-The term “pattern” appears repeatedly in the history of design, such as civil architecture[15], software design[16], and systems engineering[17]. Those “patterns” represent regularities that repeat, modulo some variable aspects, across different instances in space and time. However, in this project when we refer to "​Patterns"​ and “PBSE”, we will  mean the use of S*Patterns, and these have the following distinguishing characteristics. ​+The term “pattern” appears repeatedly in the history of design, such as civil architecture,​ software design, and systems engineering.

-S*Patterns are Model-Based,​ and that is why this Challenge Team is slotted into the MBSE Initiative. We are referring to patterns represented by formal system models. Among the historical “design patterns”,​ certain of these were based on descriptions that were not formal system models. Although they are always models, S*Patterns are not dependent on any single system modeling language, and are readily expressed in SysML, IDEF, or other formal modeling languages. Independent of the specific modeling language, S*Models always conform to the underlying S*Metamodel,​ which is the smallest model sufficient to the purposes of engineering and science.[8]+S*Patterns are Model-Based,​ and that is why this Challenge Team is slotted into the MBSE Initiative.

 The S*Metamodel explicates Physical Interactions--state-impacting exchange of energy, force, mass, or information. Such interactions are the basis of substantially all the laws (patterns, regularities) of the physical sciences. Systems Engineering should have as strong a foundation as the other engineering disciplines,​ which are likewise based upon laws describing physical interactions. ​ The S*Metamodel explicates Physical Interactions--state-impacting exchange of energy, force, mass, or information.
