Objective:

Empowering Analysts and Designers in the System Engineering field to master the efficient collection of requirements and the subsequent implementation of embedded software designs, grounded in system specifications through UML 2 and SysML.

This three-day training program is designed to assist system analysts in articulating their requirements effectively and enabling designers to develop suitable architectural designs based on these needs.

The resulting system architecture enhances the agility of embedded software, ensuring robust traceability between business rules embedded in system functions and end-user usage choices (use cases) down to the software implementation level.

This course is available in two formats, designed to deliver a hands-on understanding of how systems can be modelled using the latest iteration of the OMG's Systems Modelling Language (SysML) specification. The notation and underlying semantics of SysML are explained in a manner that enables students to apply their learning to any appropriate system modelling methodology or tool.

In this instructor-led, live training in Sofia (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 grow increasingly complex, the primary challenge has shifted from the intricacy of individual systems to the complexity of their collective architecture. This course explores the interplay between Software Architecture and Technical Enterprise Architecture. Although these two domains are deeply interconnected, the nature of their relationship is not always clearly defined. For instance, decomposing a complex monolithic application into two separate systems that communicate via web services necessitates significant adjustments to both the new systems and the architectural interface between them.

The course will examine the trade-offs involved, as well as current best practices and solutions for managing complexity and facilitating communication within and between disparate systems.

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

The workshop focuses on problem analysis, system design, and documentation using UML and Sparx Systems' Enterprise Architect. During the training, participants will explore advanced features of the tool (such as MDA, profiles, and XMI) alongside best practices designed to significantly simplify and accelerate the modeling process.

Since the training centers on the Enterprise Architect tool, it is assumed that participants already possess knowledge of UML modeling. For those wishing to learn modeling from scratch, we offer dedicated UML training.
