    In Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) there is yet no converged terminology. The term 'system model' is used in different contexts in literature. In this study we elaborated the definitions and usages of the term 'system model', to find a common definition. We analyzed 104 publications in depth for their usage and definition as well as their meta-data e.g., the publication year and publication background to find some common patterns. While the term is gaining more interest in recent years, it is used in a broad range of contexts for both analytical and synthetic use cases. Based on this, three categories of system models have been defined and integrated into a more precise definition.
