MODEL BASED APPROACHES FOR SYSTEMS IMPLEMENTING MODULAR OPEN SYSTEM APPROACH (MOSA)

by Robert Peters; Brooke McDonald; Robin Mikol; Macam Dattathreya

Abstract

In the continued endeavor to abstract higher levels of implementation and generalize core features, the government is requiring the use of a Modular Open System Approach (MOSA) [I] to architectures that have a common set of services while conforming to portable interfaces. This paper discusses how to model such restrictions in SysML, including the why, how, and downstream effects.
