Systems modeling language

<p>The systems modeling language (SysML) is a <a href="/facts/General-purpose_modeling/yuqPSP7t">general-purpose modeling</a> language for <a href="/facts/Systems_engineering/gFwRmkDp">systems engineering</a> applications. It supports the specification, <a href="/facts/Analysis/heFlRrYd">analysis</a>, <a href="/facts/Design/kR4GNeja">design</a>, <a href="/facts/Verification_and_validation/hgqysrzb">verification and validation</a> of a broad range of systems and <a href="/facts/System_of_systems/6cp3tlKF">systems-of-systems</a>.
</p><p>SysML was originally developed by an <a href="/facts/Open_source/7X9rCdz4">open source</a> specification project, and includes an open source license for distribution and use. SysML is defined as an extension of a subset of the <a href="/facts/Unified_Modeling_Language/3tlNS0tH">Unified Modeling Language</a> (UML) using <a href="/facts/Profile_(UML)/RCIFNpHE">UML's profile mechanism</a>. The language's extensions were designed to support systems engineering activities.
