From Systems Engineering to Enterprise Systems Engineering

Kenneth C. Hoffman · Auerbach Publications eBooks · 2013

Systems and the enterprises they supported were viewed as relatively independent entities and were treated that way. First, industrial engineers and then systems engineers have been quite successful in dealing with them as well- bounded systems with repetitive and predictable operational characteristics. These system characteristics are changing in significant and fundamental ways. There is a growing trend toward the concept of net- centricity and connectivity in a global economy as indicated by a study conducted for the army by the National Academy of Engineering on “network science”. Concepts of general systems theory, or system science, were utilized in the origin and continued evolution of systems engineering. Although useful, these concepts were often highly abstract and needed to be incorporated in a systems engineering discipline to support practical applications. The applications of industrial engineering to such areas as public works and manufacturing clearly drew on system principles and are fundamental efforts for the discipline of systems engineering.

Site systems engineering: Systems engineering management plan

M.L. Grygiel · OSTI OAI (U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific and Technical Information) · 1996

The Site Systems Engineering Management Plan (SEMP) is the Westinghouse Hanford Company (WHC) implementation document for the Hanford Site Systems Engineering Policy, (RLPD 430.1) and Systems Engineering Criteria Document and Implementing Directive, (RLID 430.1). These documents define the US Department of Energy (DOE), Richland Operations Office (RL) processes and products to be used at Hanford to implement the systems engineering process at the site level. This SEMP describes the products being provided by the site systems engineering activity in fiscal year (FY) 1996 and the associated schedule. It also includes the procedural approach being taken by the site level systems engineering activity in the development of these products and the intended uses for the products in the integrated planning process in response to the DOE policy and implementing directives. The scope of the systems engineering process is to define a set of activities and products to be used at the site level during FY 1996 or until the successful Project Hanford Management Contractor (PHMC) is onsite as a result of contract award from Request For Proposal DE-RP06-96RL13200. Following installation of the new contractor, a long-term set of systems engineering procedures and products will be defined for management of the Hanford Project. The extent to which each project applies the systems engineering process and the specific tools used are determined by the project`s management.

People want to create a better world and planet; however, where, and how to start remains the question. Systems Engineering’s problem-solving methodology can help with its ability to answer multiple questions along with connecting actions and impacts. This book uses the Systems Engineering problem-solving methodology to frame how each answer impacts the planet when multiple actions are strung together no matter where they take place. Systems Engineering: Influencing Our Planet and Reengineering Our Actions illustrates a hierarchical Systems Engineering view of the world with each individual in mind as a link in the chain. It uses an Industrial Engineering framework for action implementations and identifies humans’ interconnected actions. The book discusses the implementation of the Systems Engineering problem-solving methodology and leverages existing concepts of environmental sustainability. A template is present for personal actions for environment social responsibility using a Systems Engineering problem-solving approach and focuses on the foundational use of the trademarked DEJI Systems Model® for action design, evaluation, justification, and integration. This book is a perfect read for all academic disciplines and all engineering fields, as well as business and management fields. It reminds us of the Environmental Foundation of NAE’s 14 Grand Challenges and the part we can play.

Systems Engineering is a fast growing field in the engineering braches. It can be applied to anything that one can be described as a system. To show this, two different projects are being directed through the systems engineering department at UTEP. In the Student Busing Project, UTEP was granted funding from the Green Fund in order to pursuit the start of a busing system on campus. Research on other busing systems, as well as the effects and costs of adopting a busing system were researched. Surveys were completed, and additional research was done to see the environmental effects the buses would help reduce. From this information, DoDAF views were mapped out and created to show the internal architecture for the student busing system. These findings have been presented to the Sun Metro busing company as well as the UTEP student body. Further work is being done and the optimal result will be a functioning busing system for the UTEP campus. The second project is to go through, and correct any errors in the IBM manual for Rational Rhapsody. To do this, a class over object orientation is required. This class tackles the basic understanding and elements of systems engineering. Through these understandings it is learned how to create UML diagrams Using Visual Paradigm for UML. From this step the learning of the IBM Rational Rhapsody takes place, in order to be able to create DoDAF diagrams. Further work is needed before completion of this class.

The primary goal of Systems Engineering is to develop a solution that best satisfies the needs of stakeholders. Validation is the process of checking if the developed solution satisfies the needs of the stakeholders. Current validation practices are heuristics-based and lack mathematical foundations, which may lead to suboptimal validation strategies. To ensure the correct and accurate validity of the system of interest, several artifacts throughout the system lifecycle must be considered, including but not limited to stakeholders’ needs, requirements, design, verification, etc. This paper characterizes validation in terms of these artifacts by proposing novel theoretical insights using Propositional logic as the foundation. The mechanism of representation for stakeholders’ needs plays a significant role in performing validation. This paper discusses the challenges associated with using existing textual stakeholder needs and preference functions with respect to validation in relation to the theoretical insights proposed. In addition, this paper highlights how the previously developed Modal preference logic can be used as an effective mechanism to develop a normative approach to validation in Systems Engineering.

This book is intended for students, teachers, researchers, engineers and project managers wishing to understand and implement systems engineering into their work. Based on numerous bibliographical sources, it provides coherent and accessible information, complemented with numerous illustrations. Systems Engineering will enable the reader to not only understand but also master the development cycle of a system, as well as gain an in-depth understanding of the associated terminology. An introduction to systems theory is presented first, clarifying what is meant by a complex system. The book then outlines systems engineering and one of its components: requirements engineering. A detailed presentation of the downhill activities of the development cycle follows the definition of requirements and the design of systems. Finally, the book explores the upstream activities of the development cycle with the virtual and concrete integration of the system.
