In addition to the form of default value specifications that SysML supports on properties of a block (with an optional “=” string following the rest of a property definition), SysML supports an additional form of value specification for properties using initialValue compartments on an internal block diagram.

- Description
- A Block is a modular unit that describes the structure of a system or element.
- SysML blocks provide a general-purpose capability to describe the architecture of a system.
- SysML does not restrict the kind of system or system element that may be described by a block.
- Connectors owned by SysML blocks may be used to define relationships between parts or other properties of the same containing block.
- SysML excludes variations of associations in UML in which navigable ends can be owned directly by the association.
- SysML establishes four basic classifications of properties belonging to a SysML Block or ValueType.
- On a block definition diagram, a part property is shown by a black diamond symbol on an association.
- SysML also supports properties with shared aggregation, as shown by a white diamond symbol on an association.
- In addition to the form of default value specifications that SysML supports on properties of a block (with an optional “=” <value-specification> string following the rest of a property definition), SysML supports an additional form ..
- Context-specific values are represented in the SysML metamodel by means of the InstanceValue subtype of UML ValueSpecification.
- If a property belonging to a block has a specification of initial values for any of the properties belonging to its type, then the default value of that property must be a UML InstanceValue element.
- Selected slots of the referenced instance specification must contain value specifications for the individual property values specified in a corresponding initialValues compartment.
