About

Dov Dori is a pioneering figure in model-based systems engineering, best known for creating Object-Process Methodology (OPM), which became ISO 19450. His research integrates conceptual modeling, systems architecture, and requirements engineering, with a focus on making complex systems understandable through a combination of formal graphics and readable text. Dori’s most cited work, "Model-based requirements engineering: Architecting for system requirements with stakeholders in mind" (2017, 31 citations), introduces SysReqs, a method that bridges stakeholder needs and solution architecture through iterative modeling. His earlier paper on "Orthogonal Zig-Zag" (1992, 16 citations) remains influential in computer vision for efficiently extracting straight lines from engineering drawings. Dori also developed Tesperanto (2015, 14 citations), a language that translates formal OPM models into natural-sounding text, enhancing communication between engineers and non-experts. His work on model-based decision-making (2014, 9 citations) and OPM-based task analysis (2021, 4 citations) extends his methodology into human factors and autonomous systems. With over 400 publications and an h-index exceeding 40, Dori’s contributions have shaped how systems are specified, visualized, and analyzed, earning him fellowships in IEEE and INCOSE. His research continues to influence both academia and industry, particularly in complex system design and model-based engineering.
