the Systems Engineering (DE) transformation of systems engineering. Broadly this research
Engineering Research has covered the enabling digital technologies that are changing how companies
Center" do engineering and their approaches to use models for customer engagement and
engineering analysis. More narrowly the research analyzed and prototyped new
concepts of operation for systems engineering, use of model-based engineering
(MBE) to streamline and improve the quality of engineering processes, and the
emerging data and model infrastructures. In the process, the research
benchmarked DE maturity across government and industry, identified means to
measure progress and value, and created new competency models. In addition, the
research explored the opportunities to use DE to increase development speed,
improve system safety and security, and take advantage of emerging artificial
intelligence technologies. The presentation will summarize what we have learned
from the research and offer new insight on how DE might further change the
future of SE. Highlights for this year’s MBSE Workshop: Day 1: During our last INCOSE
Symposium MBSE Lightning Round, Dr. Tom McDermott provided insights Systems
Engineering Research Center (SERC) progress in Digital Engineering (DE) with some
interesting insights that his 18 min time limit didn’t provide time to share the details.
We’ve asked Dr. McDermott to come back and keynote/kickoff the MBSE Workshop with
those details in hopes it will set the mood to address a variety of issues impeding our
progress in implementing MBSE in our organizations. After a break we will have our
Working Group Round Robin where various working groups sharing their MBSE related
progress, followed by an update on the INCOSE Systems Engineering Tools Lab, and wrap
up with an MBSE Open Forum. This forum will allow open Q&A exchange on MBSE
concerns, lessons learned, and advice from experts on various MBSE topics to share their
knowledge and experience. Day 2: will include an all-day SysML v2 Transition workshop
intended to assist organizations and practitioners in their transition from SysML v1 to
SysML v2. With the imminent release of the SysML v2 standard the timing of this
workshop is perfect to provide information on implementing the new system modeling
standard.Sunday evening is our MBSE Social with includes the coveted Propeller Hat

Bending the Arc of session Engineering Change Lab Canada. The power and pace of technological change is Costantini, Mark Systems;; Group
Technology Towards creating incredible opportunities and challenges. More is required of us if we are to realize Abbott
Good the associated promise and avoid the perils. Tech stewardship is a professional
identity, orientation, and practice. Tech stewards continuously discuss, refine and imagine
new ways to shape technology for the benefit of all. The Tech Stewardship Practice
Program (TSPP) is a 12h online mini credential program that is offered by MaRS Discovery
District in Toronto, Canada. The program supports a diverse range of individuals and
organizations to strengthen their tech stewardship practices. It is particularly relevant for
engineers, as we are the ones who are actually creating the physical, digital, and biological
technologies that are transforming our world. Over the past two years, thousands of
engineers have completed the TSPP and there are over 30 post-secondary institutions who
are offering it to their students.  In this session, Mark Abbott will introduce the core
principles of tech stewardship, provide an overview of the practice program, and discuss
how you can leverage it at your own school or organization.Mark Abbott, P.Eng., MBA, is an
Ashoka Fellow who currently serves as the Director of Tech Stewardship at MaRS Discovery
District. He is also the Director of the Engineering Change Lab, which is a multi-organization
collaborative effort that seeks to make tech stewardship the new normal in the engineering
community. Previously, Mark served as a member of the Executive Team at Engineers
Without Borders Canada for several years.  And before that, Mark spent fourteen
years working for a heavy industrial consulting engineering firm based in Vancouver.

