Hello MBSE Community, Since about Dec 18, I decided to see if I could get a presentation selected for the MBSE Cyber Systems Symposium coming up in May. Submitted the following Abstract back in early Jan and since then have been doing my research and composing it in a vacuum and am looking for some constructive criticism.  Have no idea if I would even be selected and I am also discovering that things I understood to be future advances back in late Dec are here already and that a whole slew of new things are happening now for the future of MBSE (exciting times for sure). In any event, gathered lots of data, read some papers and wrote up some very detailed slides that were all text.  In the attached, you will see at the bottom half of the presentation all that info that I collected that I then had to reduce to a set suitable for a presentation which are slides 2-13 now which would be the presented slides with interesting pics and artwork. 

I posted here because I am interested in some constructive criticism and feedback as well as corrections or additions. I am including the abstract here so that you understand the mover all message,  it is not a technical one but one of discovery, understanding the current and future roles and also a look at various industries and how those industries are progressing in MBSE to fill multiple needs.

So here is abstract:

So if you made it down this far reading my post, thank you.  If you are interested from the title reading part or all of the presentation, I am pretty thick skinned so welcome any positive or negative comments as I view constructive criticism as a way to learn and improve and also a way to then inform others.

Thanks,

Mar
