Model-based development (MBD), or also known as model-based design is the systems design approach where a simulation is a key component. MBD is becoming a promising approach for designing complicated engineering systems, such as automobiles, aircraft, and mechatronic systems with embedded software. However, the definition of MBD is ambiguous since the design and development process is always conducted with any model. Different engineers use this term in different ways. The discussion on MBD is often inconsistent and seems to be an obstacle to its utilization. This paper clarifies the definition of MBD and the situation of its utilization based on the literature survey. Based on the understanding that the purpose of MBD is to share knowledge among engineers involved in system development through system models, this paper discusses the possibility of a knowledge management framework to enhance the effectiveness of MBD.
