Abstract:Many of the key products and services used by modern societies are the result of
large-scale engineering projects. Despite decades of theoretical and practical work in the art
of systems engineering and project management, project execution results remain somewhat
inconsistent, in the sense that many projects fail to produce a product that meets the original
specifications, and many more projects achieve some measure of technical success only after
taking significantly more time and/or money than originally expected. One source of such
failures is the occurrence of unplanned and adverse dynamic behavior in the resulting system.
This paper summarizes research being conducted to look at the potential of design-phase
actions that centralize control of the eventual system's dynamic behavior as a potential
solution to some instances of this problem. This approach could lead to increased chances of
success on future major system development projects, through a new method for instituting
better control of the dynamic behavior of such a system. |
