• Model

A mathematical representation of a System or a System of Systems, which is used to simulate its behaviour.

• Wrapp

In SoSTrades, a Wrapp refers to a SosWrap that is a model wrapper for SoSTrades application

• Process

In SoSTrades, a group of SoSDisciplines interacting together.

• Usecase

In SosTrades, allows to define a set of input variables for a study and to run this study with thus values.

• Coupling

In SoSTrades and Gemseo, coupling means associating output variables of a model to the input variables of another model.

• Namespace

In SoSTrades namespaces allows to add prefixes in front of the variable names in order to avoid unwanted matches of variables and to define a data tree breakdown

• Gemseo

Generic Engine for Multi-disciplinary Scenarios, Exploration and Optimisation: model simulation Python library.

• MDA

Multidisciplinary Analysis.

• MDO

Multidisciplinary Design Optimisation.

• Study

In SoSTrades, an instantiation of a process.

• SoS
