The objectives of the program are to: significantly increase safety and reliability, reduce the cost of accessing low-earth orbit, attempt to leverage commercial launch capabilities, and provide a growth path for manned space exploration. The safety, reliability and life cycle cost of the next generation vehicles are major concerns, and NASA aims to achieve orders of magnitude improvement in these areas. To get these significant improvements, requires a rigorous process that addresses Reliability, Maintainability and Supportability (RMS) and safety through all the phases of the life cycle of the program. This paper discusses the RMS process being implemented for the Second Generation RLV program. 1.0 INTRODUCTION The 2nd Generation RLV program has in place quantitative Level-I RMS, and cost requirements [Ref 1] as shown in Table 1, a paradigm shift from the Space Shuttle program. This paradigm shift is generating a change in how space flight system design is approached.

  • 3 System Design 71 NYS Project Management Guidebook
    Section III:3 System Design 71 NYS Project Management Guidebook 3 SYSTEM DESIGN Purpose The purpose of System Design is to create a technical solution that satisfies the functional requirements for the system. At this point in the project lifecycle there should be a Functional Specification, written primarily in business terminology, con- taining a complete description of the operational needs of the various organizational entities that will use the new system. The challenge is to translate all of this information into Technical Specifications that accurately describe the design of the system, and that can be used as input to System Construction. The Functional Specification produced during System Require- ments Analysis is transformed into a physical architecture. System components are distributed across the physical archi- tecture, usable interfaces are designed and prototyped, and Technical Specifications are created for the Application Developers, enabling them to build and test the system. Many organizations look at System Design primarily as the preparation of the system component specifications; however, constructing the various system components is only one of a set of major steps in successfully building a system. The prepara- tion of the environment needed to build the system, the testing of the system, and the migration and preparation of the data that will ultimately be used by the system are equally impor- tant. In addition to designing the technical solution, System Design is the time to initiate focused planning efforts for both the testing and data preparation activities. List of Processes This phase consists of the following processes: N Prepare for System Design, where the existing project repositories are expanded to accommodate the design work products, the technical environment and tools needed to support System Design are established, and training needs of the team members involved in System Design are addressed.

  • The Embedded Systems Design Challenge*
    The Embedded Systems Design Challenge? Thomas A. Henzinger1 and Joseph Sifakis2 1 EPFL, Lausanne 2 VERIMAG, Grenoble Abstract. We summarize some current trends in embedded systems design and point out some of their characteristics, such as the chasm be- tween analytical and computational models, and the gap between safety- critical and best-effort engineering practices. We call for a coherent sci- entific foundation for embedded systems design, and we discuss a few key demands on such a foundation: the need for encompassing several mani- festations of heterogeneity, and the need for constructivity in design. We believe that the development of a satisfactory Embedded Systems Design Science provides a timely challenge and opportunity for reinvigorating computer science. 1 Motivation Computer Science is going through a maturing period. There is a perception that many of the original, defining problems of Computer Science either have been solved, or require an unforeseeable breakthrough (such as the P versus NP question). It is a reflection of this view that many of the currently advocated challenges for Computer Science research push existing technology to the limits (e.g., the semantic web [4]; the verifying compiler [15]; sensor networks [6]), to new application areas (such as biology [12]), or to a combination of both (e.g., nanotechnologies; quantum computing). Not surprisingly, many of the bright- est students no longer aim to become computer scientists, but choose to enter directly into the life sciences or nanoengineering [8]. Our view is different. Following [18, 22], we believe that there lies a large un- charted territory within the science of computing.

Digitalization (e.g., Industry 4.0) enables transformation, but it also increases relational complexities in scope and number. In Product–Service Systems (PSSs), the combination of manufactured goods and services should be delivered in new business models based on value-adding digital assistance. From a systems science view, such combinations cannot be managed by the same approach as if they were one uniform system; rather, it is an interdependent mix of technical, social, and digital designs. This paper initializes an updated conceptual discourse on PSSs and provides a reflection on the expected challenges in the transformation from linear to circular models. For example, the role of systems thinking to guide early design stages is discussed and the importance of processes for creating shared visions at different systems levels is suggested to be addressed in future research. The intention is to formulate thoughts about radical cognitive changes in order to realize the PSS paradigm. Keywords: product–service systems; Industry 4.0; circular economy; digital services; innovation; socio-technical systems; digitalization 1.

