Applying the Autonomous Ground Vehicle Reference Architecture to MBSE

Utilizing model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is a key enabler for high-quality system design and application of Modular Open Systems Approach principles. The Autonomous Ground Vehicle Reference Architecture (AGVRA) provides meta-models, architectural guidelines, best practices, and a library of reusable model content for the Army robotics and autonomous systems (RAS) community to facilitate MBSE development of autonomous systems. This webinar will provide a summary of AGVRA’s models, detailing the categories of model elements along with their overall utility and describing key applications utilized across the U.S. Department of Defense. Applying AGVRA MBSE work products contributes to high-quality outcomes in RAS systems and provides new and improved functional and operational autonomous ground vehicle capability.
