"Overview Next Generation Modeling Language SysML v2" with Tim Weilkiens
The talk will provide a general overview of the SysML v2. We start with some background and history of SysML v2, continue with the architecture of SysML v2 and how it differs from SysML v1, followed by the features. There is no use or fun in presenting all the elements of SysML v2, but I briefly present the features that are new compared to v1. To give you the opportunity to try SysML v2 in practice and not just study it theoretically, I present how to use the pilot implementation. Finally, we will have a look at the game-changer feature of the SysML v2 API.

Oktober 2020
On October 15th, 9-10 (CET) Jonas Hallqvist, ESEP and member of the INCOSE Competency Working Group presents:
Seminar on Systems Engineering Competency
Many organisations say that their main asset is the competence of the employees. But how can you know what competence you need? How do you know if you have the right competence? To answer that question, some form of competence definition is needed.
Structuring the systems engineering competence is necessary to be able to have a common understanding, identifying the current status and future needs and developing a roadmap to meet those needs. The simple statement “we need more systems engineers” is not enough for this purpose.
This presentation will contain a description on how systems engineering competence can be structured and assessed. The INCOSE Competency Working Group, current work regarding INCOSE Systems Engineering Competency Framework and its relationship to Professional Development Portal and the SE certification will be presented.
The INCOSE Systems Engineering Competence Framework was awarded Product of the Year 2018.
September 2020
Den 17/9 klockan 9-10 presenterar Professor Dag Bergsjö, Systems Engineering Design, Chalmers University
Seminar on Systems Engineering and Machine Learning
This seminar will present the basics of machine learning, what it is, what to expect and how machine learning can be applied to systems engineering problems and processes. The evolution of machine learning from statistics and probability analysis towards learning algorithms will be briefly touched upon as well as traditional use of machine learning to predict and prevent product and consumer behavior (i.e. self-driving cars and fraud detection).
Since 2016 the Systems Engineering Design Research Group has been involved in several projects trying to identify the potential benefits of Machine Learning and Big Data Analysis. A few of these projects will be presented as well as the current ongoing research. Especially with the focus of knowledge management and data trustworthiness in the context of Systems Engineering.
