Abstract

Classical organization in disciplinary silos in the industry reaches its limits to manage complexity: problems are discovered too late and the lack of communication between experts prevents the early emergence of solutions. This is why it is urgent to provide new collaborative methods and ways to integrate various engineering fields, early in and all along the development cycle. In this context, we are particularly interested in the possible exchanges between two engineering fields: system architecture design and safety analysis. The questions are: how can one ensure that the parties involved are speaking about the same system? And which concepts can synchronize several engineering fields? First we present a use case: a system embedded in a helicopter. Second we present the concepts that we define to implement synchronization of models. Finally we give our feedbacks, limits and related works.
