A requirement is updated.
A sensor choice changes.
A test still checks the old behavior.
How can an engineering team tell whether its system description remains consistent?
The Practical Handbook of Model-Based Systems Engineering shows how to connect the decisions that matter: stakeholder needs, requirements, architecture, behavior, interfaces, constraints, and verification evidence. It takes you beyond isolated diagrams toward a model that supports clear engineering questions and disciplined review.
The learning path follows an automated water pumping and storage system. What begins as a straightforward fill-and-stop function develops into a richer case involving signals, controller logic, operating states, fault conditions, physical exchanges, and change requests. Each chapter builds on the earlier model instead of starting a new, unrelated example.
You will learn to:
• Establish mission objectives, stakeholders, system boundaries, assumptions, and lifecycle scenarios.
• Develop verifiable requirements with explicit conditions, acceptance criteria, and traceability.
• Distinguish logical functions from physical architecture, and identify missing interface relationships.
• Model actions, operating states, transitions, constraints, and abnormal behavior.
• Connect design responsibilities to planned verification, validation questions, and evidence records.
• Review model consistency, manage changes, and investigate gaps that attractive diagrams may hide.
Across twelve chapters, the book combines accessible explanations with worked examples, textual modeling excerpts, conceptual diagrams, exercises, review questions, and practical milestones. A complete project chapter brings the workflow together. The glossary and appendices include model-review guidance, verification planning and evidence templates, a worked change-impact workshop, and a concise modeling quick reference.
Designed for engineering students, beginners with technical interests, and practitioners moving from document-based work toward coordinated system models, the handbook introduces key concepts before detailed notation. Its demonstrations are educational: they do not imply a certified physical installation, completed equipment testing, or independently executed validation of every modeling listing.
If you want to understand not just how to describe a system, but how to question the relationships and evidence behind that description, get your copy and work through the practical case study from mission to verification.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
