E-Books →Model-Based Systems Engineering and Requirements Definition

Author, Air Force veteran, and Chief Systems Engineer Dennis Hansen draws on 60 years of experience managing full system lifecycles across military, government, and private sectors. This foundation drives a practical approach to understanding how design and operations drive engineering success. First, learn the end-user definition of the system function (i.e., the mission), before identifying capabilities needed to perform this function. The book then explains the transition from capabilities to activities and functional model views, and the associated requirement definitions. From there, you will learn how modeling can shift from architecture to SysML design views, continuing with both model and requirement definitions. Finally, you'll discover how models can be used to aid generation and refinement of test plans and procedures as the system evolves, and how these models support ongoing system sustainment and improvement.
