Mission
The Tool Integration and Model Lifecyle Management WG provides a forum for discussion and dissemination of best practices, methods and processes that promote the development, the validation and the deployment of standards to advance the exchange of digital data between MBSE tools and toolsets.
Scope
The TIMLM WG is focused on the interoperability of tools, data, models and processes as they relate to a Systems Engineering process and methods throughout the acquisition and product development life cycles. The TIMLM collaborates with standards organizations such as PDES Inc., LOTAR, other STEP organizations and the INCOSE Standards Development Department to advance the data exchange standards to meet our stakeholders needs.
Goals
- To provide the systems engineering community a reliable source of information about tool data exchange and interoperability standards used during the execution of their business processes in the product lifecycle.
- To collaborate with standards organizations and other supporting INCOSE Working Groups to characterize systems engineering tool integration and interoperability requirements for tools and data standards for the exchange of Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) digital artifacts.
- To promote the development, validation and deployment of standards that advance the interoperability, storage, archival and retrieval of digital data and artifacts produced by systems engineering processes.
- To provide a forum for the discussion and dissemination of information regarding tool interoperability, data exchange, use cases for applying data exchange and interoperability standards and discussing interoperability accomplishments of in our systems engineering community
