2
Learning Objectives Identify the applications for systems engineering Overview of the systems engineering process Introduce the basic activities of the process Evaluating systems in terms of their effectiveness Material provided is a necessary prerequisite to the information presented later
3
Case Study: Elevator System Apply Systems Engineering Concepts and Process to a ‘Simple’, Understood System.
4
Operational Concept
5
External Systems Diagram IDEFØ Model Designed to model: Decisions Actions Activities Help organize the analysis of a system and promote good communication between the analyst and customer

9
Define the Problem Vary in breadth from operational to institutional Methods of identifying problems: Traditional operational studies Regional transportation and land-use studies Air quality assessments Coordination with other agencies input from local politicians
10
Inventory of System PHYSICALORGANIZATIONAL Roadway network Operating agencies Existing surveillance and control systems Funding sources Existing information dissemination systems Political and agency jurisdictions

12
Establish Institutional Framework Critical step in process Needed at three levels Interagency Intra-agency Other stakeholders Input identifying problems and developing goals
13
Interagency MPOs Highway/public works Transit Law enforcement Emergency services Turnpike/toll road authorities Port authorities State and federal emergency management agencies
14
Intra-agency Planning Administrative Construction Design Operations Maintenance
15
Other Stakeholders Major traffic generators Utility companies Politicians Media Private transportation providers

17
Building Coalitions Identify “champions” “Top-down” or “bottom-up” support Find individuals critical to success Key individuals with knowledge and authority Present throughout entire process Use existing institutional frameworks
18

19
Establish Goals and Objectives Describe what system is to accomplish Directly related to specific problems Goals => long-range and broad Objectives => measurable and specific
20
Example of Goals and Objectives IDENTIFIED PROBLEM Incidents => primary source of congestion SYSTEM GOAL Reduce impacts of incidents SYSTEM OBJECTIVES Detect all incidents within 2 minutes Reduce clearance time by 5 minutes

22
Establish Performance Criteria Judging performance of system System achieving design objectives Measures of performance Qualitative Quantitative
23
Example of Performance Criteria - Incident Management Objective: Detect all incidents within 2 minutes Average detection time % of incidents detected in 2 minutes Objective: Provide first response within 15 minutes Average response time % of incidents responded to in 15 minutes Objective: Reduce clearance time by 5 minutes Average clearance time before system implemented Average clearance time after system implemented % of incidents where clearance time reduced by 5 minutes

25
Define Functional Requirements Features needed by system to accomplish objectives Independent of technology or architecture Describes what system does, not how!
26
Example of Functional Requirements Incident Management Identify incidents Identify location of incident Identify impacts of incident Identify characteristics of incident Formulate response actions Identify necessary emergency vehicle response Select incident information for dissemination to travelers Identify traffic control strategies Initiate and Monitor response Provide response procedures to agencies Monitors response

28
Framework for achieving system objectives Example: Function: Incident detection Architecture:Architecture: Surveillance system Detection algorithm Communication system
29
Benefits from Planning System Architecture Minimizes redundant systems Promotes efficient use of equipment, staff, and resources Permits easy expansion and modernization Facilitates information sharing
30
System Architecture Levels Functional Requirements => what system is supposed to do Logical architecture => what information flows between components Physical architecture => where function occurs and who is responsible for performing it
31
“Open” System Architecture Designed with standard data interfaces Not vender specific Benefits: Keeps system from being obsolete More compatible with ITS technologies

33
Identify and Screen Technology Meets performance and reliability standard defined by architecture Sources of information: Evaluation studies and reports Literature Demonstration Site visits
34
Evaluating Technologies Interaction with system Impacts on physical configuration of system Expandability and flexibility Life-cycle costs: Procurement, installation, and construction Operating and maintenance Replacement and expansion costs Operations and maintenance Iterative process

36
Develop Deployment Plan Outline how system is implemented Elements: Problems and opportunities to be addressed Institutional arrangements Goals and objectives Functional requirements and architecture Technology options Include implementation plan
37
Elements of Implementation Plan Goals and objectives Laws, ordinances, etc. Start-up procedures Adding functions Organizational and reporting structure Agency responsibilities Operating procedures Communications protocols / procedures Staffing requirements Hours of operation Training Maintenance Budget
38
Procurement Approaches Sole-source a contract is awarded to a named supplier without any competition for the project Engineering / contractor A single contract is awarded to the lowest responsive bidder to a specific request by the highway agency Two-step A formal technical prequalification process is added to the engineer/contractor approach System management A system manager is hired to perform the system design, software development, and system integration activities Design / build A single entity is responsible for all of the work associated with deploying a system
