However, as automation systems increase in complexity, the development of condition monitoring software becomes a challenging task that requires extensive knowledge from multiple engineering disciplines. In this context, the identification and specification of condition monitoring software requirements play a key role. Neglecting these tasks often results in costly problems during later stages of systems development. Currently, means to support interdisciplinary requirements engineering within condition monitoring software development are missing. In particular, there is a need for a systematic process that supports modeling condition monitoring requirements. In this paper, we present our solution-a profile based on the extension of the SysML, which is commonly used to engineer requirements in automation systems. The profile allows specification of condition monitoring software requirements and thus enables a more domain-specific requirements engineering approach. We illustrate this approach on a heat exchanger condition monitoring system, explain the particular modeling steps, and present lessons learned.enconference paper
