referenced INCOSE document within the systems modeling community and is useful for giving context to system modeling.
