Specifying Some Key SE Training Artifacts

  • Conference paper
Complex Systems Design & Management

Abstract

Systems Engineering (SE) training is increasing in academic curriculum to satisfy the growing need for engineers aware of systems perspective. This training of a systems perspective is achieved by the formalization of selected best practices into a mature corpus with the expected objective to make SE a recognized engineering discipline for any specific curriculum. However, one major training difficulty is to infuse multi-disciplinary views of a system as a whole, beyond teaching the related standardized engineering processes. Our training practice leads us to formalize the specification process as one basic driver to rationally guide both teaching and learning SE basics.
