5. System design and in-kind collaborations Integral architecture Modular architecture Products (what) Often a combination of both

6. Systematic approach • The construction of the ESS will be paved by a huge number of: • products (most of them are not challenging), • processes (most of them are simple), • roles (all are important). • And thus a huge number of interfaces. • Most of the processes are common sense, but the quantity creates the complexity. • The inherent risk with such complexity can be significantly reduced by a documented systematic approach (ISO 15288). • Traceability from requirements to verification is a must at any level considering the whole facility life cycle.

10. About the phasing of SE implementation and on going ESS technical activities What is planned is not a reset of the system but to take a snapshot based on a systematic approach to track inconsistencies and, thus, to bring all the stakeholders in an holistic perspective. Outputs of the SE process will be crucial documentations to support the configuration management during the construction phase.

17. ESS requirements ESS objectives Define requirements Part 1 requirements Part n requirements Part 2 requirements • ESS requirements into a tree-like hierarchy will provide a mechanism for specifying what is necessary down to the lowest level of the system for each state of the life cycle. • Trace links between the scientific objectives and the facility requirements will ensure that the users understand how their needs have been translated into system requirements. System of Part 1 requirements

18. Relationship of aims • Stakeholder :any entity (individual or organization) with a legitimate interest in the system or which could influence the development, • Programme/project goals: statement of what the programme or project will deliver. • Requirement:specifies a capability or condition that must be satisfied.

19. Requirements types • Function:“what is performed by the system?” • Constraint: “how the function must be performed?”, • Performance: condition that a system must achieve: clear criterion of achievement of the function/constraint. • Example: • “Transport the proton beam” is a function, • “Limit the beam loss” is a constraint, • “Less than 1 W/m” is an associated performance. • Funct/Const requirement have to be ideally specified by a functive (verb+noun). • See Requirement development policy.

Let’s play: a bicycle Convert user energy Pedals Create motion (accelerate) Adapt effort Adapt couple between pedal and wheel Derailleur Transmit energy to ground Transmit energy to wheels Chain/wheels Move Maintain wheel contact to ground Suspension Stop motion (brake) Dissipate energy Brakes Steer motion (guide) Change wheel angle Enable wheel rotation Direction Stem Transmit user request Handlebars

49. Summary • The construction of the ESS will be paved by a huge number of products, processes and roles; thus a huge number of interfaces. • Most of the processes are common sense, but the quantity creates the complexity. • ESS made the choice to significantly limit the risk inherent with such complexity by implementing a documented systematic approach: MBSE. • The SE deployment is an on going process in the different projects. Working groups meetings have been quite lify and a source interesting and productive discussions. • The SE plan is now a core process for licensing.

50. SE Handbook v3 p. 2.8 • “Upon casual reading, systems engineers appear to be responsible for everything that happens on a project and systems engineering appears to introduce excessive process overhead and non-value added activities.” • “SE is a multi-disciplinary effort that involves both the technical effort and technical project management…[its implementation] requires vision and practical application of the principles.”
