18.4 Data Exchange Mechanisms

Section 18.1.1 discussed the relationship of system models with other tools in a system development environment, and the overlap of data that is created and used in different tools. When two tools whose domains overlap need to share information, data needs to be exchanged to keep the information they hold consistent. A simple example of overlap of information between two models in different tools is a system model in a system modeling tool that defines a mass property for each component, and an analytical tool that computes the total mass based on the individual mass of each component. This section discusses standards and approaches for data exchange between tools.
