Anyone know of good SysML books.

And also, there does not seem to be much on SysML in these forum...and I missing something.

You're probably right in your observation. Not much going on. So you need to stick with Google :-/

Thanks for the reply.

Can I take this opertunity to ask 2 questions:

I started with a evaluation copy of EA and just bought a license. However, the documentation tell me that I need to 'remove' my current installation of EA nd re-install the new copy that I download from a URL povided by share-it. Question is will my models created in evaluation copy be retained.

Also I have create some SysML 'requirment' elements, but it only shows firstline (limited words) or the text. How can I show that whole text in my diagrams.

Thanks in advance.

First... Yes, your current models will be fine. There is no difference whatsoever in the models themselves, only the software.

Second... I really don't know. Take a look at the EA menus or help file for information on resizing or truncating text fields. I suspect EA will treat your SysML entieies just like most other elements in this regard. [Internally the SysML elements are various UML elements that EA stereotypes to fit the SysML profile.]

I could be wrong on the SysML thing though. Perhaps one of the other members will provide confirmation or correction as appropriate.

The OMG website (www.omgsysml.org)has a tutorial and a number of papers that should help.  There is also a yahoo discussion group (groups.yahoo.com/group/OMGSysML)that you can try.
