One of the biggest challenges in designing complex systems is to design and specify the components in such a way that they contribute to the overall functionality of the system. Specialization, cost efficiency, or other reasons require that these components be co-developed, verified, and delivered by various suppliers, and then integrated, verified, and validated by the integrator. This makes the approaches of systems engineering crucial for integrators (OEMs). As the complexity of the systems to be managed increases, so does the complexity of designing, maintaining, and further developing these approaches. The methods of model-based systems engineering (MBSE) have already proven their relevance at the system level today. Companies cannot ensure the required quality of their systems without a model-based approach. The transition from document-based to model-based operational architectures presents a comparable challenge. SEREA is listed to be designated as an INCOSE technical product, offering a model-based reference enterprise architecture based on the uified architecture framework (UAF). With SEREA as a basis, a customized enterprise architecture can be created. Since SEREA is based on ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288, it is particularly suitable for companies dealing with the life cycle management of complex systems. This paper describes how SEREA has been developed and how shall be tailored.

设计复杂系统的最大挑战之一是设计和指定组件,使其对系统的整体功能有所贡献。专业化、成本效率或其他原因要求这些组件由不同的供应商共同开发、验证和交付,然后由集成商集成、验证和验证。这使得系统工程的方法对集成商(oem)至关重要。随着要管理的系统的复杂性增加,设计、维护和进一步开发这些方法的复杂性也在增加。基于模型的系统工程(MBSE)方法已经证明了它们在当今系统级的相关性。如果没有基于模型的方法,公司就无法确保其系统所需的质量。从基于文档的操作体系结构到基于模型的操作体系结构的转换也带来了类似的挑战。SEREA被指定为INCOSE技术产品,提供基于统一体系结构框架(UAF)的基于模型的参考企业体系结构。以SEREA为基础,可以创建定制的企业体系结构。由于SEREA基于ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288,因此它特别适合处理复杂系统生命周期管理的公司。本文描述了SEREA是如何发展的,以及如何进行调整。

From Fragmentation to Federation: A Proposed Strategy for Advancing Digital Engineering Standards Development 从碎片化到联邦化:推进数字工程标准发展的建议策略

The future of systems engineering depends on solving a pressing challenge: the fragmentation of data and models across engineering tools, enterprise systems, and lifecycle processes. While existing standards from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the Object Management Group (OMG), and other standard development organizations (SDOs) address specific domains and data exchange formats, no comprehensive framework exists to guide digital engineering (DE) across the full ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288 system lifecycle process—from technical and management processes to enabling and agreement activities. This disconnect limits organizations' ability to integrate, scale, and deliver consistent value across increasingly complex ecosystems.

This article examines the current gaps in interoperability standardization efforts and outlines opportunities for the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) to shape the future of digital transformation. It introduces the INCOSE agile systems engineering life cycle management (ASELCM) pattern as a foundation for aligning lifecycle processes with model-based technical exchanges through a federated digital thread. The authors call for INCOSE to adopt a strategic standardization role—working with other SDOs to define interoperability use cases, align lifecycle models, and model-based systems engineering (MBSE) standards, and develop a shared reference framework for interoperability. This collaboration is essential for enabling seamless, cross-enterprise interoperability—and for empowering organizations to realize the speed, scale, and economic advantage promised by digital transformation.

系统工程的未来依赖于解决一个紧迫的挑战:跨工程工具、企业系统和生命周期过程的数据和模型的碎片。虽然来自国际标准化组织(ISO)、对象管理组织(OMG)和其他标准开发组织(sdo)的现有标准针对特定领域和数据交换格式,但是没有一个全面的框架来指导数字工程(DE)跨越整个ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288系统生命周期过程——从技术和管理过程到启用和协议活动。这种脱节限制了组织在日益复杂的生态系统中集成、扩展和交付一致价值的能力。本文考察了互操作性标准化工作中的当前差距,并概述了国际系统工程委员会(INCOSE)塑造数字化转型未来的机会。它引入了INCOSE敏捷系统工程生命周期管理(ASELCM)模式,作为通过联邦数字线程将生命周期过程与基于模型的技术交换结合起来的基础。作者呼吁INCOSE采用一种战略性的标准化角色——与其他sdo一起定义互操作性用例、调整生命周期模型和基于模型的系统工程(MBSE)标准,并为互操作性开发一个共享的参考框架。这种协作对于实现无缝的跨企业互操作性至关重要,并且对于使组织能够实现数字化转型所承诺的速度、规模和经济优势至关重要。

Organizations are embedding digital engineering and model-based engineering into their systems engineering lifecycles to achieve cost savings, higher product quality, and earlier delivery. From a business perspective, understanding the success of their digital transformation investment, has been lacking. To address this requested need, government, university, and industry experts have collaborated with the INCOSE Measurement Working Group to enhance the issuance of the initial Digital Engineering Measurement Framework (v1.1) to include measures that track, and report results related to digital engineering business operations and environmental benefits. This article describes the approach used to mature the guidance document, the benefits of the new measures, and recommendations for the sequential release.

