Announcements
The MOSA Alliance is pleased to announce the release of three new products from the MBSE Modeling Standards Committee to advance the interoperability of models. These new products include:
ISTO STANDARD MOSA-IF-S-006: Volume 1: Model Semantic Versioning Standard 1.0
This standard defines requirements for versioning, version numbering, and semantic version numbering of models. It defines criteria for incrementing the major, minor, or patch version numbers of descriptive models to achieve a similar intent to the semantic versioning standard used in the software domain. This standard improves the effectiveness of model sharing by communicating the extent of model changes and their potential impact to users of the models.
ISTO STANDARD MOSA-IF-S-007: Volume 1: Quantities and Units Modeling Standard 1.0
This standard defines requirements for consistent modeling of quantities and units in SysML models and defines a standard library of SysML QuantityKind and Unit elements that extends the ISO 80000 library with additional quantities and units commonly used in the space domain and many other domains. This standard improves model interoperability by ensuring quantities and units are consistently specified for value properties representing physical quantities. The next Volume of the standard will add additional quantities, units, and unit conversions.
ISTO STANDARD MOSA-IF-S-008: Volume 1: Model Security Classification Standard 1.0
This standard defines high-level requirements for marking of descriptive models in MBSE for security classification and dissemination control. This standard improves the consistency of model implementation of markings to comply with applicable guidance. The next Volume of the standard will address more specific requirements for portion marking of models and the interpretation of those portion markings.
These new MOSA products are paving the way for more efficient, reliable, and standardized space systems. Dive in, explore, and join us in shaping the future of space exploration!

Who we are
The Space Systems MOSA Interface Standards Alliance is interested in rapidly developing modular open system approach (MOSA) compliant space system standards that will enable interoperability at key system interfaces. Collaborating with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Industry Standards and Technology Organization (ISTO) will enable the Space Systems MOSA Interface Standards Alliance to leverage agile development methods to expedite the standards development process.
The Space Systems MOSA Interface Standards Alliance is a government-guided collaboration with industry for the purpose of voluntary consensus development of space system interface standards, in accordance with Public Law 104-113, and OMB Circular A-119. Furthermore, in accordance with the MOSA laws specified in the 2015/2017/2022/2021 National Defense Authorization Acts (NDAA), the space system interface specifications will enable and foster interoperability at key system interfaces

What We Do

The Space Systems MOSA Interface Standards Alliance consists of committees and subcommittees developing interoperability standards that meet Enterprise-defined objectives. The collection of standards developed by the alliance will synergistically support Enterprise objectives. By creating standardized interfaces, the Enterprise seeks to benefit from a wider range of industry innovations and bring newer technologies to our warfighters faster. Standardization will also enable and foster the ability of non-traditional companies to enter the established market.
