This module can only be taken as part of the Systems Engineering MSc
 
To allow students to explore the problem space using a pluralistic SE problem-exploration approach, modelling the nature of the problem and allowing an initial logical architecture and requirements to be created and reviewed. This will draw on methods, tools and techniques studied during ISSE

What you will learn

On successful completion of the course you will be able to:

 

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of Enterprise modelling and SE tools and methods to an example problem space
  • Formulate and apply a systems thinking approach to suitable areas of consideration.
  • Evaluate the challenges of remote group working and other aspects of the professional practice of SE in the conduct of problem analysis and concept definition life cycle processes

Core content


Unit 1: Problem Exploration

•       Analyse problem situation and its context/environment
•       Understand the nature of enterprise systems and how they relate to a problem situation
•       Apply SE tools and techniques to explore problem situations

Unit 2: Concept Definition: Mission Analysis (MA)

•       Evaluate the application and development of scenario modelling and OA methods to quantify a problem context and support problem exploration
•       Evaluate applicability of SE tools to support MA

Unit 3: Reflection

•     Consider the value of high level, problem focused modelling might have in helping to identify relationships, issues and possible problem in complex real world situations

•     Consider how the problem focused modelling in this module might integrate into the initiation and conduct of an SE lifecycle