Information Session Available for results from the SysML v1 to SysML v2 Transition Guide Project that is sponsored by the Sanford Friedenthal,
Replay Director of Digital Engineering, Modeling and Simulation within the DoD Office under Chris Schreiber
Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD(R&E). This effort was initiated at
a workshop at the INCOSE IW 2023 to elicit needs on the types of transition guidance that
the community felt would be helpful.The transition from SysML v1.x to SysML v2 will
require careful planning to update the modeling practices, methodology, and tools, and the
training to ready the workforce. There are also important questions of when a project
should make the transition to SysML v2 and how to make that transition. These topics and
more will be covered in the information session. The topics include:· Introduction·
SysML v2 basicsa. Overviewb. Comparing SysML v2 with SysML v1c. Walkthrough
of a SysML v2 starter model· SysML v1 to v2 transition planninga. General
approachb. Organizations sharing their initial SysML v2 transition plansc. Vendors
sharing their SysML v2 roadmaps· SysML v1 to v2 model conversion approachThis
session provides critical information to help kick start your efforts to transition from SysML
v1 to SysML v2 and leverage the SysML v2 capability to advance your MBSE approach and
improve the quality of your system models. BackgroundThe Object Management Group®
(OMG®) approved the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) version 2 beta specifications on
June 30, 3023 and the specifications entered the finalization phase. The final adopted
specifications are anticipated to be available in 2024. Several tool vendors have announced
their plans to support SysML v2 and are actively developing their SysML v2
implementations.SysML v2 enables the modeling of increasingly complex systems as part
of the evolving practice of model-based systems engineering, This next-generation systems
modeling provides improved precision, expressiveness, consistency, usability,
interoperability, and extensibility over SysML version 1. SysML v2 provides complementary
textual and graphical representations of the underlying model which facilitates improved
system understanding. A standard API and associated set of services to navigate, query,
and update the model enables interoperability with other tools and software applications
throughout the life cycle of system development. Agenda:09:30 – 12:00 PST•

nature. Furthermore, society is witnessing a rapid transformation due to the FuSE;
emergence of powerful new technologies that can potentially cause disruptive
changes. In light of these challenges, it is imperative to reconsider how SE
can continue to address complex problems and provide enduring value in the
future. Similarly, INCOSE must also rethink its approach to deliver on its
vision of "A better world through a systems approach." The FuSE project by INCOSE was
established to address
concerns about the future relevance of Systems Engineering (SE) in light of the
changes mentioned above. The FuSE project created the "Bridge Team,"
consisting of three INCOSE Fellows: Peter Brook, Mike Pennotti, and David
Rousseau, and it has recently added Javier Calvo-Amodio. The Bridge Team's
purpose is to investigate 1) how SE principles and heuristics could be
improved, 2) how SE could evolve to make better use of its "guiding propositions,"
and 3) how that might support FuSE's vision of ensuring the enduring value of
SE. To fulfill its purpose, the Bridge Team seeks to encourage and facilitate a
conversation within INCOSE and the wider SE community to deepen our collective
understanding of the essential nature of SE, how to describe and quantify its
value, how it can help solve increasingly complex problems in the future, and
how its evolution can be guided towards that end.Workshop
Scope:During the workshop, we will delve into various questions and
issues related to systems engineering (SE) evolution. An introduction to the
joint initiative between FuSE, the Bridge Team, the Systems Science Working
Group, the Systems Engineering Journal, and INSIGHT magazine will kick off the
workshop. This initiative aims to recruit and publish ideas and recommendations
about the future directions for SE's development. The SE journal's website will
imminently publish a Call for Papers and a list of key issues of these publications that will
serve as a foundation for
broader efforts. Workshop

in the coming year. Individual
presentations: Big Ideas and Hot Topics in PM-SE integrationBad News, Good
News, and Team Tools: A secret formula to project success - Molly Kovaka (10 min)
"As a PM,
how do you convince a project owner to include Systems Engineering and a
Systems Engineer in the team from the start? This is my client-facing pitch for
why PM and SE collaboration is vitally important to project success - and how
to harness it by combining a secret formula with existing tools."
Integrating PM and SE and
suiting standard processes at the program and system life cycle data - John Metcalf (20

"Using
Design Structure Matrix (DSM) Techniques in a Major Defense Acquisition Program
(MDAP) to Define the Product Development (PD) Work Products"
PM-SE Integration with LML and Innoslate - Steven Dam (20 min)
"The
Lifecycle Modeling Language (LML) was designed from its inception in 2013 as a
means to provide an effective ontology for systems engineering and program
management. More recently it was updated to expand the program management
capabilities of the language. This open standard has been incorporated in SPEC
Innovations' Innoslate tool."
A life cycle from a PM’s POV (Project
Start-Project End) is defined differently than from the SE’s POV, but
there is a ‘shared space’ where SEs and PMs have to collaborate… - Carlos
Coelho (20 min)
"This
ongoing research initiative asks the questions: What are the life cycle stages
that PM and SE should optimize the benefits of integration? How do we focus on
the processes that have more common goals to optimize the integration between
PM and SE in a shared space? This session will also briefly highlight outcomes

