Software engineering has transformed from process-oriented thinking to object-oriented thinking, and this transformation has been proven successful by practice. Being a more general subject than software engineering, systems engineering is dealing with systems that are more and more complex. Since model-based systems engineering(MBSE)adopts systems modeling language, which has evolved from unified modeling language, MBSE is object-oriented systems engineering in nature, and will share the same advantages of objectoriented software Engineering. To develop and apply MBSE methodology, we should comply with the principle of object-oriented thingking.
