Abstract

The use of system models within model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is essential for improved communication or system documentation. Previous publications have investi- gated further reuse of these system models, for example, transforming them directly into discipline-specific models for reuse. The authors refer to this as the term “Utilization” of system models. It aims the compensation of modelling efforts and a further integration of linked models within MBSE. Motivated by a lack of common understanding of this term, a systematic literature review of the state of the art is presented. With this systematic overview, a definition and classification system for different use cases and system life cycle stages are created. These are key results to support engineers and researchers in adopting existing or discovering new utilization approaches. This supports the mission of advanced systems engineering and aims the identification of new research directions coming along with SysML v2 and the advanced systems engineering methods.
