Course Outline
Introduction
- The System Development Life Cycle integrated with the Harmony Process (IBM/Telelogic).
- An overview of UML and SysML diagrams applied to requirements gathering, system analysis, and design within the system engineering domain.
- A framework-based methodology for requirements gathering, system analysis, and design.
Gathering Requirements and Transforming them into System Specifications
- Establishing traceability between business and system requirements using SysML requirement diagrams.
- Defining the system scope, encompassing the functions and use cases that trigger them.
- Modeling the system's life cycle to orchestrate state transitions and function triggers.
- Developing test cases using scenarios that realize Use Cases and System Functions.
- Case Study: Modeling the system scope and the usage of system functions derived from requirements.
Transforming System Specifications into Design Level Components
- Creating and refining system Block Diagrams using internal blocks.
- Detailing the communication architecture between sub-systems using Parts, Ports, and Interfaces.
- Case Study: Developing block and internal block diagrams based on system specifications, incorporating design-level decisions.
- Modeling white-box interactions at the design level.
- Case Study: Modeling interactions between blocks and internal blocks based on design-level choices.
- Mapping operations to the components (parts) of blocks.
- Elaborating Parametric Diagrams for system functions.
- Case Study: Updating Block and Internal Block Diagrams based on design-level scenarios.
Conclusion
- Reviewing the steps of requirement analysis and system specification in system engineering.
- Ensuring traceability between requirements and the resulting software.
- Conducting system integration and acceptance tests for requirements.
Notice: These interactive training-mentoring sessions utilize Requirement Engineering and Modeling tools such as Enterprise Architect (EA) to ensure strong traceability between requirements and underlying solutions. Concepts are first introduced through basic examples, followed by drafts of solutions to your specific challenges. Post-session, we can support you by reviewing and validating your solutions according to your needs.
Requirements
Professional Experience:
- A minimum of two years of hands-on experience in software development, systems engineering, business or technical analysis, or technical architecture.
Methodological Background:
- A solid grasp of software development lifecycle (SDLC) and systems engineering lifecycle concepts, such as the V-Model or Agile/Iterative delivery.
- Competence in requirements engineering, including the distinction between functional and non-functional requirements, constraints, and verification processes.
Technical & Modeling Concepts:
- Foundational knowledge of Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD) principles, including classes, instances, inheritance, composition, and interfaces.
- Basic familiarity with visual diagrams like flowcharts or introductory UML is helpful, but prior expertise in SysML is not a prerequisite.

Ms Malavika is a very good trainer. Very hard working and answering my queries well. I understand that scope for SysML and EA is very vast, she tried her best to present the training in the most suitable way. She has even spent her break time looking for answers to our queries. My respect! A great teacher!
