Introduction to Systems Engineering V Introduction to Systems Engineering V. Arrichiello “It seems natural to begin the discussion with an immediate formal definition of systems engineering. However, systems engineering is an amorphous, slippery subject that does not lend itself well to such formal, didactic treatment . ” Hendrik Wade Bode: The Systems Approach, in Applied Science – Technological Progress, report to the Committee on Science and Astronautics, US House of Representatives (1967) 2 ©2014 Vincenzo Arrichiello - INCOSE Italia Systems Engineering WHEN?

Cultural Context General System Theory While in the past, science tried to explain observable phenomena by reducing them to an interplay of elementary units investigatable independently of each other, conceptions appear itin contemporary sc ithtience that are concerne dithd with what is somewhat vaguely termed "wholeness," i.e., problems of organization, phenomena not resolvable into local events, dynamic interactions manifest in the difference of behavior of parts when isolated or in a higher configuration, etc.; in short, "systems" of various orders not understandable by investigation of their respective parts in isolation. Hence the appearance, in all fields of science, of notions like wholeness, holistic, organismic, gestalt, etc., which all signify that, in the last resort, we must think in terms of systems of elements in mutual interaction. Ludwig von Bertalanffy, General System Theory: Foundations, Development, Applications, 1968, Braziller. 6 ©2014 Vincenzo Arrichiello - INCOSE Italia When? Cultural Context General System Theory The meaning of the somewhat mystical expression, "the w ho le is more th an th e sum of par ts"i" is s imp ly thtthat constitutive characteristics are not explainable from the characteristics of isolated parts. The characteristics of the complex, therefore, compared to those of the elements, appear as "new" or "emergent." Ludwig von Bertalanffy, General System Theory: Foundations, Development, Applications, 1968, Braziller. 7 ©2014 Vincenzo Arrichiello - INCOSE Italia When? Cultural Context General System Theory Open system is defined as a system in exchange of matter with its environment, presenting import and export, building-up and breaking-down of its material components. The basis of the open-system model is the dynamic interaction of its components. Ludwig von Bertalanffy, General System Theory: Foundations, Development, Applications, 1968, Braziller. 8 ©2014 Vincenzo Arrichiello - INCOSE Italia When? Cultural Context General System Theory Technology has been led to think not in terms of single machines but in those of "systems." A steam engine, automobile, or radio receiver was within the competence of the engineer trained in the respective specialty. But when it comes to ballistic missiles or space vehicles, they have to be assembled from components originating in heterogeneous technologies, mechanical, electronic, chemical, etc.; relations of man and machine come into play; and innumerable financial, economic, social and political problems are thrown into the bargain.

Cultural Context Cybernetics In the newer study of automata, whether in the metal or in the flesh, … we deal with automata effectively coupled to the external world, not merely by their energy flow, their metabolism, but also by a flow of impressions, of incoming messages, and of the acti ons of out goi ng messages. To sum up: the many automata of the present age are coupled to the outside world both for the reception of impressions and for the performance of actions. They contain sense organs, effectors, and the equivalent of a nervous system to integrate the transfer of information from the one to the other. They lend themselves very well to description in physiological terms. [Organic Analogy] Norbert Wiener, Cybernetics: Or Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine, 1948, MIT Press 11 ©2014 Vincenzo Arrichiello - INCOSE Italia When? Cultural Context Cybernetics The behavioristic approach consists in the examination of the output of the object and of the relations of this output to the input. By output is meant any change produced in the surroundings by the object. By input, conversely, is meant any event external to the object that modifies this object in any manner. … a uniform behavioristic analysis is applicable to both machines and living organisms, regardless o fthf the comp lex ity o fthf the be hav ior. Rosenblueth A., Wiener N. and Bigelow J., Behavior, Purpose and Teleology, 1943, Philosophy of Science, 10 12 ©2014 Vincenzo Arrichiello - INCOSE Italia When? Cultural Context Cybernetics The terms "black box" and "white box" are convenient and figurative expressions of not very well determined usage. I shall understand by a black box a piece of apparatus, such as four-terminal networks with two input and two outpu t term ina ls, w hic h per forms a de fin ite opera tion on the presen t an d pas t of the input potential, but for which we do not necessarily have any information of the structure by which this operation is performed. On the other hand, a white box will be similar network in which we have built in the relation between input and output potentials in accordance with a definite structural plan for securing a previously determined input-output relation Norbert Wiener, Cybernetics: Or Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine, 1948, MIT Press 13 ©2014 Vincenzo Arrichiello - INCOSE Italia When? Cultural Context Operations Research An objective of Operations Research is to provide managers of the organization with a scientific basis for solving problems involving the interaction of components of the organization in the best interest of the organization as a whole. The comprehensiveness of O.R.'s aim is an example of a "systems" approach, since "system" implies an interconnected complex of functionally related components. ... to see a system as a whole means not only to see all its components and their interrelationships but also all aspects of its operations .

