Objective:

To assist Analysts and Designers within the Systems Engineering domain in understanding how to efficiently gather requirements and proceed with embedded software design implementation, grounded in system specifications utilising UML 2 and SysML.

This three-day training is designed to support system analysts in articulating their needs effectively and enabling designers to develop appropriate system architectures based on those needs.

The resulting system architecture ensures a high degree of agility for embedded system software when facing changes, as it enables coherent traceability of business rules encapsulated within system functions and links them to usage choices (use cases) of end-users down to the software implementation level.

This course is available in two variants, designed to offer a hands-on understanding of how systems can be modelled using the latest version of the OMG Systems Modelling Language (SysML) specification. The notation and core semantics of SysML are explained in a manner that enables learners to apply their knowledge to any appropriate system modelling method or tool.

In this instructor-led live training Coimbra (online or onsite), participants will learn how to use SysML as implemented in Enterprise Architect (EA) to carry out system requirements analysis and modeling.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand and apply SysML to Systems Engineering projects, using a Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) approach.
• Identify system requirements based on use case models.
• Design and analyze system architecture.

As distributed systems become increasingly complex, the challenge has shifted from the intricacies of a single application to the complexity inherent in the architecture of interconnected systems. This course explores the dynamic relationship between Software Architecture and Technical Enterprise Architecture. These two domains are closely linked, yet this connection is often not fully articulated. For instance, decomposing a complex monolithic application into two distinct systems that communicate via web services necessitates significant changes to both the individual systems and the architectural interactions between them.

Throughout this course, we will examine the trade-offs involved, along with prevalent patterns and solutions for managing complex systems and the communication channels within and between them.

This course is tailored for analysts, designers, developers, testers, and project managers.

The workshop covers problem analysis, design, and system documentation using UML and Sparx Systems' Enterprise Architect. The training highlights the program's advanced capabilities (such as MDA, profiles, and XMI) alongside best practices that can significantly streamline and accelerate the modeling process.

As the training concentrates on the Enterprise Architect tool, participants are expected to already possess UML modeling skills. For those wishing to learn modeling fundamentals, we offer dedicated UML training courses.
