1、Chapter 2 Methodological Frameworks and Systems Engineering Processes(方法论框架和系统工程过程),2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,2,There are a number of frameworks(框架、体系)that we might use to characterize(描绘)systems engineering efforts.We will describe some of them in this chapter.Without a sound and well-unde

4、rimarily concerned with the functional and physical architectures that lead to implementation architectures and the resulting detailed design of systems of all types.Design and development is very important,even though the acquisition or production process also depends upon success in the definition
5、 and deployment(部署)phases of the life cycle.Design and development is a creative process through which system products,presumed to be responsive to client needs and requirements,are conceptualized or specified,manufactured or otherwise produced,and fielded or implemented in such a way that they can
6、be maintained over time.,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,4,2.1 INTRODUCTION,There are four primary ingredients in our definition of design and development,and they apply to software design as well as to the design of hardware and physical systems.Development results from specifications(规格)or arch
7、itecture for a product or system.Development is a creative process.Development activity includes design effort,which is conceptual in nature.A successful design and development must be broadly responsive to client needs and requirements.,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,5,2.1 INTRODUCTION,Good sys

12、e will discuss the systems acquisition,or production,process in terms of a number of steps and phases that may comprise this process.,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,8,2.2 METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORKS FOR SYSTEMS ACQUISITION OR PRODUCTION,In this section we present and explain the complete systems e

14、f three stages or life cycles,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,9,2.2 METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORKS FOR SYSTEMS ACQUISITION OR PRODUCTION,We envision(设想)a three-performance level hierarchy(三层次结构性能)for systems engineering phased efforts,such as shown in Figure 2.2.This three-level structured hierarchy c
15、omprises a systems engineering life cycle and is one of the ingredients of systems engineering methodology.It involves:System definitionSystem developmentSystem deployment,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,10,2.2 METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORKS FOR SYSTEMS ACQUISITION OR PRODUCTION,We illustrate forward
16、flow of information,and feedback(反馈)from one phase to the other.Usually,this is needed as a situation in which information only flows in one direction from one phase to a subsequent phase will not allow for iterative improvement.(迭代改进),2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,11,2.2 METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWO
17、RKS FOR SYSTEMS ACQUISITION OR PRODUCTION,It is generally also very desirable to allow for learning as the life-cycle process is iteratively repeated(反复迭代).Figure 2.3 illustrates three different information flow patterns.Generally,the one with learning and feedback is to be preferred.We will,however
18、,discuss some extensions of the basic waterfall life-cycle model,illustrated on the left side of Figure 2.3.,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,12,2.2 METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORKS FOR SYSTEMS ACQUISITION OR PRODUCTION,As we shall soon discuss,this three-phase life cycle may be expanded into a life cycl
19、e comprised(包含)of a larger number of phases.Generally the number of phases is in the vicinity(周围地区)of seven,although it may contain quite a few more than seven phases,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,13,2.2 METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORKS FOR SYSTEMS ACQUISITION OR PRODUCTION,Regardless of(不管、尽管)the way
20、 in which the systems engineering life-cycle process is characterized,and regardless of the type of product or system or service that is being designed,all characterizations of the phases of the systems engineering life cycles will necessarily involve:Formulation of the Problem(问题的规划)in which the ne
21、eds and objectives of a client group are identified,and potentially acceptable design alternatives,or options,are identified or generated.Analysis of the Alternatives(变量的分析)in which the impacts of the identified design options are identified and evaluated.Interpretation(解释、说明)and Selection in which
22、the options,or alternative courses of action,are compared by means of an evaluation of the impacts of the alternatives and how these are valued by the client group.The needs and objectives of the client group are necessarily used as a basis for evaluation.The most acceptable alternative is selected
23、for implementation or further study in a subsequent phase of systems engineering.,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,14,2.2 METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORKS FOR SYSTEMS ACQUISITION OR PRODUCTION,Our model of the steps of the logic structure of the systems process,shown in Figure 2.4,is based upon this conc
24、eptualization.As we shall also indicate in much more detail later,these three steps can be disaggregated(分解)into a number of others.Each of these steps of systems engineering is accomplished for each of the life cycle phases.,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,15,2.2 METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORKS FOR SY
25、STEMS ACQUISITION OR PRODUCTION,As we have noted,there are generally three different systems engineering life cycles.These relate to the three different stages of effort that are needed to result in a competitive product or service in the marketplace:Research,development,test,and evaluation(RDT&E)Sy

30、 where there is overlap(重叠),actually in an n-dimensional space,that responsible actions should be implemented to bring about programs for all three life cycles.This suggests that the needs of one life cycle should not be considered independently of the other two.,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,1

34、 2.7 illustrates this framework of steps(步骤),phases(方面),and stages(阶段)as a three-dimensional cube.This is one three-dimensional framework,in the form of a morphological(形态学)box,for systems engineering.,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,22,2.2 METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORKS FOR SYSTEMS ACQUISITION OR PRO
35、DUCTION,A methodology(方法学)is an open set of procedures for problem solving.Consequently(因此、所以),a methodology involves a set of methods,a set of activities,and a set of relations between the methods and the activities.To use a methodology we must have an appropriate set of methods.Generally,these inc

42、 Systems Engineering,FormulationProblem Definition.(问题的定义)This step involves isolating(分离),quantifying(量化),and clarifying(阐述)the need that creates the problem and describing the set of environmental factors that constrains alterables(约束变量)for the system to be developed.It involves identifying a set
43、of needs,alterables,and constraints associated with the issue formulation.Value System Design.(价值系统设计)This step involves selection of the set of objectives or goals that guides the search for alternatives.Value system design enables determination of the multidimensional attributes or decision criter
44、ia for selecting the most appropriate system.It involves the identification and validation(确认)of a set of objectives and objectives measures.System Synthesis.(系统综合)This step involves searching for,or hypothesizing(假定、猜测),a set of alternative courses of action or options.Each alternative must be desc
45、ribed in sufficient detail to permit analysis of the impacts of implementation and subsequent evaluation and interpretation with respect to the objectives.As part of this step,we identify a number of potential alternatives and associated alternatives measures.,2023/6/23,2007 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING,27,(
46、1)Logical Steps of Systems Engineering,AnalysisSystem Analysis and Modeling(系统分析与建模).As a part of this step,we determine specific impacts(确定具体的影响因素)or consequences of the alternatives(变量结果)that were specified as relevant to the issue under consideration by the value system.These impacts may relate t

49、equences of the alternatives and,thereby,interpreting the alternatives in terms of the extent to which they achieve objectives.The alternatives are identified in system synthesis and subsequently modeled and refined in the analysis steps of effort,in accordance with satisfaction of objectives associ
