Application of model based system engineering to IMA development activities
Joe Yin, Ben Lawler, Haojie Jin · 2017
IMA development is highly complex due to the highly collaborative development nature required by IMA. There are benefits to airframer and system suppliers, but these benefits can only be achieved efficiently through a highly organized methodology. Model Based Systems Engineering facilitates this process by shortening development time and cost. Application of MBSE in the IMA system development activities can shorten development lifecycle duration, cost and reduce integration risks. MBSE can be used throughout the IMA system development process, including the following phases: requirements capture, architecture definition, configuration, integration and verification.