a workshop at the INCOSE IW 2023 to elicit needs on the types of transition guidance that
the community felt would be helpful.The transition from SysML v1.x to SysML v2 will
require careful planning to update the modeling practices, methodology, and tools, and the
training to ready the workforce. There are also important questions of when a project
should make the transition to SysML v2 and how to make that transition. These topics and
more will be covered in the information session. The topics include:· Introduction·
SysML v2 basicsa. Overviewb. Comparing SysML v2 with SysML v1c. Walkthrough
of a SysML v2 starter model· SysML v1 to v2 transition planninga. General
approachb. Organizations sharing their initial SysML v2 transition plansc. Vendors
sharing their SysML v2 roadmaps· SysML v1 to v2 model conversion approachThis
session provides critical information to help kick start your efforts to transition from SysML
v1 to SysML v2 and leverage the SysML v2 capability to advance your MBSE approach and
improve the quality of your system models. BackgroundThe Object Management Group®
(OMG®) approved the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) version 2 beta specifications on
June 30, 3023 and the specifications entered the finalization phase. The final adopted
specifications are anticipated to be available in 2024. Several tool vendors have announced
their plans to support SysML v2 and are actively developing their SysML v2
implementations.SysML v2 enables the modeling of increasingly complex systems as part
of the evolving practice of model-based systems engineering, This next-generation systems
modeling provides improved precision, expressiveness, consistency, usability,
interoperability, and extensibility over SysML version 1. SysML v2 provides complementary
textual and graphical representations of the underlying model which facilitates improved
system understanding. A standard API and associated set of services to navigate, query,
and update the model enables interoperability with other tools and software applications
throughout the life cycle of system development. Agenda:15:30 – 17:30 PST• SysML v1 to
v2 transition planning (continued)c. Organization transition planning approach – An
industry perspective – Chris Schreiber (35 min)d. Tool vendor panel – 12 vendors (1 hr 10

(HRI) toward refining distinctions between reliability and trustworthiness in assessing levels of

by exploring the element of surprise in strategic game play in human-robot interaction

SE for Industrial Monday 15:30 17:00 Hybrid Hideaway oday, SE is largely applied to the development of “product” viewed as the system of Emmanuelle Garcia New Working
(Manufacturing) session interest while the industrial system, which allows the production of them, is considered as Interest Group
Systems an enabler.From a manufacturer perspective, his system of interest is the industrial system Group;
which is also quite complex (network, interfaces, technology, connectivity…) with a
growing complexity with Industry 4.0. Thus, SE application could bring benefits in the
development of the industrial system itself. Nevertheless, an industrial system has its own
specificities and historical development frameworks (lean, APQP, six-sigma…). Application
of SE standard(s) to the development of an industrial system needs then to be customized
and be an integrated framework of all known and practices of development. A better
understanding and description on how the development of the Industrial system and the
product/system he will produce in co-design is also required to improve our production
capability and efficiency.This is an initial meeting to cover the application of SE to industrial
system development to ensure it's lifecycle continuity. The objective is to establish an
interest group including & leadership team to prepare the basis for chartering the WG. This
is consistent with the "Application Extension" ambition of FuSE stream to different domains
and lifecycle phases.

Intercultural latest trends within smart systems engineering propose advanced processes to Institute;
Communication share models between peers, customers, teers etc. In most cases, we tend to
forget that sharing models, collaborating in requirements specs, etc. also
imply collaboration of engineers. We humans are diverse, externally
(physically), internally (psychologically), and socially (culturally).

A person is not born with a certain culture, it is learned

or acquired. Culture affects the way we think, feel, behave, and forms our
perception and judgement of others. It is the thought patterns, feelings, and
interactions which we are familiar with and which we share with others in our community.

This talk for TLI members by Juan Llorens (Cohort 1) will get a bit deeper in the cultural
differences between countries
(homogenizing them, of course) with the intention for the systems engineers and
technical leaders to gain insights into how engineers of other cultures behave.
The intention: to improve our skills to better cope with the intercultural challenges
in multinational projects.

pandemic? – suggest a TechOps survey to chapter leaders and WG leaders (several
root cause theories for this…need to check if anecdotal premise is true)B. Civil
Engineering norms over the past 100 years drives the glacial SE adoption (ref AIA, ICE
and McKinsey Reports). Most of the working groups cited above have common cause
and standing to approach the problem collaboratively.C. Multiple viewpoints from
active volunteers in these working groups is very valuable – more variety of topics
and speakers keeps discussion threads fresh and interesting.D. Leverage precious
volunteer time across several working groups (e.g., common, or shared social media
moderator, common Webmaster, common U-Tube channel admin, better
collaboration on papers, webinars, coordinated IS tracks, monthly workshops, shared
outreach burdens to external organizations)E. Explore new areas where INCOSE /
TechOps could provide centralized support or services to minimize the use of
engineering volunteers to perform tedious administrative functions

