14. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering

15. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering

16. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering What is a System? Group of Components that work together for a purpose –Service –Product –Process Attributes: discernable manifestations of the components Relationships are links between Components & Attributes

17. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering Components Properties Properties & Behavior of each Component has an influence on the properties & behavior of the set as a whole Properties & Behaviors of each component of the set depends on the properties & behaviors of at least one other component Each possible subset of the components has the two properties listed above: I.E. the components cannot be divided into independent subsets

18. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering When you decompose what do you get?? Components –Structural: Static Elements of a System –Operating: Perform Processing –Flow: Materials and energy or information being altered by system operations

19. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering Relational View (as opposed to System View ) Relations exist between component pairs (though many pairs may share relations) Relation is formed from the imminent qualities of the components (e.g. their essential characteristics) System is s on physical, temporal and spatial arrangement of components Relations imply direct interactions. Systems are defined by the common reference to the entire set of components

20. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering Extra thoughts Relationship orders: –First order: functionally necessary – symbiosis –Second Order: Synergistic (relationship adds to the system performance) –Redundancy replication for purpose of system continuation –Do redundant systems contain more or less information than non-redundant systems?

21. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering How can system be known?? State of a System –Collection of variables that describe a system from a perspective and at specific time –Variation in perspective –Variation in temporal resolution System Engineering Knowledge –Principles –Practices –Perspectives

22. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering Extra Thoughts: How can system be known?? Thought then has objective validity because it is not fundamentally different from the objective reality but is specially suited for the imitation of it. The fundamental nature of neural machinery lies in its power to parallel or model external events. KJW Craik The Nature of Explanation (Cambridge, 1952)

23. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering How is a System Understood ?? Decomposition Analysis Aggregation More than the sum of its parts –Emergent –Self-organizing –Entropic and Enthalpic The thermodynamic function of a system is equivalent to the sum of the internal energy of the system plus the product of its volume multiplied by the pressure exerted on it by its surroundings

24. K.M. Corker, Ph.D.Industrial & Systems Engineering What is a System Life Cycle System Planning and Marketing Research Development Testing and Evaluation System Acquisition & Deployment & Production
