Getting Started with Innoslate®
Realize successful, smarter systems with Innoslatethe full lifecycle systems engineering tool
The Full Lifecycle in One Tool
One View Automatically Produces Many Views
• Functional Views• Physical Views• Requirements Views
View Auto-Generation Gives You• Simplicity: Learn just the LML Action Diagram, LML Asset Diagram, and
Requirements View to generate 15+ diagrams and matrices automatically
• Accuracy: All diagrams and views are automatically synced with each other to prevent model errors and inconsistencies
• Efficiency: Manually create fewer diagrams while automatically generating diagrams difficult to generate manually
• Enforce standards: Diagrams in Innoslate adhere to the LML, SysML, and/or best practices to ensure compliance across the project
Getting Started with Innoslate
Innoslate Security• All connections are SSL encrypted in transit• New files uploaded are 128bit AES encrypted at rest• All developers in Northern Virginia• Public cloud provider has the following security
certifications:• ISO 27001:2005• SAS70 Type II• SSAE 16 Type II• ISAE 3402 Type II
• Innoslate Enterprise can be deployed locally behind your firewall.• Amazon Gov Cloud • NSERC (SIPR and NIPR)
6
System Requirements• Platform Independent
• Works on Windows XP/7/8/RT, MAC OS X, Linux, iOS, Android
• Software• Any modern web browser (Google
Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, IE 10 or 11)
• No downloads required
7
CONOPS/Use Case Development
Use Cases• Use Case Diagram
• Used to list use cases• Action or Activity Diagram
• Used to create executable processes• Use discrete event and/or Monte Carlo simulators
Simulate Your Scenario
Explore the variation of individual steps to execute the model over many iterations using the Monte Carlo Simulator
Watch scenario execute at all levels using the Discrete Event Simulator
Architecture-Based CONOPS Document• Use CONOPS templates in
Documents View to create a detailed CONOPS document based on the architecture of your system
• Use this living document throughout the lifecycle
Requirements Management
Import Originating Artifacts• Select “Import Analyzer”• Automatically identifies
potential requirements vs. statements that provide context
13
Use Traceability Spider Diagram to link between Requirements, Actions and Assets• Shows how a single
entity (database object) is related to the rest of the system
• Drag and drop new entities and create relationships right from the diagram
14
Generate Specifications from the Model
15
Implements the way to go from MBSE to a specification.
Integration and Test Support
Innoslate Supports the I&T Phase
• Documents View has Test Plan templates already available
• Test results from other tools can also be captured as Artifacts and traced back to requirements, use cases, and CONOPS
• You can analyze and enhance your test processes and procedures using the functional analysis tools available
Build the Asset Diagram to Capture Interfaces
18
Create a classic block diagram … … or add pictures and special lines for concept diagram
Or Use the Internal Block Diagram or Physical I/O Diagram• SysML IBD provides
ports and interfaces• Physical I/O diagram
shows data flows with physical entities (Assets)
• Will automatically set up Conduits between Assets and allocate the I/Os to those Conduits
Program Management
• Risk Management• Configuration
Management• Issue Tracking
Develop the Project Management Plan in Innoslate• Now the plan
elements can be directly related to requirements, risks, decisions, and business processes
• Output as MS Word Document
21
Conduct Model-Based Project Management• All modern (last 60
years) business approaches emphasize process modeling
• Includes identification of products (deliverables) and resources
Derive the Schedule• Use the processes to
develop realistic schedules
• Automatically captures simulation results as Artifacts for comparison and documentation
• Cost and resource reports
Derive Schedule, Cost, Time, and more
Capture Risks and Conduct Risk Analysis• Identify risks as part of
the overall requirements, functional and physical analyses
• Trace the sources of risk to these analyses
25
Functional Architecture and Sequence Diagrams
Build an Action Diagram to Easily Model Scenarios or Business Processes• Functional modeling
• sequencing and data flow, with allocation and resource modeling explicit• Drag/drop capable• Executable in both Discrete Event and Monte Carlo simulators
27
Or Use the Sequence Diagram
• Functional sequencing• Another view from the
database, not a separate “drawing”
• Can generate from Action Diagram or be used to generate an Action Diagram
• Also, drag and drop capable, with sidebar for information on entities
And the IDEF0 Diagram • Classic data flow modeling• Drag and drop• Sidebar enabled• ICOM view also available
DoDAF Architecture
DoDAF Dashboard• Access to all
DoDAF products• DM2 Statistics• PES export
DM2 = DoDAF MetaModel 2.0
Tool ComparisonsInnoslate vs. SysML Drawing Tool• Automatic diagram generation (Develop a few diagrams and automatically generate many diagrams; saving time and increasing accuracy)• Large scalability (Innoslate Cloud - thousands of users around the world across many servers; Innoslate Enterprise - tested for 500 users and 10 million objects)• Complete requirements tool (replace and exceed DOORS capabilities)• Complete simulation capability (simulators in other tools only provide a step logic checker; Innoslate has analytical Discrete Event and Monte Carlo simulators that provide cost, schedule, and performance information)• Real-Time Collaboration (Real time updates, group chat, and project dashboard)• Platform Independent (Works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, Android, Chrome OS)• Availability (Public Cloud @ innoslate.com, NIPRNet on NSERC, SIPRNet on NSERC, Amazon GovCloud, Amazon AWS, Private Server at your data center)
Tool ComparisonInnoslate vs. Requirement Tools• Advanced quality analysis (Integrated Natural Language Parsing technology scores and recommends improvements to requirements)• Integrated standard modeling capability (LML and SysML capability integrated; Hierarchy, Tree, Spider, and SysML Requirement diagrams are autogenerated from the document) • Integrated simulation capability (Innoslate has analytical Discrete Event and Monte Carlo simulators that provide cost, schedule, and performance information)• Large scalability (Innoslate Cloud - thousands of users around the world across many servers; Innoslate Enterprise - tested for 500 users and 10 million objects)• Real-Time Collaboration (Real time updates, group chat, and project dashboard)• Platform Independent (Works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, Android, Chrome OS)• Availability (Public Cloud @ innoslate.com, NIPRNet on NSERC, SIPRNet on NSERC, Amazon GovCloud, Amazon AWS)
