Master the Art of Systems Engineering: A 4-Day Intensive Training Program

Day 1: Process Overview and Requirements Mastery

• Get Acquainted with System Development Processes: Start with a comprehensive overview of the general development process including an introduction to the IEEE 15288 standard.
• Deep Dive into SysML and Requirements Handling: Learn to articulate complex system requirements through SysML diagrams, and grasp textual requirements as guided by IEEE and INCOSE standards. Explore the nuances of verification, validation, and requirements diagrams.
• Crafting Effective Use Cases and Scenarios: Engage with use case diagrams and develop use cases that capture the essence of system interactions.
• Ensuring Excellence through Traceability: Understand the importance of requirements attributes and the art of maintaining traceability across the project lifecycle.

Day 2: Hands-On Requirements and Use Case Challenges

• Refine Your Skills with Intensive Exercises: Review Day 1 concepts and tackle working problems focused on real-world applications, including creating and analyzing requirements diagrams, attributes, and ensuring traceability.
• Practical Use Case Application: Put theory into practice with exercises on drafting use case examples and diagrams, including handling alternate and error scenarios.
• Requirements Prioritization: Learn the basis of prioritization to ensure a successful project execution.

Day 3: Architecting Robust Systems

• System Architecture In-Depth: Learn system decomposition through exploring components, activities, interfaces, and both static and active modeling using UML and SysML tools like blocks, classes / objects, package,  use cases, activities, sequence, and state machine diagrams.

Day 4: Hands-On Architecture Exercises

• Put your New Knowledge to Use: Review Day 3 concepts and tackle working problems focused on real-world applications
  • Static modeling exercises: block / internal block / class / package diagrams
  • Active modeling exercises: activity / sequence / state machine diagrams
  • Requirements modeling exercises: requirement / use case diagrams
  • Parametric modeling exercises: parametric diagrams
• Design patterns: Learn how design patterns simplify system design and avoid “re-inventing the wheel” for commonly encountered challenges
• Mapping of system engineering processes to product development lifecycles: revisit the product development lifecycles and understand where your newly-found skills can be put to use.
