We have posted a new 6-minute video, “Syndeia: Digital Thread Platform for Model-Based Engineering”, to our home page. While primarily intended for newcomers to Syndeia, it may also help those already familiar with the platform to appreciate how the thinking behind it has changed. First, we are calling Syndeia a “Digital Thread Platform”. While interoperability,

A practical Digital Thread capability has two aspects, to build and maintain the network of connections that define a system and to analyze and document that network to provide the project team members with the information they need. In this blog series, we will focus on that second aspect. Syndeia, the MBSE integration platform from

We use Syndeia, the interoperability platform from

In our previous posts in this series, we began the construction of a Digital Thread for integrated model-based mission engineering with our UAF model of IED removal. The power of this approach becomes even more evident as we bring in relations to other models in our SysML, requirements and issue tracking tools. We begin with

The UAF model, implemented here in Cameo Enterprise Architect, provides several standardized views of the mission architecture (Figure 1), starting with Strategic Structure, dropping down to Operational Structure, and finally dropping down to Services Processes.  All these relationships fall within the Cameo tool, but extending our Digital Thread to a wider range of tools requires

Consider how we can take some of the tools being developed for model-based systems engineering and ask how they could apply at the mission or enterprise architecture level. Let’s start with the idea of Digital Thread. From a conceptual perspective, it is a complete specification of a system, or mission, created from all the specialized
