Journal Day 2: System Integration (assignment 1)

What is the most critical aspect of integration efforts in systems engineering and why?

Integration is like solving a jigsaw puzzle from a 10,000 feet observation.

The aspect of human interaction is most important in system integration. People is the most critical aspect of integration efforts. We manage interfaces among system and other systems
Without people none of the planning can happen. We all need to work together to ensure successful system integration.

Requirement, requirement, requirement .... (not location location, location ...)
C - characteristic (i.e. copper)
R - Relation (i.e. greater than, less than)
V - Value (i.e. 10 mil, )

Integration is exchanging EMMI
Energy
Matter
Materials
Information

Decompose - breaking system into subsystem and components
Aggregate - bringing things together
