EM 565 - I. Introduction
Definitions
System
A set of interrelated components working
together toward some common objective or purpose

• Components
• Attributes
• Relationships

11
EM 565 - I. Introduction
Component Properties
a. Each of the set has an effect on the set as
a whole b. Each of the set depends on at least
one of the other c. If each subset has a. and b.
it cannot be subdivided into individual subsets
12

EM 565 - I. Introduction
Topics for Discussion

• What are some of the differences (or
  similarities) between System Engineering and
  some of the more traditional disciplines such as
  aero, electrical, or mechanical?
• What is meant by Life Cycle?, Cost? Why is
  it important in the decision making process?
