Engineering process – need and specification (1) • Need, definition • An attribute of a potential system (product) that is desired by the customer. • Other names: customer attributes, customer requirements • Guideline for need statements • Express the need in terms of what the system (product) has to do, not how. • Express the need as specific as possible • Use positive, not negative phrasing • Express the need as an attribute of the system (product). • Avoid using the words must and should. • Organize needs into a hierarchy • Establish their relative importance
Engineering process – need and specification (2) • Specification, definition • A precise description of what the system (product) has to do. • A specification has a metric and a value. A value may take on several forms such as a number or a range. • A specifications is a set of the individual specifications. • Other terms used: • system (product) requirements, engineering characteristics, technical specifications
Engineering process – need and specification (3) • Specification types: • Target specifications: • Preliminary, ideal specifications • Final specifications (in the contract book) • Final specifications depend on • what customers needs, • what is technical and economic feasible and • what our competitors offer in the market place.
Engineering process – need and specification (4) • Metrics • The most useful metrics are those that reflect as directly as possible the degree to which the system (product) satisfies the customer need. • Metrics must be precise and measurable such that meeting specifications lead to satisfaction of the related customer needs • A need may be translated into more than one metrics, and one metrics may satisfy one or multiple needs.
Engineering process – need and specification (5) • Setting metrics value • Competitive benchmarking • Set ideal and marginally acceptable target • Develop technical and economic models to assess feasibility • Use the above data to create competitive maps and conduct trade-off analysis
Engineering process – need and specification (6) • Hierarchy of system specifications • Each system (product) may have a hierarchy of subsystems (products). • Each subsystem has its specifications • Therefore, the overall specifications for the system must be decomposed (or flowed down) to hierarchical sets of specifications, one for each subsystem.
Engineering process – modeling and analysis (1) • Model, definition • Analytical or physical approximation of the system (product), used as a tool for predicting the values of the metrics for a particular set of design decisions • Models can be focused or comprehensive, depending on the degree to which they implement all of the attributes of the system (product). • Various models (including prototypes) may be developed to support the engineering process including system specification, engineering analysis, functional design, and implementation design. • Modeling: • the process for creating a model that reflects a desired system representation for understanding, assessment, and/or communication. • Two well-known models: AS-IS and TO-BE.
Engineering process – modeling and analysis (2) • Analysis, Def. • An engineering activity that uses a mathematical means or an engineering tool (such as a system or its model) to • understand and assess its behaviors and • Determine its desired end and the most efficient method of obtaining this (that is, to seek an optimal technical solution) • It may be exercised in all engineering phases. • Engineering analysis types: • A technical decision for • A specification • A system (product) solution approach • A functional design • An implementation design
