SysML is too complex for you? The model elements do not fit exactly to your approach? How do you model mechanical parts, system hierarchies or requirements with more attributes than ID and text?

With this 4-day training we put you in a position to get started with a reduced SysML adapted to your concrete needs and the modeling tool IBM Rhapsody adapted to it.

With the help of a concept model, you will first determine the concepts and development artifacts that you need in your development process. Subsequently, you will derive a set of SysML model elements from the general SysML that fits this concept model. In addition to the exclusion of model elements, existing model elements must also be adapted in order to be able to represent your engineering concepts. For this purpose you will learn the standardized extension mechanism of profiles and stereotypes of SysML.

Last but not least, we will show you how to implement your own „SysML light“ in the IBM Rhapsody modeling tool. For this purpose, an expert from Evocean will show you how to customize the modeling tool according to your conceptual model and your specific SysML language set. In doing so, new language elements, specially compiled toolboxes and diagram types as well as model templates for IBM Rhapsody can be created. In addition, you will also receive valuable tips and assistance for the practical use of the tool in your project.

Quality assurance through module and regression tests. If you are planning to introduce a test automation solution in your company, then it is definitely worth considering the IBM Rhapsody TestConductor.

IBM  Testconductor Add-on is the add-on package that allows you to extend model-based software or system development with model-based testing. The OMG-defined Testing Profile of UML provides the modelling tools necessary for testing. 

Creation of the test architecture and execution of the tests in the model are automated as far as possible; test cases are defined by sequence diagrams, state machines or flowcharts. Tests can run individually or as a group, manually or automatically. Dependencies between test results and test requirements simplify the proof of test coverage of the model.

Within three days you will get to know the Harmony workflow for Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and gain practical experience with IBM Rhapsody.

The IBM Harmony Systems Engineering workflow includes best practices for creating models in the requirements analysis, functional analysis, design synthesis and handover phases.  Using the Rhapsody Systems Engineering Toolkit, you will be guided through the systems engineering workflow with practical examples and create your own system model. The automation features of the Systems Engineering Toolkit, which are included in Rhapsody, drastically help you to reduce the time required to create and maintain complex models and the associated formal systematic approach ensures a robust design.

This popular IBM Rhapsody Training offers a special, very effective introduction into the development with UML and IBM-Rhapsody®: From the beginning on, the popular Raspberry Pi is used as target hardware. The concepts are implemented in a practical oriented way directly on host computer and on the target board. Therefore, the participants will learn hands-on how to work with UML and Rhapsody.
