In 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. 104 publications have been analyzed 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.

Model-based systems engineering (MBSE); Model informatics and analytics; Model-based collaboration

Engineering, Control and Systems Engineering

Comment: Based on the comments of the reviewers, typographic and grammatical errors have been corrected. ‘Section’ and ‘Figure’ have been capitalized. Additionally, hypothesis 3 has been conjugated as well as its validation. In the conclusion, some comments on the practitioner’s perspective have been added. The definition of Hart has been set in contrast with the new definition.
