SysML to ArchiMate
Every engineering element will be mapped to an element in ArchiMate, so it sits beside everything else you model.
- Blocks and parts will become the nodes, devices, equipment and system software that run your business.
- Requirements will become ArchiMate requirements, linked to the elements that satisfy them.
- Interfaces and ports will become the interfaces your applications and technology use to talk to each other.
- Actors and use cases will become the business actors and services that depend on the system.
Where SysML has no equivalent, ArchiMate will be extended through its own specialisation mechanism, so nothing is dropped. Every element in the enterprise model will name the SysML element it came from, so an auditor can follow a record back to its source.
If you already keep an ArchiMate model, you can import it today.
