==== An Ontology for State Analysis: Formalizing the Mapping to SysML ====

=== Overview ===

The referenced paper below provides:

  * A methodology for architecting, designing and documenting complex control systems

  * This methodology utilizes the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) as a modeling and documentation language

  * Provides ontological definitions of the concepts and relations in State Analysis

  * Provides a mapping of State Analysis into a practical extension of SysML

  * Includes following activities:
    * Define the Context
    * Creating State Effects Diagram as ibd
    * Creating State Effects Models as Parametrics
    * Goal Elaborations with use cases
    * Architectural Diagrams
  * Tool vendor independent methodology
