-The **[[mbse:​digital_engineering|Digital Engineering]]** Information Exchange Model (DEIXM) is a representation of the quantitative and qualitative characterization of the exchanges ​of digital artifacts ​in the **[[mbse:​model_based_engineering|Model-Based Engineering (MBE)]]** domain between various roles and organizations. The DEIXM for the MBE domain addresses the exchange of both graphical and non-graphical information found in model-centric **[[mbse:​digital_artifact|digital artifacts]]**. The MBE domain represents the methods, processes, tools, environments,​ and roles that one organizes ​to conduct MBE operations for the full lifecycle of systems or products. The DEIXM is a prescriptive model of the concept of operations, scenarios, use cases, and information required to exchange model-centric digital artifacts between disciplines and organizations. The DEIXM uses formalism and semantics to describe the relationships,​ constraints,​ rules, and operations required to exchange MBE information. The DEIXM may represent a descriptive information exchange model that characterizes the current approach to exchange engineering domain information. ​ Alternatively,​ the DEIXM may represent a prescriptive information exchange model that characterizes some future version of the means by which an engineering community exchanges information.  ​ +The **[[mbse:​digital_engineering|Digital Engineering]]** Information Exchange Model (DEIXM) is a representation of the quantitative and qualitative characterization of digital artifact ​exchanges in the  **[[mbse:​model_based_engineering|Model-Based Engineering (MBE)]]** domain between various roles and organizations.

 The Digital Engineering Information Exchange Model (DEIXM) provides a way to articulate the exchange of graphical and non-graphical digital artifacts among diverse stakeholders using digital technologies. The DEIXM describes how governments,​ industries, and academia offer, request, and exchange digital artifacts. The DEIXM also describes how the engineering community defines, creates, uses, and exchanges MBE digital artifacts during the full life cycle management of its systems and products. For any producer or consumer of engineering information,​ the DEIXM describes a way to leverage new digital technologies to visualize, communicate,​ and deliver MBE information to stakeholders. According to McDermott, et. al., the successful fulfillment of this purpose allows MBE information suppliers to insert their models into the buyers’ contextual framework and establish mutual agreements and comprehension of the components interfaces, interactions,​ and emergent behavior [1].  ​ The Digital Engineering Information Exchange Model (DEIXM) provides a way to articulate the exchange of graphical and non-graphical digital artifacts among diverse stakeholders using digital technologies.

-The DEIX Modeling ​Process uses the Federal CIO Council’s Information exchange package documentation (IEPD) lifecycle for participants of the NEIM [2] and Robert Suzie and Choong-ho Yi’s approach to progress from Information Exchange Requirements (IER) to an Information Exchange Model (IEM) [3]. Based on these two approaches, the DEIX Modeling process ​can include 1) Use case for information exchange relationships,​ 2) Elicitation & formalization of Information Exchange Requirements (IER) models, 3) Creation of Information Exchange Elements (IEE), 4) Mapping IEEs to Information Exchange Standards (IES), 5) Building and validating the new IEM, and, 6) publishing and implementing an IEM.
