To view the SysML model, you will require a local copy of the SysML model, along with the HTML viewer. A public copy was released in June 2016 through the TOICA consortium:
The SysML model in the zip file can be used in PolarSys/Papyrus. There is a public MoSSEC SysML Guide that details how to download, install and edit the MoSSEC SysML model. The SysML Guide is available to download through the TOICA consortium:
For those wishing to contribute to the SysML model, the MoSSEC SysML Guide details how to download, install and edit the MoSSEC SysML model. The SysML Guide is available to download through the TOICA consortium:
The latest build of the MoSSEC Business Object Model, can be accessed by requesting Guest access to the SVN. (Contact adrian.murton@airbus.com).
The latest build includes MoSSEC Descriptive Documentation, with an 'Executive' or 'Implementers' guide. These cover the same topics as the webinars, but in many areas include more details, and examples
The first step is to determine the collaboration points in your process, the information involved, and the tools that are collaborating. From this it can be determined which services and objects are needed i.e:
READ (e.g. "Get" - Client)
WRITE (e.g. "Set" - Client)
RESPOND (e.g. "Get" and "Set" i.e. Server side response)
