For decades, systems engineering models lived in proprietary blobs, expensive to edit, hard to diff, impossible to review line by line. SysML v2 changes that. The model becomes text: standardized, rigorous, and at home in a Git repository.
This talk is a practical tour of what that shift enables, with Syside as the working example. We’ll cover the textual representation and what it means for collaboration, the Automator Python API for programmatic transformations, the Sysand package ecosystem for reuse, and Syside Cloud for browser-based access. We’ll look at where AI assistants fit within today’s System as Code workflow. A real case study from a satellite project shows the model driving generated diagnostics software, a monitoring portal, and a telemetry pipeline.
The talk closes with how individuals, teams, and educators can pick Syside up, from a free editor and 25 free lessons to enterprise migration support.
Audience: systems engineers, software engineers, architects, and anyone curious about modern MBSE tooling. Light technical level.
