Operational Domain Model - Setting Context

This Internal Block diagram depicts a user-defined usage of the diagram type, which depicts the system in the context of its environment.  The «system» and «external» stereotypes are user-defined and not specified in SysML, but help the System Engineer describe the system of interest relative to its environment.

An example of a SysML conceptual diagram in Enterprise Architect.

Enterprise Architect also allows the conventional symbols of the SysML to be replaced by more appealing and meaningful images that assist in the acceptance of the diagram by non-technical audiences.

This change of element appearance can be applied at a (default) global level or at a diagram specific level allowing alternative presentations to be created for different audiences.
