UPDMRTF — Integrate SysML Requirements and Constraints

Constraints and Parametric Blocks in the SysML notation have proven their value in enabling the use of models as parameters for discipline-specific analysis and simulation. Likewise, SysML Requirements have proven their usability for annotating models with Requirements and with Requirements Traceabilities (such as Satisfaction, Derivation, etc.)

The user community (including MITRE, Raytheon, Intercax, and professional services architects such as No Magic staff) requests that UPDM integrate the Requirements, Constraints, and Parametric Blocks into UPDM. Then, Enterprise Architects using UPDM can perform their systems and econometric analyses and their requirements engineering with their UPDM models that they can perform today in SysML modeling.

(How and Where such integration is accomplished is a topic worthy of deliberation but is beyond the scope of a customer-centric requirement request.)
