Systems Modeling Training in Christchurch

This training course will explain how to use SysML, the modelling language for systems engineering. You will discover in particular block diagrams for the structural modelling of complex systems. You will deepen your understanding of sequence diagrams, state machine diagrams, and activity diagrams for dynamic modelling. You will also learn how to use SysML-specific diagrams such as the requirements diagram and the parametric diagram, as well as the concept of allocation. We will also emphasise the need to define a modelling approach tailored to the company's context and the type of system under study. Practical application will be carried out using the NoMagic Cameo Systems Modeler (MagicDraw) modelling tool.

Audience:

Systems engineers, business analysts, and architects who need to model complex systems involving both hardware and software.

Teaching Method:

Theoretical presentation illustrated with examples
50% practical work using Cameo Systems Modeler on a case study throughout the training.

Domain Driven Design (DDD) is an approach for managing complex behaviours when developing software.

This Introduction to Enterprise Architect training course is designed for all individuals who wish to use Sparx Systems’ UML modelling tool, Enterprise Architect, for their modelling activities yet are unfamiliar with the features, functions and use of Enterprise Architect.

Through a blend of lectures, demonstrations, and interactive workshops, this course illustrates the foundational principles for developing and maintaining an Enterprise Architecture (EA) using the Unified Architecture Framework (UAF) version 1.2.

The OCSMP Model Builder – Fundamental examination assesses the knowledge and skills needed to construct a basic SysML model of a system. The exam covers model concepts and organisation, capturing and managing basic requirements, structure and behaviour models, parametric models, allocation relationships, and the use of stereotypes. With the knowledge and skills covered at this level, along with familiarity with a suitable SysML modelling tool, an OCSMP Model Builder – Fundamental Certification holder should be a productive contributor to modelling tasks carried out by a Systems Engineering team using a model-based systems engineering approach with SysML. The OCSMP Model Builder – Fundamental Certification is a prerequisite for the two higher levels of the programme and requires the OCSMP Model User Certification as its own prerequisite.

This examination (as well as others in the OCSMP series) tests your ability to apply the knowledge and skills outlined here within the context of a system model. As you study, look beyond each individual diagram to understand how the aspects it models can influence or affect other aspects of the system represented in different diagram types.

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

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 analyse system architecture.

This hands-on training will show you how to use the SysML modelling language effectively. You will discover, in particular, how to use block diagrams for the structural modelling of complex systems. You will deepen your understanding of sequence diagrams, state diagrams and activity diagrams for dynamic modelling. You will also learn to use specific SysML diagrams, such as the requirements diagram and the parametric diagram, as well as the key concept of allocation. We will also focus on the need to define a modelling approach that is adapted to the company's context and the type of system under study. Finally, we will review the current state of the art in SysML modelling tools.

Audience:

Project managers, architects and systems engineers who need to model complex systems involving both software and hardware

Teaching Method:

• Theoretical presentation with examples
• Paper-based case study (trainer demonstration of a SysML tool)

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

The workshop covers problem analysis, system design and documentation using UML and Enterprise Architect by Sparx Systems. During the training, participants will explore advanced capabilities of the tool (such as MDA, profiles, XMI) and learn best practices that can significantly simplify and accelerate the modelling process.

As the training focuses on the Enterprise Architect tool, participants are expected to already have a working knowledge of UML modelling. For those who wish to learn UML from the ground up, we offer dedicated UML modelling training.

Training method

10% lecture, 90% workshop

This course is designed for business analysts, managers, team leads and process owners to equip them with the necessary competencies to create use case diagrams and use case scenarios. These serve as effective tools for eliciting, analysing, documenting and communicating functional requirements. Participants will gain hands-on experience in creating use cases using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), learning how to graphically represent interactions between use cases and actors.
