Lifecycle Processes
the first phase in the systems lifecycle where the problem is identified and initial requirements are gathered
What is Concept Development phase?
a characteristic that defines what a system must accomplish to be successful
What is a requirement?
The term for the possibility of an undesired outcome occurring in a system
What is Risk?
a modeling language commonly used in MBSE to represent system architectures
What is SysML?
The process of understanding how the components of a system interact to achieve a purpose
What is Systems Thinking?
the phase where the system is built, integrated, and verified before delivery
What is Implementation phase
Type of requirement specifies what a system must accomplish to meet stakeholder needs
What are Functional Requirements?
The two main factors that determine the severity of a risk
What is Likelihood and Impact?
type of model used in MBSE to describe a systems behavior and processes?
What is the activity diagram?
The process of examining how inputs, processes, and outputs interact within a system
What is Systems Analysis?
the process of determining if a system meets its operational requirements in a real-world environment
What is Operational Testing
The way that engineers ensure that system requirements are clear, testable, and relevant
What is conducting requirements validation?
common tool used to visualize and prioritize risks based on their severity
What is a risk matrix?
MBSE process focuses on visualizing and analyzing a system’s behavior and structure through models
What is Simulation and modeling?
Defines the dividing line between a system and its external environment
What is System Boundary?
The document created to detail the project timeline, deliverables, and system lifecycle stages
What is Systems Engineering Management Plan (SEMP)?
The term for tracking each requirement from its origin through design, implementation, and verification
What is the Requirements Traceability?
the process of identifying potential project risks
What is Risk Identification?
diagram type in MBSE that shows how system components are related and interact with each other
What is the Block Definition Diagram
The term for systems that are interconnected to achieve a larger shared objective
What is System of Systems?
The system development model that balances iterative processes with defined stages to ensure system integration and validation
What is a Vee Model?
Process that evaluates if requirements are aligned with the intended purpose of the system
What is Requirements Verification?
risk management process where actions are taken to reduce the likelihood or impact of a risk
What is Risk Mitigation ?
the iterative modeling process used to validate that a system design meets its requirements
What is Model Verification and Validation?
The strategy ensures feedback is integrated into a system to monitor and adjust its performance
What is Feedback Control?