In recent years, many organizations have embraced digital engineering (DE) as a strategy for enhancing integration and interoperability across the system lifecycle. However, research into the development of DE practices has shown that a lack of consensus on terminology can hinder progress. Common terms such as ‘digital thread’, ‘digital twin’, and ‘authoritative source of truth’ are defined inconsistently across domains and organizations, creating friction in digital information exchange. Automated, efficient information exchange requires a precise lexicon to facilitate understanding for humans and machines. The INCOSE Digital Engineering Information Exchange (DEIX) Working Group is working to address this challenge by developing a formal ontology of DE concepts. This article addresses some of the key terminology challenges facing DE practitioners and describes how a machine-readable ontology can help to create a shared understanding of DE and enable more effective implementation of DE practices.

近年来,许多组织已经将数字工程(DE)作为一种策略,用于增强整个系统生命周期的集成和互操作性。然而,对DE实践发展的研究表明,对术语缺乏共识可能会阻碍进展。诸如“数字线”、“数字孪生”和“权威真相来源”等常见术语在不同领域和组织中的定义不一致,这在数字信息交换中造成了摩擦。自动化、高效的信息交换需要精确的词汇来促进人类和机器的理解。INCOSE数字工程信息交换(DEIX)工作组正致力于通过开发DE概念的正式本体来解决这一挑战。本文解决了DE实践者面临的一些关键术语挑战,并描述了机器可读本体如何帮助创建对DE的共享理解,并支持更有效地实现DE实践。

Systemic Elegance: Clarifying Complexity and Emergence for Engineering Practice 系统优雅:澄清工程实践的复杂性和突发性

In systems engineering, elegance is often associated with simplicity and control, but this risks ignoring the deeper systemic nature of elegance as coherence between complexity and purpose. This article reframes elegance not as minimalism, but as the systemic sufficiency of structure, behavior, and context. Drawing from systems science foundations and the triad of fit–form–function, we argue that true systemic elegance arises when relational complexity is harnessed, not suppressed, to yield emergent coherence across levels. Elegant systems are those that integrate complexity without introducing unnecessary complication; they achieve just enough richness to engage with the variety of their environment, while avoiding overdesign. This balance is not accidental; it results from rigorous architecting and purposeful design. Using examples and distinctions, this article offers a framework for systems engineers to recognize, cultivate, and evaluate elegance as a dynamic outcome of systemic coherence.

在系统工程中,优雅通常与简单性和控制联系在一起,但是这可能会忽略优雅作为复杂性和目的之间的一致性的更深层次的系统本质。本文将优雅重新定义为结构、行为和环境的系统充分性,而不是极简主义。从系统科学基础和拟合-形式-功能三位一体出发,我们认为,当关系复杂性被利用,而不是被抑制,以产生跨层次的涌现一致性时,真正的系统优雅就会出现。优雅的系统是那些整合了复杂性而不引入不必要的复杂性的系统;他们在避免过度设计的同时,也实现了与环境的多样性相结合的丰富性。这种平衡并非偶然;它源于严谨的架构和有目的的设计。通过使用实例和区别,本文为系统工程师提供了一个框架,以识别、培养和评估作为系统一致性动态结果的优雅。

We have entered an era of rapid change and increasing uncertainty. The biggest mistake we can make as systems engineers is ignoring this change. The term “uncertainty” is deeply connected to complexity for many communities, including INCOSE's Complex Systems Working Group (CSWG). As uncertainty or complexity increases, our experience, and indeed logic, suggests that the practices and techniques developed for a world of sufficient certainty are no longer enough, no matter how gifted the engineer. At this point, it is essential to change our mindset from “I know enough” to “I know I am wrong about something”. This mindset shift triggers a desire and need for continuous learning, new practices and techniques which embrace different viewpoints, learning through failure, and results in flexible and adaptable systems. The work of the CSWG, described in the article, is to identify and create suitable practices for the practitioner systems engineer in this new, uncertain, and complex age. We are aiming to “burst the bubble of complexity” and enable engineers to deal effectively with uncertainty and complexity. But the pace of change is fast, the complexity landscape is vast, and the tradecraft still emerging. Hence, the only way to address this complexity challenge sufficiently is to recruit communities of experts with diverse views who can work collaboratively towards these common aims.

我们已经进入了一个快速变化和不确定性增加的时代。作为系统工程师,我们可能犯的最大错误就是忽视这种变化。术语“不确定性”与许多社区的复杂性密切相关,包括INCOSE的复杂系统工作组(CSWG)。随着不确定性或复杂性的增加,我们的经验,实际上是逻辑,表明,为一个足够确定性的世界开发的实践和技术已经不够用了,无论工程师多么有天赋。在这一点上,有必要改变我们的心态,从“我知道足够多”到“我知道我错了”。这种心态的转变引发了对持续学习的渴望和需求,包括不同观点的新实践和技术,从失败中学习,并产生灵活和适应性强的系统。本文中描述的CSWG的工作是在这个新的、不确定的、复杂的时代为系统工程师识别和创建合适的实践。我们的目标是“打破复杂性的泡沫”,使工程师能够有效地处理不确定性和复杂性。但是,变化的步伐很快,复杂的前景广阔,而情报技术仍在兴起。因此,充分解决这种复杂性挑战的唯一方法是招募具有不同观点的专家社区,他们可以为这些共同目标而合作。
