As complexity increases, model-based approaches have become standard in the systems
engineering community. However, engineers from different domains approach the …

The increasing complexity of systems to be developed requires engineers to review their
practices in order to improve the efficiency of engineering and meet the needs of a …

Product line engineering has become the main method for achieving systematic software
reuse. Embracing requirements in a product line's asset base enhances the effectiveness of …

Information practices and systems that make use of personal and health-related information
are governed by European laws and regulations to prevent unauthorized use and …

A modified levelized cost of energy (LCOE) model was created to determine the economic
crossover point (measured in€/barrel of oil) between a traditional diesel power-generating …

Engineering cannot wait until all phenomena are explained. Engineers may work effectively,
often for centuries, with heuristics. This paper provides thirty one heuristics that have been …

The increasing complexity of systems being developed requires engineers to review their
practices to improve engineering efficiency and meet the needs of a competitive market. To …

As engineering projects grow in complexity, estimating the required engineering effort
during the development phase of a project has become more art than science. Predictions of …

Product Line Engineering is an approach to reuse assets of complex systems by taking
advantage of commonalities between product families. Reuse within complex systems …

Abstract The Constructive Systems Engineering Cost Model (COSYSMO) is an open,
parametric model developed at the University of Southern California Center for Systems and …
