Abstract
Over the past few years, research into system modeling has dwindled in favor of other interests in the field of configuration
management. Outside influence, in the form of the emergence of the discipline of software architecture, demands that renewed
attention is paid to system modeling because it places new requirements on, and offers new opportunities to, system modeling.
In this paper we investigate these requirements and opportunities in more detail.
