This paper discusses the topic of functional behaviour representations from a data exchange point of view. The motivation comes from our work with developing a standard information model for systems engineering data exchange — ISO 10303-233. In this setting it is not sufficient that the exchanged model displays the same behaviour as the original one. When possible, the structure of the original specification shall be maintained. The paper reviews behaviour formalisms identified as being relevant to systems engineering and discusses different options for supporting the behaviour formalisms in the ISO10303-233 systems engineering data exchange information model. The structure of the functional behaviour part of the current version of the information model is also outlined.
