To reach the breadth and depth of DE concept definitions, the interpretation of international standard sources is necessary, including ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288, 24765, 42000-series, 15408, 15206, 27000-series, and 25000-series, to effectively model the knowledge domain where digital engineering applies. The harmonization of the concepts used in these international standards continues to improve with each revision, but it may be more effectively accomplished by relying on the descriptive logic formalized in the Web Ontology Language (OWL 2 DL). This paper presents a verified and consistent ontology based on the Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) and Common Core Ontologies (CCO) that defines Seamless Digital Engineering as a digital tooling paradigm that relies on formal verification of digital interfaces to provide a system-level qualification of the assured integrity of a Digital Engineering Environment. The present work defines classes and equivalence axioms, while using only the BFO- and CCO-defined object properties that relate them, to provide a baseline analysis that may inform future DE-related ontology development, using a case study to formally define the ‘seamless’ quality in relation to the updated ISO 25010 SQuaRE product quality model. We identified ISO meta-model inconsistencies that are resolvable using the BFO/CCO ontological framework, and define ‘seamless’ as both a system integration quality and a Human-Computer Interface quality-in-use, working to disambiguate this concept in the context of DE.","PeriodicalId":100663,"journal":{"name":"INCOSE International Symposium","volume":"35 1","pages":"457-474"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145248529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MBSE is often performed within very localized contexts, creating models that inform their immediate stakeholders but not necessarily suitable for broader use or reuse. However, if the models are intended to serve wider purposes— e.g., to be more broadly used, reused, and federated to enable sharing of the information they contain— standards are needed to advance the quality, value, usability, and interoperability of those models, particularly when the intent is for the MBSE activity to contribute to and participate in a more comprehensive digital engineering (DE) ecosystem. This paper describes the problem of model interoperability in MBSE within a DE context and the role that standards could play in facilitating broader use, reuse, and federation of models to achieve greater value from those models. It also describes standards for model quality, content, usability, and interoperability that are needed to advance the MBSE integration maturity not only of individual organizations but also of the broader MBSE community at large.","PeriodicalId":100663,"journal":{"name":"INCOSE International Symposium","volume":"35 1","pages":"427-443"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145248627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This necessitates numerous post-production design changes over time to facilitate new technological developments or to counter emerging threats. How-ever, system engineering (SE) research prioritizes earlier design studies, and research on post-production design changes and sustainment of SoS is nascent. This study presents findings from a case study of a Navy SE team that is tasked with executing the post-production design projects for a diverse set of Navy assets. More specifically, we focus on the preliminary design phase and document the socio-technical complexity of these projects through interviews and on-site observations. We find that these projects necessitate careful management of a diverse set of external and internal stakeholders; along with executing an array of disciplinary analyses in conjunction with each other. We then analyze our findings to characterize four archetypical inefficiency modes that might be generalizable to all post-production design change projects for SoS. These include loss of configuration control, volatile requirements, handoffs between disciplinary analysis, and a lack of a digital authoritative source of truth. Although neither of these inefficiency modes is surprising, this study documents the intricate nature of how these mechanisms influence the process and why they are difficult to counter.","PeriodicalId":100663,"journal":{"name":"INCOSE International Symposium","volume":"35 1","pages":"702-713"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145248718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A significant change in Zero Trust compared to legacy paradigms is the principle that systems should grant access to resources (devices, internal websites, data, software as a service, etc.) on a per-session basis after conducting authentication and authorization that is dynamic and strictly enforced. To facilitate this tide of additional scrutiny, Zero Trust strategies also emphasize the need for data science systems that use behavioral signatures to automate elements of the authentication and authorization process. Researchers have proposed a variety of statistical and machine learning approaches for analyzing behavioral data, most often from the perspective of anomaly detection. This work uses simulated data from the CERT Insider Threat Test Dataset to examine two general approaches to using behavior data to support authentication and authorization decisions: deep learning and Bayesian hierarchical models. Though