Abstract:
Model-based Systems Engineering can be employed
beyond management of the technical architecture development
of a system to also manage the programmatics associated with
Systems Engineering activities of a project. On NASA’s
Asteroid Redirect Robotic Mission, MBSE has been successfully
employed to manage, generate, and interact with the
documentation-based deliverables associated with System
Engineering activities. This has been involved in defining and
tracking project document, milestone, and personnel metadata
via the same modeling framework used for the technical
architecture management. Additionally, it has focused on
improving overall user experiences through linkage of
documentation to technical content in the system model,
automation of manually intensive tasks, and others stakeholderoriented
features.
