Relation of Service Systems Engineering with Model Based Systems Engineering

From the previous meeting it was decided that as MBSE appeared to be 'the only show in town' then we should know how SSE related to MBSE from all angles. To accomplish this it was proposed to try and contact the INCOSE UK MBSE group and see what could be arranged.

As a result a paper abstract for ASEC2019 was written by Simon Wright and James Towers (chair of the MBSE group). Unfortunately thhe abstract was net accepted.

Management

Simon Wright and Iain Cardlow had contacted James to see if e could arrange a joint working session. However, this had not been possible due to work loads. It was agreed to use the INCOSE UK Z-Guide 9 on MBSE as it is at an elementary level that those outside the subject should be able to understand.
