Es necesario separar el dominio de la necesidad del dominio de la solución a lo largo del proceso de obtención de los Sistemas de Armas. Partir con respuestas preconcebidas sobre la solución no permite identificar las necesidades militares reales a cubrir, entender las alternativas de solución y de entre estas la óptima. La Ingeniería de Sistemas proporciona el marco para conseguir esta separación de dominios, por ello resulta prioritario en los procesos de obtención implantar esta disciplina que además permite tener un enfoque más holístico y sinérgico que integre desde el primer momento la visión de todos los actores. Además ayuda a dar respuesta a la complejidad de forma que las soluciones equilibren factores militares, humanos, económicos, tecnológicos y medioambientales, todos ellos fuertemente interrelacionados.

Systems Engineering is an accepted practice in the space industry with an unstoppable growth and evolution because it brings a multi-disciplinary perspective that is critical to system product innovation, defect reduction and customer satisfaction. A systems engineer is a person who designs space missions and their vehicles by working together with engineers in the necessary disciplines. The technical leadership role of the systems engineer on a project is critical to the success of space projects driven by high safety and performance requirements, that is why demand is soaring for systems engineers in the space industries and government agencies worldwide ( including Spain).

A pressing need for a true Systemic Technical Leadership in High-Tech Compani...Bernardo A. Delicado
Today’s business environment is more complex than ever. The complexity of globalisation and technology is putting demands on leaders of the 21st century, but not just any type of leaders, more than ever before, organisations around the globe trying to address today’s complex challenges or responding to radical change need technical leaders that render old ways of thinking inadequate for our current reality. As a result of that INCOSE’s Vision 2025 identifies the development of Systems Thinking and Technical Leadership as one of seven key areas of Systems Engineering Competency. Systems thinking is critical, as is the ability to continuously scan the environment in search of subtle trends and indicators of disruptive change, and the Technical Leadership role of the systems engineer on a project will be well established as critical to the success of a project. While not all systems engineers are technical leaders, all good technical leaders are systems thinkers, and they may be called systemic technical leaders. Beyond any doubt, and without fear of being mistaken, we can and must categorically affirm that the Systemic Technical leadership will be essential for innovation and transformation in High-Tech companies in a fast-changing world.
Competency is a measure of an individual’s ability in terms of knowledge, skills, and behaviour to perform a given role in the Systems Engineering processes. The competency planning and deployment of Systems Engineering competencies are considered as one key factor in the successful re-industrialisation and digital transformation of Europe.
ISECF can be applied in the context of any application, project, organisation or enterprise for both individual and/or organisational assessment and/or development.
Systems Engineering is a very broad , overarching, and generally applicable engineering discipline. Many types of systems are developed using SE. These include biomedical systems, space vehicle systems, weapon systems, transportation systems, and so on.
Systems Engineering involves the coordination of work performed by engineers from all other engineering disciplines (electrical, mechanical, computer, software, etc.) as required to complete the engineering work on the project/program.

