Conclusion

www.sparxsystems.com
Conclusion
Very slow adoption
<1% of total userbase
Early Adopters, mainly SysML
Evaluators, SysML Practitioners, not
enough ‘real customers’

Food for thought to consider to


broaden adoption to the
mainstream
Tool interoperability between SysML-
capable tools, simulators, analysers and
repositories (not JUST SysML model
vendors) – AP233

Conclusion…
Food for thought…
Maturity of the language – SysML 1.1
RTF efforts at the OMG
UML has enjoyed 10+years to develop
its ubiquity – does SysML need just as
much time?
