A Modeling Framework for Analyzing the Viability of Service Systems

Gil Regev, Alain Wegmann, Arash Golnam

Recent research has explored the principles of service system viability based on systems inquiry invoking perspectives from Systems Theory and Cybernetics in particular Stafford Beer’s viable systems model (VSM). However based on Banathy & Jenlink (2004), ...

Integrating System Dynamics and Enterprise Modeling to Address Dynamic and Structural Complexities of Choice Situations

Alain Wegmann, Arash Golnam, Ann Van Ackere

The ability of enterprise managers to come up with the decisions leading to the best outcome for the enterprise is hampered by their cognitive limits in understanding and addressing the dynamic and structural complexities residing in choice situations. Dyn ...

A Systemic Approach for Enterprise Design

Alain Wegmann, Arash Golnam, Ron Sanchez

Adopting a systemic view of an enterprise and its environment, we propose a model-based approach for designing viable enterprises. In our approach, we apply Systemic Enterprise Architecture Method (SEAM) to visualize and graphically represent various aspec ...

On Viable Service Systems: Developing a Modeling Framework for Analysis of Viability in Service Systems

Gil Regev, Alain Wegmann, Arash Golnam

This paper explores the contribution of systems modeling to the design and analysis of viability in service systems. We apply a modeling framework called SEAM (Systemic Enterprise Architecture Method) to gain an understanding of how a service system mainta ...

A process model for structural identification

Ian Smith, Sandro Saitta

Structural identification is the activity of determining how a structure is behaving using results from measurements. This paper presents a process model for carrying out structural identification over the life of the structure using results from structura ...

Brief announcement: incremental component-based modeling, verification, and performance evaluation of distributed reset

Joseph Sifakis

In this work, we apply a methodology which consistently integrates modeling, verification, and performance evaluation techniques, based on the BIP (Behavior, Interaction, Priority) component framework developed at Verimag [A. Basu et al., 2006; A. Basu et ...

Formal semantics for refinement verification of entreprise models

Irina Rychkova

In this dissertation we investigate how Business/IT alignment in enterprise models can be enhanced by using a software engineering stepwise refinement paradigm. To have an IT system that supports an enterprise and meets the enterprise business needs, manag ...

Visual contracts (VCs)

José Diego de la Cruz Garcia

Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) harbors the promise of developing software-based systems with little or no coding. Instead of coding, it is envisioned that software engineers build models that are automatically translated into code. The modeling notation of ...

Model refactoring using transformations

Slavisa Markovic

Modern software is reaching levels of complexity encountered in biological systems; sometimes comprising systems of systems each of which may include tens of millions of lines of code. Model Driven Engineering (MDE) advocates raising the level of abstracti ...

A modeling framework for product development process considering its characteristics

Product development (PD) processes are complex and unstructured compared to business or manufacturing processes, as they have iterative, evolutionary, uncertain, and cooperative features. In order to effectively manage and control a complex PD process, app ...
