Study Notes
- The Design Definition process in system engineering includes several activities.
- Prepare for design definition: This involves obtaining the necessary SE Handbook for personal use only, and identifying design drivers and strategies.
- Determine necessary technologies and system characteristics categories.
- Examine system architecture, establish design approach, and create the system design.
- Allocate system requirements to design elements and conceive new designs if necessary.
- Transform architectural entities and relationships into design elements and controls enablers.
- Design definition strategy/approach, system viewpoints, and models are created as typical outputs.
- System architecture description, interface definition, and verified/validated system architecture and design are typical inputs.
- Analyze design, including interfaces, and capture system design description using methods and frameworks.
- Evaluate system design for suitability, consistency, and value to stakeholders.
- Parametric design and trade-off analysis techniques can be used for exploration and balanced solutions.
- Analyze system design properties and characteristics during evaluation.