the performance levels of the two approaches are comparable, we find for both user authentication and authorization that Bayesian hierarchical models have higher recall, especially when fewer anomalies are allowed. While deep learning models are likely to remain the dominant approach for large-scale network monitoring tasks, such as intrusion detection, more structured statistical models could still be a valuable tool for regulating access management under Zero Trust.","PeriodicalId":100663,"journal":{"name":"INCOSE International Symposium","volume":"35 1","pages":"1619-1638"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145248425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This surge of expanding capabilities in modern systems reinforces the need for effective design management to lower the risk of detrimental architecture mistakes. Alongside this growth, the systems engineering community is undergoing its own digital transformation aimed at identifying gaps between unconnected artifacts created by rapid development cycles and siloed engineering disciplines. Digital twins, in combination with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), can fill these gaps by consolidating system aspects, enabling intuitive interactions, and aiding real-time relationship analysis.MBSE methodologies are being widely adopted to address expanding system capabilities, combat architectural risks, and mitigate communication difficulties. MBSE has been proven to improve these issues; however, it can still exhibit a complicated view. The sheer number of interconnected files and diagrams may impede communication, but proper vetting of design needs can be simplified with the use of digital twins. The authors have created a coupled digital twin and MBSE system that can fill these gaps.Since digital twins are a validated representation of a system, they can be used to guide MBSE models. This paper focuses on validating MBSE attributes within a game engine environment, where visuals add interaction to analysis and context for system behaviors. The authors conducted a study focused on validating the authors' hypothesis that capabilities offered by an MBSE-linked digital twin can facilitate collaboration on development, as well as promote understanding between analysts and stakeholders. This paper provides the results of the authors' research and lessons learned exploring the fusion of an MBSE-linked digital twin with MBSE representations to promote real-time relationship analysis, rapid comprehension of complex systems, and collaboration across multiple domains.","PeriodicalId":100663,"journal":{"name":"INCOSE International Symposium","volume":"35 1","pages":"778-793"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145248536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Digitalization has, for that reason, become more prevalent. It has allowed businesses to re-evaluate how they operate and set up their goals and strategies, allowing them to build resilience that has helped them harness data to gain better insights and analytics. The oil and gas industry could use a more holistic model-based approach to planning integrated maintenance. This may be accomplished using model-based systems engineering (MBSE) principles adapted to the oil & gas industry. MBSE usage for maintenance and test concepts can be further enhanced by using analytics to deal with failure rates of different types of components. Calculations based on design and operational experience data can improve overall maintenance planning and management. On/off valves, as defined in the international standard, ISO 14224, have various applications in industrial processes and are commonly used in safety systems. Therefore, on/off valves have been selected for the scope of this manuscript.

The trajectory of the digital health transformation was significantly boosted and bolstered by significant growth in venture capital funding following the COVID-19 pandemic. Digital health venture capital funding mirrored that of siloed biomedical venture capital growth. However, the value of digital health transformation in healthcare delivery (a system of systems) goes beyond the focus on technology. For digital health transformation to realize its unique opportunity to address the fragmentation of healthcare delivery systems and to truly build digital health systems that address interoperability for healthcare systems and patients, there needs to be a systemic (systems thinking) approach to digital health transformation. It's important to note that digital health, as discussed here, includes Artificial Intelligence (AI). While this paper focuses on digital transformation in healthcare, it also acknowledges the significance of digital engineering within systems engineering. And yet, there has been minimal integration of systems engineering and systems thinking into digital health transformation. Through two illustrative examples, we apply systems thinking to analyze the systemic focus of digital health companies to illustrate by juxtaposition the differences between technology-focused and system-focused digital health companies. In doing so, we highlight the pressing need to integrate systems thinking and systems engineering into a fast-paced digital health transformation climate at this critical stage of growth.","PeriodicalId":100663,"journal":{"name":"INCOSE International Symposium","volume":"35 1","pages":"1465-1478"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145248693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