Therefore, there is a need for introducing feedback control and its application to high school students and their teachers to recruit the next generation of engineers and scientists in this field. We also believe that the academic community has a responsibility to disseminate the information cheaply, if not freely, to a wide range of interested audience, be it students, parents, or teachers, across the globe. This way, we can guarantee that people from different socio- economic backgrounds and in different countries can make informed decisions regarding their careers and those of their friends and families. Motivated by these needs, in this project, we have attempted at developing an online platform for the students and their educators to read about the control engineering, watch lectures by researchers from academia and industry, access interviews with successful people in the control engineering community, and play online games to test their understanding and to possibly learn about the applications of the automatic control.

Memorial Tributes: Volume 3 HENDRIK WADE BODE 51 Hendrik Wade Bode 1905–1982 By Harvey Brooks Hendrik Wade Bode was widely known as one of the most articulate, thoughtful exponents of the philosophy and practice of systems engineering—the science and art of integrating technical components into a coherent system that is optimally adapted to its social function. After a career of more than forty years with Bell Telephone Laboratories, which he joined shortly after its founding in 1926, Dr. Bode retired in 1967 to become Gordon McKay Professor of Systems Engineering (on a half-time basis) in what was then the Division of Engineering and Applied Physics at Harvard. He became professor emeritus in July 1974. He died at his home in Cambridge on June 21, 1982, at the age of seventy- six. He is survived by his wife, Barbara Poore Bode, whom he married in 1933, and by two daughters, Dr. Katharine Bode Darlington of Philadelphia and Mrs. Anne Hathaway Bode Aarnes of Washington, D.C. Hendrik Bode was born in Madison, Wisconsin, on December 24, 1905. After attending grade school in Tempe, Arizona, and high school in Urbana, Illinois, he went on to Ohio State University, from which he received his B.A. in 1924 and his M.A. in 1926, both in mathematics. He joined Bell Labs in 1926 to work on electrical network theory and the design of electric filters. While at Bell, he also pursued graduate studies at Columbia University, receiving his Ph.D.

  • Mirostat:Aneural Text Decoding Algorithm That Directly Controls Perplexity
    Published as a conference paper at ICLR 2021 MIROSTAT:ANEURAL TEXT DECODING ALGORITHM THAT DIRECTLY CONTROLS PERPLEXITY Sourya Basu∗ Govardana Sachitanandam Ramachandrany Nitish Shirish Keskary Lav R. Varshney∗;y ∗Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign ySalesforce Research ABSTRACT Neural text decoding algorithms strongly influence the quality of texts generated using language models, but popular algorithms like top-k, top-p (nucleus), and temperature-based sampling may yield texts that have objectionable repetition or incoherence. Although these methods generate high-quality text after ad hoc pa- rameter tuning that depends on the language model and the length of generated text, not much is known about the control they provide over the statistics of the output. This is important, however, since recent reports show that humans pre- fer when perplexity is neither too much nor too little and since we experimen- tally show that cross-entropy (log of perplexity) has a near-linear relation with repetition. First we provide a theoretical analysis of perplexity in top-k, top-p, and temperature sampling, under Zipfian statistics. Then, we use this analysis to design a feedback-based adaptive top-k text decoding algorithm called mirostat that generates text (of any length) with a predetermined target value of perplexity without any tuning. Experiments show that for low values of k and p, perplexity drops significantly with generated text length and leads to excessive repetitions (the boredom trap). Contrarily, for large values of k and p, perplexity increases with generated text length and leads to incoherence (confusion trap). Mirostat avoids both traps.

Here we shall show how performance specifications in terms of Bode plots in the frequency domain are related to time domain performance. Bandwidth and Rise Time The Bode plot of the transfer function α 10 Hs()== ss++α 10 is shown. The break frequency occurs at 10 rad/sec, the magnitude of the pole. Bode Diagram 0 -3db -5 System: sys Frequency (rad/sec): 9.98 Magnitude (dB): -3 -10 -15 -20 Magnitude (dB)Magnitude -25 -30 -35 -40 0 ωB -30 Phase (deg) -60 -90 -1 0 1 2 3 10 10 10 10 10 Frequency (rad/sec) The 3dB cutoff frequency, or bandwidth, ωB is the frequency at which the frequency magnitude response has decreased by 3dB from its low frequency value. In this example ωB ==α 10rad / s . The impulse response of this system is ht()== e−−αtt e /τ , where the time constant is τ ==1/αω 1/ B . 1 The step response rise time is given by tr = 2.2τ . The settling time is ts = 5τ . The time constant is inversely related to the bandwidth. Therefore, as bandwidth increases, the system response becomes faster.

    Design of an on-chip superconducting microwave circulator with octave bandwidth Benjamin J. Chapman,1,2, ∗ Eric I. Rosenthal,1, 2 and K. W. Lehnert1, 2 1JILA, National Institute of Standards and Technology and the University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado 80309, USA 2 Department of Physics, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado 80309, USA (Dated: September 25, 2018) We present a design for a superconducting, on-chip circulator composed of dynamically modulated transfer switches and delays. Design goals are set for the multiplexed readout of superconducting qubits. Simulations of the device show that it allows for low-loss circulation (insertion loss < 0.35 dB and isolation > 20 dB) over an instantaneous bandwidth of 2.3 GHz. As the device is estimated to be linear for input powers up to −65 dBm, this design improves on the bandwidth and power- handling of previous superconducting circulators [1–3] by over a factor of 50, making it ideal for integration with broadband quantum limited amplifiers [4–6].
