2.4.2 Principled systems engineering for the planet

Abstract: The discipline of systems engineering continues to mature, but no systems engineer has ever been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. In their subtle way the Nobel committee have been encouraging economists, politicians and others to put more attention to the global socio‐technical challenges that face the planet today. This paper will explore the essence of the systems engineering framework and suggest ways in which systems engineering practitioners, researchers and educators can rise to meet these challenges.

“…It provides processes, methods and tools to support the success of a project, addressing all project life cycle phases from initiating, executing and closing a project. Similar to OI, a key phase is the planning phase, which includes defining the objectives, scope, resources and project partners (PMI, 2013;Haskins, 2006). Particularly, the analysis and engagement of stakeholders is crucial for PM (Aladpoosh et al, 2012) but far from trivial (Gattringer et al, 2017).…”

“…The v-diagram (also known as the v-model) is one such way of designing complex systems. The general concept of the vdiagram can be seen in Figure 1, it consists of three parts: decomposition & definition; integration & testing; and verification & validation (Haskins 2007). The general concept has been adapted many times for use in both systems engineering and software engineering to design products, with each side of the v broken down into stages describing what needs to be done on.…”

“…For example, systems engineers are to identify, clarify, and document the drivers/ requirements in the earliest phase of a project life cycle for a system according to the handbook of Systems Engineering [3]. In this perspective, identification of key values is one of the earliest tasks in design or analysis of a system of systems.…”
