Comparison Between Rigid and Stochastic Models
A discrete-event simulation (DES) models are the operation of a system as a discrete sequence of events in time. Each event occurs at a particular instant in time and marks a change of state in the system. Between consecutive events, no change in the system is assumed to occur; thus the simulation can directly jump in time from one event to the next.
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.
A system is a group of interrelated components working together toward a common goal by accepting inputs and producing outputs in an organized transformation process.
This is a power-point presentation prepared for the students who are studying SYSTEM ENGINEERING in Fourth Semester (CBCS) of the branches of colleges affiliated to RGPV, Bhopal (M.P.). In this presentation, topics of the fourth unit in the syllabus are covered. I hope it will be helpful to the students.

When building digital products and services, we are designing complex systems.We need to think the customer experience through on several channels, figure out the system architecture, gain understanding through data and research, decide what to iterate... - not easy, but fun!
In this keynote talk given at Agile Cambridge 2016, Johanna introduces core systems thinking principles for designing better services, discussed how data and feedback mechanisms help us understand what is going on in a system, and addressed the challenge of bringing about change in a system.
System thinking and the arizona homeless problem by Bob BergmanEric Kingsbury, MBA
Bob Bergman on Systems Thinking and Chronic Social Problems
Understand why good intentions are not enough to solve chronic social problems and the application of systems thinking to understanding why homelessness persists in Maricopa County. While there will be a brief discussion on the complexity of social problems (Wicked Problems), this will not be a discussion on complexity theory, adaptive complex systems, autopoiesis, bifurcations, co-evolution, chaos and edge of chaos, emerging properties,far-from-equilibrium-states, power-law, self-organized criticality, sensitivity to initial conditions, etc. Rather this will be a discussion on the usefulness of applying systems thinking to chronic social and structural problems, with the hope that further “futures discussions” can take a similar approach.
Bob Bergman is President at Southwest Management Technology, LLC. He has 45 years of experience in management, technology, strategic planning, and systems thinking. Bob has been a WFS member for many years as well.
Chris Soderquist presentation at the 2016 Science of HOPE
Description:
This session will introduce participants to a powerful approach to orchestrating useful learning across difficult boundaries using system dynamics. Through real world examples and interactive exercises, participants will learn how system dynamics can help them gain far more useful leverage when addressing complex, adaptive challenges. Participants will also see how this approach was used in a project funded by the Foundation for Healthy Generations to guide strategic decisions in Washington (and other states) for building community capacity and resilience.

System Dynamics Modeling for Intellectual
Disability Services: A Case Studyjppi_342 112..119

Abstract Organizations providing services to persons with intellectual disabilities (ID) are complex because of many interacting
stakeholders with often different and competing interests. The combination of increased consumer demand and diminished resources
makes organizational planning a challenge for the managers of such organizations. Such challenges are confounded by significant
demands for the optimization of resources and the goal to reduce expenses and to more effectively and efficiently use existing
resources while at the same time providing high quality services. The authors explore the possibilities of using “system dynamics
modelling” in organizational decision-making processes related to resource allocations. System dynamics suggests the application of
generic systems archetypes as a first step in interpreting complex situations in an organization. The authors illustrate the application
of this method via a case study in one provider organization in the Netherlands. The authors contend that such a modeling approach
can be used by the management of similar organizations serving people with ID as a tool to support decision making that can result
in optimal resource allocation.
Keywords: allocation of resources, intellectual disabilities, system dynamics modeling, systems thinking, waiting lists
INTRODUCTION
Healthcare organizations are complex entities as they have
multiple stakeholders with often conflicting objectives and goals
(Drucker, 1993). Provider organizations specializing in intellec-
tual disabilities (ID) are also complex because of the nature of the
care and supports they provide and how they are organized. Some
of the complexities relate to the difficulties that adults with ID
might have in expressing themselves. Moreover, the specifics of
the care often require a deeper involvement of carers with respect
to their relationships with families and other sectors of society.
Because of their complexity, ID provider organizations, com-
pared with healthcare providers, often require a higher level of
resource planning, collaboration, and cooperation among social,
health, and education services, mental health services, and other
sectors (WHO, 2010).
To manage the complexities and challenges ID provider orga-
nizations face, managers need to analyze and understand complex
interdependencies among the systems with which they are dealing.
In order to achieve that, ID provider managers need to examine
and shift their mental models regarding their role in managing
the organization and in establishing relationships with all the
stakeholders involved. However, as Forrester (1980) has noted,

The Technologies learning area provides an opportunity to develop in students five distinct but complementary ways of thinking about and understanding the world: Systems Thinking, Design Thinking, Computational Thinking, Futures Thinking, and Strategic Thinking. This session will explore approaches to teaching the Technologies learning area through problem-solving activities that develop these thinking approaches.

How can a teacher be encouraging and motivating to students during challenging times ie. (COVID)? The problem is not being able to keep children motivated long enough to complete and submit assignments
· Do not simply put summaries together one by one or put all of your Annotated Bibliographies together
· Include an introduction section
· Include a conclusion section
· Consider creating themes
· You will need subheadings
· You must use APA format
· You must have a reference page (use hanging indents...See APA format)
· Use the correct in-paper citations
· Include different types of literature/resources
· Try to avoid using first person "I" (use scholarly, unbiased writing

Systems Dynamics: why it is useful for systems-thinking, what it is and how it relates to causal loop diagrams; how to gather information; how to map information in teams and how to assess it. Application to framing and understanding wicked problems in agri-food chains collectively.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
