We seek contributions that capture lessons learned from practical applications of MBSE in space mission design and development:
ID | Specific workshop objectives at operational level |
O-1 | Successful applications with emphasis on reporting perceived return-on-investment |
O-2 | Limitations of current MBSE approaches and ways to circumvent or resolve these (e.g. through customization of processes and tools) |
O-3 | Sustaining MBSE after first adoption (e.g. long term maintenance and model evolution, application / re-use in the next project, identified non-technical and governance aspects [see also tactical and strategic level]) |
O-4 | Leveraging MBSE results to improve the definition and development of other downstream applications and use cases (e.g. simulation, validation and verification, operations) |
O-5 |
Experience reports on sharing models and data (“doing MBSE together”)
|
Furthermore, we seek contributions that discuss the organizational implementation of the digitalization of engineering processes:
ID | Specific workshop objectives at tactical level |
T-1 | Discuss enablers and hurdles to introduce MBSE in industrial practice also considering non-technical aspects (e.g. change and engineering management, organizational embedding, infrastructure and security, workforce training/evolution) |
T-2 | Discuss the next “big challenge” to address to improve digital continuity; what is needed to achieve a truly end-to-end digital workflow |
T-3 | Showcase novel approaches to MBSE that have the potential to significantly improve the state-of-practice in space mission design and development; both innovative approaches from industry and academia are welcomed, but with a clear focus on application potential at scale |
T-4 | Discuss the role of existing, evolving and emerging standards to address interoperability and semantic modelling to support digital continuity |
Last but not least, we intend to address business goals and identify conditions needed to achieve success:
ID | Specific workshop objectives at strategic level |
S-1 | The vision for (model based) systems and software engineering in the next decade; opportunities and challenges, risks and rewards |
S-2 | Current and future R&D programmes with focus on MBSE, digital spacecraft, big data, machine learning and artificial intelligence |
S-3 | Collaboration in an international, competitive and heterogeneous market place (e.g. evolution and adoption of standards and tools, legal and contractual aspects, data governance) |
S-4 | Lessons learned from other application domains dealing with complex system design (e.g. aeronautics, automotive, railway etc.) with focus on potential of knowledge transfer to the space domain |
