[en] The research presented in this paper discusses the different understandings of function which hamper shared functional modelling. Function models proposed in literature from various disciplines are then analysed, in order to identify the different inherent functional modelling perspectives. The paper concludes that in order to support shared functional modelling and to support cross-disciplinary system development, these different functional modelling perspectives need to be linked.