Robot Interaction (HRI) Available for pretrained platforms confront us with the ontological implications of emergent,
Replay algorithmically-derived sensibilities once believed to be the unique domain of being
human. The role of physically embodied interaction serves in this work as a
methodology grounded in praxis toward refining distinctions between reliability and
trustworthiness in assessing levels of safety and learning in various forms of human
| robot interaction (HRI). The performance lecture (KEYNOTE) describes the
theoretical basis for studying the issues of trust indirectly by exploring the element of
surprise in strategic game play in human-robot interaction (HRI). An original short
play written with a generative pretrained transformer and performed by live actors
will serve as a Turing Test. Discussion will encourage contemplation of who (and
what) might properly be considered an embodied intelligence.

Conducting a Competency Self- session associates. Starting as a Corporate Advisory Board priority, the PDP was created to
Assessment in the PDP provide value to new engineers, experienced systems engineers, contributors, and
corporate officials. With coordination across INCOSE, the PDP was developed to
provide an ability for users to conduct a competency self-assessment, browse and
search a content catalog, save discovered learning resources to a private bookshelf,
and report completed professional development to their managers. Initially,
INCOSE’s Systems Engineering Competency Framework (ISECF) was incorporated into
the PDP to support basic competency self-assessments. Now, with the recent
publication of the Systems Engineering Competency Assessment Guide (SECAG), PDP
users can now do a more detailed competency self-assessment and send their results
with evidence to their managers. Starting with a brief overview of the PDP updates
since IW 23, this workshop will provide an overview of both the INCOSE Systems
Engineering Competency Framework and Systems Engineering Competency
Assessment Guide, and finish with hands-on training on conducting both a basic and a
detailed competency self-assessment that you can use to determine what to do next
for your professional development while creating your learning journey.Join the PDP

SE for Industrial (Manufacturing) Emmanuelle Garcia Mon, 29 Jan 15:30 17:00 Hybrid Hideaway oday, SE is largely applied to the development of “product” viewed as the system of New Interest Group; Working Group
Systems session interest while the industrial system, which allows the production of them, is
considered as an enabler.From a manufacturer perspective, his system of interest is
the industrial system which is also quite complex (network, interfaces, technology,
connectivity…) with a growing complexity with Industry 4.0. Thus, SE application could
bring benefits in the development of the industrial system itself. Nevertheless, an
industrial system has its own specificities and historical development frameworks
(lean, APQP, six-sigma…). Application of SE standard(s) to the development of an
industrial system needs then to be customized and be an integrated framework of all
known and practices of development. A better understanding and description on how
the development of the Industrial system and the product/system he will produce in
co-design is also required to improve our production capability and efficiency.This is
an initial meeting to cover the application of SE to industrial system development to
ensure it's lifecycle continuity. The objective is to establish an interest group including
& leadership team to prepare the basis for chartering the WG. This is consistent with
the "Application Extension" ambition of FuSE stream to different domains and
lifecycle phases.

Tech Stewardship - Bending the Arc Dennis Tuckowski, Kai Sat, 27 Jan 15:30 17:00 Hybrid Pier 10 An introduction to Tech Stewardship and related programming with Mark Abbott Natural Systems;; Working Group
of Technology Towards Good Costantini, Mark Abbott session from the Engineering Change Lab Canada. The power and pace of technological
change is creating incredible opportunities and challenges. More is required of us if
we are to realize the associated promise and avoid the perils. Tech stewardship
is a professional identity, orientation, and practice. Tech stewards continuously
discuss, refine and imagine new ways to shape technology for the benefit of
all. The Tech Stewardship Practice Program (TSPP) is a 12h online mini
credential program that is offered by MaRS Discovery District in Toronto, Canada. The
program supports a diverse range of individuals and organizations to strengthen their
tech stewardship practices. It is particularly relevant for engineers, as we are the ones
who are actually creating the physical, digital, and biological technologies that are
transforming our world. Over the past two years, thousands of engineers have
completed the TSPP and there are over 30 post-secondary institutions who are
offering it to their students.  In this session, Mark Abbott will introduce the
core principles of tech stewardship, provide an overview of the practice program, and
discuss how you can leverage it at your own school or organization.Mark Abbott,
P.Eng., MBA, is an Ashoka Fellow who currently serves as the Director of Tech
Stewardship at MaRS Discovery District. He is also the Director of the Engineering
Change Lab, which is a multi-organization collaborative effort that seeks to make tech
stewardship the new normal in the engineering community. Previously, Mark served
as a member of the Executive Team at Engineers Without Borders Canada for several
years.  And before that, Mark spent fourteen years working for a heavy
industrial consulting engineering firm based in Vancouver.

