Webinar 3: Model Driven Engineering (MDE) - Modeling Tool Survey
MDE is becoming increasing popular as an approach for formalizing complex systems information required by customers, system engineers, and software groups to improve lifecycle analysis, development, and verification and validation (V&V). SSCI is offering a webinar series to help members evaluate MDE practices and tools and adopt an MDE approach that aligns with their engineering and business needs. There are five webinars in the series. They are:
- Model Driven Engineering (MDE) - System-Level Modeling of Customer-Needed Capabilities
- Model Driven Engineering (MDE) - Leveraging System-Level Models
- Model Driven Engineering (MDE) - Modeling Tool Survey
- Model Driven Engineering (MDE) - Tool Chains for Simulink
- Model Driven Engineering (MDE) – Model Adoption Practices
Tools are an essential part of MDE as they formalize structural information such as architectural elements, interfaces and connections, behavioral information (e.g. functions), and other system properties. The formalization permits tools to analyze, transform, trace and simulate model information, as well as synthesize and generate other artifacts such as code, tests, documentation, and reports. This webinar, Model Driven Engineering - Modeling Tool Survey, the third in the series, describes the approach and results of the modeling tool survey conducted in 2009 and builds on the perspectives given in the first two sessions.Who Should Attend: This webinar is intended for Program and Project Leads and System and Software Engineers, including architects, developers, and integration and test personnel. It may also be of interest to Directors and Managers, Capture Managers & Team, process developers, and customers that are interested in technical details of modeling tools.
Learning Objectives: Upon completion of this webinar, attendees will be able to:
- Understand the tool capabilities classification scheme driven by standards for modeling, commercial tool capabilities, open source tool capabilities, and member company interest
- Understand how to assess tools that suit an organizations’ intended purpose such as system-level modeling, targeted domain, and transformation or generation capabilities targeted to a specific platform or programming language
- Understand life cycle coverage and tool chain integration support
Highlights: SSCI webinars are delivered via WebEx over the Internet and an audio conference call. Instructions for accessing the WebEx session and audio conference call will be mailed to all registrants approximately two days prior to the scheduled webinar.
Important: Several of the sessions in this series build on the previous one; therefore, participation in all five sessions is recommended. Please note, each session will be recorded and posted to our webinar archive page within two business days. If you miss one of the sessions, you will have an opportunity to view that session prior to the next one.
Notes: Attendance or review of material presented in webinar session 1, Model Driven Engineering (MDE): System-Level Modeling of Customer-Needed Capabilities, and session 2, Model Driven Engineering (MDE): Leveraging System-Level Models, may be beneficial.
Course Information
Unless otherwise noted in a course description, the training courses above are open for attendance by member company staff. Member company staff must be logged into their For Members Only (FMO) account to register for courses. If you do not have an FMO account, you can request one by completing the
Account Registration
form.
Courses listed on our
Training and Events Calendar
are available to SSCI members at no additional cost. Non-members may be eligible to attend some of our training courses; a registration fee may apply. Non-members should call (800) 827-4772 or contact our training coordinator at
ask-ssci@systemsandsoftware.org
to request registration.
Professional Development Units (PDU): SSCI is a Registered Education Provider with the Project Management Institute (PMI) and provides Professional Development Units (PDUs) for several of our courses and workshops. Individuals interested in PDUs for registered courses should visit the PMI website (
www.pmi.org
) for a complete listing.
For courses not registered with PMI, students have the option to self-assess the relationship of course materials against the PMBOK. Self-assessments require students to determine the number of appropriate PDU’s based on the total course contact hours that align with PMBOK topics. Students may then claim PDUs through PMI’s website. Please note that students are responsible to maintain documentation of self-assessments in the event of a future inquiry/audit from PMI.
