Systems Engineering Group
The Systems Engineering Group’s research is focused on achieving successful systems in today’s increasingly complex world. The research encompasses several related themes:
- Understanding and characterising the nature of the increasing systems complexity both internal to the system (e.g. Highly Integrated Systems; Systems with increasing levels of Autonomy) and in its external inter-relationships (e.g. Systems of Systems; Networked Systems).
- Understanding and characterising the implications of these increasing complexities on our ability to successfully engineer and manage systems through their lifecycles, including issues of certification, acceptance, dependability, etc.
- Developing systems engineering approaches for achieving successful systems and systems projects in the face of these complexities.