Collectively, this group has deep prior experience in performance and movement
(Gerardo), creative robotics (Twomey) and human-robot interaction (Eguchi and
Twomey). One large group interactive demonstration (Group Rock, Paper, Scissors
Game onstage) and five (5) HRI installations will enable attendees to engage in
creative play that will contribute to ongoing comparative studies on cognitive learning
strategies in preprogrammed versus cognitive learning AI.

TLI Topical Engagement: David Long Mon, 29 Jan 15:30 17:00 Closed Salon B In modern engineering, projects are becoming more and more Technical Leadership Business Meeting
Intercultural Communication session complicated/complex, distributed, collaborative, and of course, international. The Institute;
latest trends within smart systems engineering propose advanced processes to
share models between peers, customers, teers etc. In most cases, we tend to
forget that sharing models, collaborating in requirements specs, etc. also
imply collaboration of engineers. We humans are diverse, externally
(physically), internally (psychologically), and socially (culturally).

A person is not born with a certain culture, it is learned

or acquired. Culture affects the way we think, feel, behave, and forms our
perception and judgement of others. It is the thought patterns, feelings, and
interactions which we are familiar with and which we share with others in our
community.

This talk for TLI members by Juan Llorens (Cohort 1) will get a bit deeper in the
cultural differences between countries
(homogenizing them, of course) with the intention for the systems engineers and
technical leaders to gain insights into how engineers of other cultures behave.
The intention: to improve our skills to better cope with the intercultural challenges
in multinational projects.

Towards a Vision for Ensuring SE’s Javier Calvo-Amodio, Sun, 28 Jan 09:30 10:30 Hybrid Salon F Workshop Systems Science;Bridge Working Group
Enduring Value David Rousseau, Peter session Background:The world is facing an increasing number of complex problems Team | FuSE;
Brook, Mike Pennotti that are interconnected and vary in their technical, social, and ecological
nature. Furthermore, society is witnessing a rapid transformation due to the
emergence of powerful new technologies that can potentially cause disruptive
changes. In light of these challenges, it is imperative to reconsider how SE
can continue to address complex problems and provide enduring value in the
future. Similarly, INCOSE must also rethink its approach to deliver on its
vision of "A better world through a systems approach." The FuSE project by INCOSE
was established to address
concerns about the future relevance of Systems Engineering (SE) in light of the
changes mentioned above. The FuSE project created the "Bridge Team,"
consisting of three INCOSE Fellows: Peter Brook, Mike Pennotti, and David
Rousseau, and it has recently added Javier Calvo-Amodio. The Bridge Team's
purpose is to investigate 1) how SE principles and heuristics could be
improved, 2) how SE could evolve to make better use of its "guiding propositions,"
and 3) how that might support FuSE's vision of ensuring the enduring value of
SE. To fulfill its purpose, the Bridge Team seeks to encourage and facilitate a
conversation within INCOSE and the wider SE community to deepen our collective
understanding of the essential nature of SE, how to describe and quantify its
value, how it can help solve increasingly complex problems in the future, and
how its evolution can be guided towards that end.Workshop
Scope:During the workshop, we will delve into various questions and
issues related to systems engineering (SE) evolution. An introduction to the
joint initiative between FuSE, the Bridge Team, the Systems Science Working
Group, the Systems Engineering Journal, and INSIGHT magazine will kick off the
workshop. This initiative aims to recruit and publish ideas and recommendations
about the future directions for SE's development. The SE journal's website will
imminently publish a Call for Papers and a list of key issues of these publications that
will serve as a foundation for
broader efforts. Workshop
Objective:

Town Hall: The Future of INCOSE David Long, Steve Sun, 28 Jan 08:00 09:00 Hybrid Salon DE Join us to learn about INCOSE’s new strategic plan, the evolution of our professional Plenary
Records session and staff, and how you can share your insights to help shape the future of INCOSE.
