Systems Engineering Management
Probability theory and analysis >>> Used in understanding and analysis of reliability and maintainability
Human made, physical, dynamic, open-loop >>> There are 4 sets of system categories used in the
textbook. Our textbook "tends to deal mainly with - systems that are - by nature, - in operation and of
the - variety.
System of Systems >>> SOS
commercial off-the-shelf >>> COTS
Systems Engineering typically leads the planning and control aspects >>> Which of the following
statements is not true:
Technical Performance Measure >>> TPM
All elements of the product life cycle are considered during development from the beginning >>> The
key concept in concurrent engineering
System Requirements >>> What is the first step of Blanchards V-shape system development model
Functional Analysis & Requirements allocation >>> What 2 parts compromise the second step of
Blanchards V-shaped system development model
Design integration Component acquisition >>> What two parts are the third step of Blanchards V-
shaped system developmental model
Construction and Installation of Capital as >>> The 4th step of BlanchardsV-shape system
developmental model.
Startup and early production System evalation >>> the 5th step in Blanchard's V-shape system
developmental model
Full-Scale Production
System Utilization
Maintenance and Support system evaluation >>> 6th step of Blanchards V-shape System developmetal

System Retirement and Material disposal >>> 7th Step of Blanchards V-shape system developmental
model
, Research and development
Production and Construction
Operation and Maintenance
System retirement and >>> The life-cycle cost
Total Quality Management >>> TQM is totally integrates management approach that addresses
system/product quality during all phases of the life cycle and at each level in the overall system
hierarchy
False >>> Systems engineers are usually responsible for the project management for the entire system
development program
True >>> Systems Engineers typically use both top-down and bottom-up approaches in development of
the system
True >>> Reliability, safety and logistics engineering are examples of major supporting design
disciplines.
False >>> the TEMP is the Test Engineering Master Plan
True >>> Toward the latter stages of detail design, one part of the objective is to establish a "baseline"
for the purposes of benchmarking
False >>> Since system retirement and material disposal happen so far in the future, decisions made in
design do not really have that much impact on that step in the System Engineering Process.
True >>> During system operational use and life-cycle support, success data refers to information
covering system operations and utilization on a continuing basis.
False >>> Once the system is in production, it is not that important to maintain the system
configuration and performance characteristics.
False >>> The best way to test and evaluate a system is to first build the complete system and test the
whole thing to see if it all works.
True >>> Ranking of the customer needs in priority order is a part of the House of Quality (HOQ).
Type 4 >>> Formal tests conducted during system operational use and life-cycle support phase;
typically at operational sites in real environment by operational and maintenance personal.
Type 2 >>> Formal tests and demonstrations during later stages of detailed design and development
phase; typically with preproduction prototypes; qualification type testing occurs here.
