Without standardized construction elements such as nuts, bolts,
bearings, beams, resistors and the like, the design of physical
equipment is hopelessly inefficient, and engineers are continually
bogged down with re-designing these elements over and over again.
The same can be said for the domain of ideas and performance
requirements. Only through a process of standardization of the
corresponding functional elements will systems engineering truly
live up to its potential of increased efficiency and quality.
Designing Complex Systems: Foundations of Design in the Functional
Domain introduces students and practitioners in the field of system
design to a particular methodology that addresses design issues in
a rigorous and consistent top-down fashion. It also reassesses the
characteristics of engineering and its place within the field of
intellectual activity, in particular, examining the creative
aspects of design as reflected in the difference between engineers
and technicians. Erik W. Aslaksen brings forty years of experience
to the table with this groundbreaking work. He examines how the
concept of value can provide a quantitative measure of that wider
interaction of the engineered object with its environment. With its
forward-looking approach and holistic perspective, this volume is
sure to advance the field of knowledge of systems engineering for
years to come.
