The system integration state (COSE Lesson 52)

This module covers system integration covering what happens in the state and the prerequisites for successful system integration that must be performed in the earlier (upschedule) states of the SDP

Contents

  1. The role of systems engineers in the System Integration State of the SDP
  2. The nature of the problems faced in the state
  3. The tools, methodologies and techniques available to solve those problems
  4. The critical applied systems engineering tasks which systems and software engineers must perform in these states
  5. Awareness of the factors involved in integration of components into a system.
  6. Integration of a system into its adjacent systems.
  7. Design for integration.
  8. Problem solving across subsystem boundaries.
