Weilkiens Tim. Variant Modeling with SysML

MBSE4U, 2016. — 91 p. — ISBN: 978-3-9817875-4-2.SysML does not provide explicit built-in language constructs to model variants. Nevertheless, SysML is useful to create a model for variants. The VAMOS method presented in the book Variant Modeling with SysML is one option for how to model variants with SysML. It uses the profile mechanism of SysML to extend the language with a concept for variant modeling. The concepts are core, variation point, variation, variant, variant constraint, and variant configuration. The book shows how to apply the concepts with standard SysML modeling tools.This book gives a brief overview of the version history of the variant modeling approach in SysML.
More analysis of other variant modeling approaches.
Provide more support for the profile for common SysML modeling tools.
Explicit description of the alignment with other variant modeling approaches.
Provide a guideline and template for report generation.
