Toward a Framework for Modeling Space Systems Architectures

In this paper we will describe this extended RASDS/RAMSS methodology, the set of viewpoints that we have derived, and describe their relationship to RM-ODP. While this methodology may be directly used in a variety of document driven ways to describe space system architecture, the real power of it will come when there are tools available that will support full description of system architectures that can be captured electronically in a way that permits their analysis, verification, and transformation.

NASA NTRS2006

Towards a Framework for Modeling Space Systems Architectures

Topics covered include: 1) Statement of the problem: a) Space system architecture is complex; b) Existing terrestrial approaches must be adapted for space; c) Need a common architecture methodology and information model; d) Need appropriate set of viewpoints. 2) Requirements on a space systems model. 3) Model Based Engineering and Design (MBED) project: a) Evaluated different methods; b) Adapted and utilized RASDS & RM-ODP; c) Identified useful set of viewpoints; d) Did actual model exchanges among selected subset of tools. 4) Lessons learned & future vision.