Software Modeling and the Future of Engineering (ICMT/STAF Keynote at York)Jean Bézivin
In the past fifty years the world of engineering has considerably changed. From computer-assisted to software-intensive, most classical and emerging domain engineering fields now heavily draw on some forms of Software Model Engineering (SME) shortly called “Software Modeling”. Starting from a general map of engineering fields, the talk will first outline this important evolution and the progressive shift of SME from the mere support of code production and maintenance to the much broader spectrum of a central practice in most of these current domain engineering fields. In other words the focus of software modeling is rapidly changing from software engineering to engineering software. But what is exactly SME? Historically its definition has been rather fluctuating. The last iteration, since 2000, did not even produce a unique characterization. On the contrary, SME may be viewed as composed as a set of different facets, some of them not even mutually compatible. The talk will describe these various segments of SME, their objective, market, usage characteristics and hopefully convergence of goals. One of these segments, the management of abstract correspondences between models (and of transformations, their operational counterparts) will be for example more particularly detailed and its importance outlined. All these observations will allow to conclude that, at this point of its history and in this state of maturity, software modeling may be seen as an essential contribution to the future of engineering and an outstanding long-term research opportunity.
Less than fifty years ago, the discipline of software engineering was proposed to face the multiple challenges of building and maintaining increasingly complex systems. Moving from the individual creation of small programs to the collective production of complex and evolutionary software systems was rightly identified as a serious problem. But attempts to solve it in a general way have been rather deceiving. The recent tentative of considering most artifacts as models and most operations in the lifecycle as model transformations has not permitted to radically change the way we build, operate and maintain software even if it has allowed a much better understanding of the basic issues. Albeit we did not achieve the ultimate goal of having models everywhere in the software development cycle, the demonstration of the tremendous potential of software modeling has now been firmly established.The subject of engineering has also changed a lot in the lasthalf-century. We realize that computers are now omnipresent and software ubiquitous. We may revisit a lot of beliefs that have been with us in the last decades and start thinking out of the box. We may look for some "unifying theory of engineering" and view software engineering as a specialization of this conceptual framework, with some expected benefits. In other words, we may revisit "software engineering" as a special branch of "engineering software" and show how software model engineering may be broadly used through all the different branches.
To make things concrete, we can consider two broad categories of engineering fields called "support engineering" and "domain engineering". The first category defines a set of technical spaces like service engineering, system engineering, model engineering, constraint engineering, data engineering, process engineering, language engineering, formal methods engineering, and many more. At the opposite of this solution space, we find the problem space with a lot of conventional or emerging domain engineering fields like business, financial, electrical, mechanical, civil, health, telecommunication, avionics, biological and many more. There are many commonalities of domain engineering that would gain to be exposed: starting with the construction of abstract models conforming to some ontology, a second step usually defines some model validation or verification followed by a manufacturing or production step and finally a deployment step intended to augment or transform the real world. The presentation will propose an initial cartography of support and domain engineering, illustrating its possible impact on the organization of research and advanced education. It will also emphasize the important place taken by software model engineering in this possible organization.

This was a fun 40-min presentation that I gave at a youth leadership conference in May 2009 entitled "Careers In Engineering". My audience was comprised middle school and high school students, predominantly from the middle to lower middle-class hispanic students. In addition, I shared extensive examples of great engineering feats created throughout history (not included) as visuals, from sports equipment, buildings, planes, RC toys and historical landmarks. Although I had a great time giving this presentation, there were 2 great learning lessons: (1). tone down the "professional" jargon, (2) be willing to adjust the talk to what the audience is interested in.

Brief Summary
Cyber warfare and electronic warfare are similar in many ways. Electronic warfare is a general tool used to Deny, Disrupt, Destroy, Degrade, and Deceive which are largely achieved through the interactions with enemy’s radio frequency systems. Cyber warfare is similar and more with additional targeted effects on computer systems, networks, and applications. Information operations, however, intend to influence the person sitting behind the keyboard, resulting to wrong decision making.
Col Timothy Presby, Training and Doctrine Command Capabilities Manager of Cyber, Army said in August this year: “We need to be aware that we are very likely going to fight an adversary that is converging using [cyber and electromagnetic activity] integration, ISR and fires across full spectrum conflict, so unless we actually work together and converge our capabilities, we will be left short.”. This shows the importance of being aware and protected in the joint space.
This paper attempts to discuss the significance, seriousness and real threat in the cyber and electronics intelligence joint space. Critical military information can be obtained via cyber means and use by the forces to launch attacks in shortest possible time to cause severe damages to properties and lives.
Radio amateurs provide a pool of technically competent personnel that contribute to information engineering and communications and other technical professions in countries in which it is an established hobby; countries such as Japan and the USA. In the Asia-Pacific region, while Japan has more radio amateurs than any other country, governments of the lesser developed countries tend to ignore amateur radio as a source of the indigenous personnel needed to help provide the benefits of 21st century technology. This paper first addresses the problem of educating good systems engineers by suggesting that potential students be preselected from pools of candidates who show characteristics deemed desirable in systems engineers. The paper then shows that one source of partially trained personnel maybe found among the technical members of the amateur radio community and similar technical hobbies. The paper then discusses some of the technical achievements of amateur radio followed by the twelve engineering roles of amateur radio in the manner of (Sheard 1996) and proposes that there is enough similarity between amateur radio’s technical activities and the role of systems engineering so that amateur radio can provide a source for students with experience in systems engineering activities. The last section of the paper then mentions some amateur radio failures that systems engineering should have prevented and concludes with a discussion on recruiting young systems engineers via amateur radio clubs, some synergy between INCOSE and amateur radio clubs and suggestions for future research

Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

When you see a Space Shuttle , you will notice that there
are two big booster rockets attached to the sides of the
main fuel tank
Why did they use that
dimension in the design
specification ?
8. 8
The US standard railroad gauge (distance between
the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That's an exceedingly
odd number.
Why was that gauge used? Because that's the way
they built them in England, and English expatriates
designed the US
10. 10
Why did the English build them like that?
Because the first rail lines were built by the same
people who built the pre-railroad tramways, and
that's the gauge they used.
11. 11
Why did they use that gauge then? Because the
people who built the tramways used the same
jigs and tools that they had used for building
wagons, which used that wheel spacing.
12. 12
Why did the wagons have that particular odd
wheel spacing? Well, if they tried to use any other
spacing, the wagon wheels would break on some
of the old long distance roads in England,
because that's the spacing of the wheel ruts.
13. 13
re of
as
rs ago
So who built those old rutted roads?
Imperial Rome built the first long distance roads in
Europe (including England) for their legions. Those
roads have been used ever since.
Since the chariots were made for Imperial Rome,
they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing.

a major Space Shuttle design feature of
what is arguably the world's most
advanced transportation system was
determined over two thousand years ago
by the width of a horse's ass
Why did the wagons have that particular
odd wheel spacing?
Well, if they tried to use any other spacing,
the
wagon wheels would break on some of the
old,
long distance roads in England, because
that's
the spacing of the wheel ruts.
Imperial Roman army chariots were made just
wide enough to accommodate the rear ends of
two war horses

“in the future, all
companies will be
software companies” – in
other words, fulfilling the high
expectations of tomorrow’s
consumers will require a
seamless, coherent approach,
centered on big data, and
that this “software” will be the
ultimate source of competitive
advantage”.

20. Software vs Systems
20
Software is fundamental to the performance,
features, and value of most modern systems.
Software shapes the system architecture;
drives much of its complexity and emergent
behavior; strains its verification; and drives
much of the cost and schedule of its
development.

31. A definition of System
31
System of Interest is the
system of concern to those
who have interest in it.
A system is a group of interacting,
interrelated, or interdependent
elements forming a complex whole.
33. Life Cycle of a System
33
A life cycle for a system generally consists of a series of stages regulated by a set of
management decisions which confirm that the system is mature enough to leave one
stage and enter another ( SEBoK Version 1.9.1 2018 )
34. Exploratory/Concept Stages
( Problem Space )
34
Never preconceived or
existing solutions, it kills
creativity and doesn’t
offer opportunities of
knowledge

stages – Concept/Feasibility Studies

47. Systems Engineering ( V model )
47
Systems engineering is the
general term for the methods
used to provide optimally
engineered, operationally
effective, complex systems.
Systems engineering balances
capability, risk, complexity,
cost and technological
choices to provide a solution
which best meets the
customer’s needs
48. The practice of Systems
Engineering is…..
48
…..a balance between Systemic and Systematic
aspects:
Systemic - thinking about the whole system, its
context and stakeholders
Systematic - following a structured approach to
the realization of the system

81. Conclusions
81
• Can't see the forest for the trees, too involved in the
details of a problem to look at the situation as a
whole.
• Apply Systems Thinking to understand Who, When,
Where, What, How and Why
• Keep separate Problem Space and Solution Space is
critical.
82. Conclusions
82
• Systems of Systems is becoming a critical perspective
in thinking about systems. Systems Engineering is a
key factor in making this complexity manageable.
• Spain moved toward a capability-based approach in
Materiel Acquisition, more than ever requires a
strategic commitment to expanding the role of
systems engineering among national the industries
and MoD/service communities.
