System modelling techniques have evolved to assist engineers with managing information. However, nowadays, it is rarely focusing on modular product families. This paper introduces a meta-model based on an ontology, which improves the creation and management of modular product family and its occurring data. The meta-model is presented using the example of a Passenger Service Unit (PSU).en2732-527X202425132522Cambridge University Presshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/meta-modelmodel-based systems engineering (MBSE)modellingproduct familiesTechnology::620: EngineeringComputer Science, Information and General Works::004: Computer SciencesTechnology::658: MarketingConference Paper10.15480/882.968110.1017/pds.2024.25410.15480/882.9681Conference Paper
