16. www.sparxsystems.com Conclusion Very slow adoption <1% of total userbase Early Adopters, mainly SysML Evaluators, SysML Practitioners, not enough ‘real customers’ Food for thought to consider to broaden adoption to the mainstream Tool interoperability between SysML-capable tools, simulators, analysers and repositories (not JUST SysML model vendors) – AP233 Process & Frameworks - OOSEM

17. www.sparxsystems.com Conclusion… Food for thought… Maturity of the language – SysML 1.1 RTF efforts at the OMG UML has enjoyed 10+years to develop its ubiquity – does SysML need just as much time?
