Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agile Systems Engineering presents a vision of systems engineering where precise specification of requirements, structure, and behavior meet larger concerns as such as safety, security, reliability, and performance in an agile engineering context. World-renown author and speaker Dr. Bruce Powel Douglass incorporates agile methods and model-based systems engineering (MBSE) to define the properties of entire systems while avoiding errors that can occur when using traditional textual specifications. Dr. Douglass covers the lifecycle of systems development, including requirements, analysis, design, and the handoff to specific engineering disciplines. Throughout, Dr. Douglass couples agile methods with SysML and MBSE to arm system engineers with the conceptual and methodological tools they need to avoid specification defects and improve system quality while simultaneously reducing the effort and cost of systems engineering. - Identifies how the concepts and techniques of agile methods can be effectively applied in systems engineering context - Shows how to perform model-based functional analysis and tie these analyses back to system requirements and stakeholder needs, and forward to system architecture and interface definition - Provides a means by which the quality and correctness of systems engineering data can be assured (before the entire system is built!) - Explains agile system architectural specification and allocation of functionality to system components - Details how to transition engineering specification data to downstream engineers with no loss of fidelity - Includes detailed examples from across industries taken through their stages, including the "Waldo" industrial exoskeleton as a complex system

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design Methodology for Future Products – Data Driven, Agile and Flexible provides an overview of the recent research in the field of design methodology from the point of view of the members of the scientific society for product development (WiGeP - Wissenschaftliche Gesellschaft für Produktenwicklung e.V.). This book aims to contribute to design methods and their implementation for innovative future products. The main focus is the crucial data-driven, agile, and flexible way of working. Four topics are covered in corresponding chapters, Methods for Product Development and Management, Methods for Specific Products and Systems, Facing the Challenges in Product Development and Model-Based Engineering in Product Development. This publication starts with the agile strategic foresight of sustainable mechatronic and cyber-physical systems, moves on to the topics of system generation engineering in development processes, followed by the technical inheritance in data-driven product development. Product improvements are shown via agile experiential learning based on reverse engineering and via combination of usability and emotions. Furthermore, the development of future-oriented products in the field of biomechatronic systems, sustainable mobility systems and in situ sensor integration is shown. The overcoming of challenges in product development is demonstrated through context-adapted methods by focusing on efficiency and effectiveness, as well as designer-centered methods to tackle cognitive bias. Flow design for target-oriented availability of data and information in product development is addressed. Topics of model-based systems engineering are applied to the function-driven product development by linking model elements at all stages and phases of the product. The potential of model-based systems engineering for modular product families and engineering of multidisciplinary complex systems is shown.

Download or read book Engineering Agile Big Data Systems written by Feeney, Kevin and published by River Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To be effective, data-intensive systems require extensive ongoing customisation to reflect changing user requirements, organisational policies, and the structure and interpretation of the data they hold. Manual customisation is expensive, time-consuming, and error-prone. In large complex systems, the value of the data can be such that exhaustive testing is necessary before any new feature can be added to the existing design. In most cases, the precise details of requirements, policies and data will change during the lifetime of the system, forcing a choice between expensive modification and continued operation with an inefficient design. Engineering Agile Big-Data Systems outlines an approach to dealing with these problems in software and data engineering, describing a methodology for aligning these processes throughout product lifecycles. It discusses tools which can be used to achieve these goals, and, in a number of case studies, shows how the tools and methodology have been used to improve a variety of academic and business systems.

Download or read book Sise written by Daniel Cerone and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-03-31 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systems engineering and the concepts it employs enables projects to be executed on-time, on-budget, and within scope. However, the processes and methods covered by systems engineering are typically not followed as prescribed. This overburdens leaner organizations with processes that cannot be built into a project's labor estimate. Organizations utilize many of the concepts in systems engineering but often in an incorrect or incomplete manner. Academia often creates new processes and methods that are theoretically viable but difficult to implement due to lack of resources or understanding. Leaner organizations are facing challenges that warrant systems engineering but require an emphasis on more simplistic development approaches.To reduce the issues uncovered during the use of the "Vee" model and to create a more agile approach for leaner organizations, more flexible, relatable, and understandable processes and techniques are required. The Snap-in Systems Engineering method, introduced herein, is a methodology that follows the systems engineering "Vee" but focuses on an agile approach to architecting with an emphasis on practical knowledge and ease of project application. The method allows flexibility by empowering a team to implement a design strategy based upon the type of project being undertaken. Each snap-in option minimizes systems engineering knowledge yet emphasizes measurable results.The Snap-in Systems Engineering or SISE method (pronounced "cease") for lean organizations will be introduced herein, a review of the SISE method will be provided, and a real-world case study of its use will be explored. The goal of the explanations and examples provided are to highlight the benefits of time-savings, cost-savings, positive project outcome and to provide small organizations engineering tools for projects of a certain complexity. "SISE is systems engineering for the rest of us."
