Course Overview

  • This course teaches the basics of developing and using model queries with the No Magic modeling tools (MagicDraw or Cameo-bundled suites). This course is taught using Cameo Systems Modeler. But the principles can be applied to all No Magic modeling tools.

  • This course is conducted over a three-day structure. Days 1 and 2 have lecture modules followed up with hands-on practical exercises. Day 3 has a short lecture followed by an immersion lab.

    • Day 1 covers developing model queries.

    • Day 2 covers using these queries with the model assessment tools in the software.

    • Day 3 covers the application of these queries to a modeling project.

  • Students taking this course are expected to understand how to develop SysML or UML models. This course does NOT teach the underlying SysML/UML modeling fundamentals.
