SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE DESIGN SPACE MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION ELEMENTS

J.H. Bussemaker¹, P.D. Ciampa¹, B. Nagel¹; ¹DLR, Germany

A graph-based methodology for modeling system architecture design spaces with implicitly defined decisions is presented. This methodology yields formalized semantic representations of the design space, enabling systematic exploration using optimization methods. Relevant use-cases are discussed to demonstrate the applicability of the methodology.