  • The Design Charrette in the Classroom As a Method for Outcomes Based Action Learning in IS Design
    Eagen, Ngwenyama, and Prescod Sat, Nov 4, 5:00 - 5:25, Normandy A The Design Charrette in the Classroom as a Method for Outcomes Based Action Learning in IS Design Ward M. Eagen [email protected] Ojelanki Ngwenyama [email protected] Franklyn Prescod [email protected] Information Technology Management, Ryerson University Toronto, Ontario M5B 2K3, Canada Abstract This paper explores the adaptation of a traditional studio technique in architecture – the De- sign Charrette – to the teaching of New Media design in a large information systems program. The Design Charrette is an intense, collaborative session in which a group of designers drafts a solution to a design problem in a time critical environment. The Design Charrette offers learn- ing opportunities in a very condensed period that are difficult to achieve in the classroom by other means and we have adapted its application from the architecture studio to for New Me- dia instruction. The teaching of information systems has tended to rely heavily on conventional pedagogical approaches although there is growing recognition of the importance of experien- tial and applied learning. Accreditation standards have also placed added emphasis on out- come-based learning and encouraged more mindfulness concerning instructional design (Lee et. al., 1995; McGourty et. al., 1999). As a consequence, more emphasis on experiential learning has emerged in recent years. Architecture has long been used as a reference disci- pline for Information Systems and much of the language used in information systems design is drawn from architectural discourse. However, while architectural design combines attention to history and form as well as function, most information systems design is driven by functional considerations.

  • Design and Engineering of Functional Clothing
    Indian Journal of Fibre & Textile Research Vol.36, December 2011, pp. 327-335 Design and engineering of functional clothing Deepti Guptaa Department of Textile Technology, Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi 110 016, India The process of design and engineering of functional clothing design is based on the outcomes of an objective assessment of many requirements of the user, and hence tend to be complex and iterative. In this paper, the user requirements (besides the primary requirement of functionality) have been classified under four subtitles, namely physiological, biomechanical, ergonomic and psychological. The correlation between various characteristics of clothing and these requirements has been discussed. Subsequent steps involved in the ergonomic design process such as selection of materials, size and fit determination, pattern making, assembling and finishing have been listed out. Influence of technological advancements in related fields on each of these activities is discussed with a view to emphasise how the process of functional clothing design is different from design of everyday apparel. The fast developing field of functional clothing represents the future of textile and apparel industry, particularly in growing economies like China and India who will be the largest producers as well as consumers of these high tech products. Challenges being faced by this sector and a road map to meet the same have also been proposed. Keywords: Clothing engineering, Comfort, Clothing design, Ergonomic design process, Functional clothing 1 Introduction ergonomic design process such as selection of Unlike fashion clothing, which is essentially a materials, size and fit determination, pattern making, product of the designer’s creative instincts, the assembling and finishing have also been listed out.

Abstract: Software development begins with the requirements. Misunderstandings with customers in this early phase of development result in wasted development time. This work investigates the possibility of using executable UI mockups in the initial phases of functional requirements elicitation during the development of business applications. Although there has been a lot of research in the field in recent years, we find that there is still a need to improve model-driven tool design in order to enable customer participation from the initial phases of requirement specifications based on working prototypes. These prototypes can directly be reused in the rest of the development process. To meet the goal, we have been developing an open-source solution called Kroki that enables rapid collaborative development. We conducted a series of 10 joint user sessions with domain experts from different domains and backgrounds, resulting in the prototype specifications ranging from 7 to 20 screen mockups accompanied with domain models, developed in two-hour time frames. In this paper, we present our tool design that contributes to rapid joint development, and the results from the user sessions.

  • Reliability Engineering 1 Reliability Engineering
    Reliability engineering 1 Reliability engineering Reliability engineering is an engineering field that deals with the study, evaluation, and life-cycle management of reliability: the ability of a system or component to perform its required functions under stated conditions for a specified period of time.[1] Reliability engineering is a sub-discipline within systems engineering. Reliability is theoretically defined as the probability of failure, the frequency of failures, or in terms of availability, a probability derived from reliability and maintainability. Maintainability and maintenance may be defined as a part of reliability engineering. Reliability plays a key role in cost-effectiveness of systems. Although Reliability is defined and affected by stochastic parameters, according to some acknowledged specialists, quality, reliability and safety are NOT achieved by mathematics and statistics. Nearly all teaching and literature on the subject emphasizes these aspects, and ignores the reality that the ranges of uncertainty involved largely invalidate quantitative methods for prediction and measurement. [2] Reliability engineering for complex systems requires a different, more elaborate systems approach than for non-complex systems. Reliability engineering may involve functional (failure) analysis, proper and useful requirements specification and analysis, hardware & software design, manufacturing, testing, maintenance, transport, storage, spare parts, operations research, human factors, technical documentation, data and information acquisition / organisation and more. Effective reliability engineering requires understanding of the basics of failure mechanisms for which experience, broad engineering skills and good knowledge from many different special fields of engineering, like: tribology-, stress-, fatigue-, thermal-, electrical- and chemical engineering. Reliability engineering is closely related to safety engineering and system safety, in that they use common methods for their analysis and may require input from each other.
