Using model-based systems engineering (MBSE) and SysML for integrated sustainable manufacturing

ABSTRACT:

This article motivates the use of MBSE and SysML for organizational development and argues for a model-based integration of sustainable leadership (SL) into sustainable manufacturing (SM). We discuss whether modeling requirements resulting from SM and SL literature can be met by SysML and introduce an initial black box perspective and meta-model. The work is part of a larger research project aiming to transfer findings from SM and SL research into a model-based integrated SM in order to support a human-centered perspective. This work shows that SysML is suitable for organizational use cases.
