Master Thesis, 30 HP: Interface Roadmaps in a Model Based Reference Architecture
Technology, Data & Digital · Software & Web Development · Software Engineering · Web Development
In short
Students are invited to undertake a 30 HP Master Thesis project focusing on developing and analyzing interface roadmaps within a model-based reference architecture at Saab in Sweden. The project involves literature review, stakeholder interviews, method proposal, and application to concrete interfaces.
Responsibilities
- Perform a literature review on interface evolution, interface contracts and product line architectures.
- Interview key stakeholders to identify important logical interfaces and pain points.
- Propose a method and metamodel for 'interface roadmaps' linked to the Surveillance 4+1 views and RAR.
- Apply the method to 1-2 concrete interfaces, modeling their evolution over a 3-5 year horizon.
- Analyze how different interface roadmap choices affect modularity, reuse and integration.
- Optionally, prototype simple tool support for visualizing and maintaining interface roadmaps.
Requirements
- Final stage of Engineering Design, Engineering Physics, Mechatronics or equivalent.
- About to begin a 30 hp thesis project.
- Interest in system and software architecture.
- Interest in model-based systems engineering.
- Interest in product line/platform development.
- Must pass a security vetting.
Desired Qualifications
- Experience with SysML.
- Experience with Enterprise Architect.
- Experience with Python.
- Experience with a lightweight web/visualization tool.
Benefits
- Opportunity to collaborate with experienced engineers and specialists.
- Gain invaluable practical experience.
- Make a tangible contribution to company growth and development.
- Support and guidance to translate theoretical knowledge into practical solutions.
