    Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) has been the promise for complex systems design for many years. Still, many companies struggle to implement it. They tend to rely on paper based systems engineering, where visual diagrams combined with interaction between engineers is used to create innovative system designs. The A3 Architecture Overviews (A3AO) are very helpful in that.
    This project is about building a bridge between the visual/human systems engineering and MBSE.
    You will investigate existing approaches to Systems Engineering at our industrial partners Canon Production Printing, Rademaker Industrial Bakery Equipment and VMI machinery. Building on their approaches and information infrastructures, you will improve the communication in the development process.
    You will lead the development of a digital (file) format for the A3AOs that contains both visual and logical information, so that it can be used in inter-human conversations, and for feeding into MBSE and other digital information structures present in companies. Also, you will work on means to handle the A3AOs (like an editor).
    PhD position on connecting the fuzzy frontend of systems engineering to existing information infrastructures.
