TOWARDS A STANDARD COMPUTATIONAL REPRESENTATION FOR SYSTEM ENTITY STRUCTURES

System Entity Structure (SES) is a high-level ontology which was introduced for knowledge representation of decomposition, taxonomy and coupling of systems. It has its roots from the systems theory-based approaches to modeling and simulation. SES has been applied for various purposes by modeling and simulation community, however, there still exists a lack of standardized computational representation. This hinders the shareability of SES artifacts and interoperability of SES tools. In search for wider acceptance and eventual standardization, this paper proposes a computational representation and supporting application agnostic tool suite: SESEditor and PESEditor.
