Computer-Aided Systems Engineering. Version 01.00.00

Abstract

This presentation includes information concerning toolset requirements, current and projected tools, tool capabilities assessment and perceived critical deficiencies. The author presents a tools assessment matrix that demonstrates a mapping between toolset requirements and currently available systems engineering tools. He discusses the benefits and problems that organizations experience with tools. The timing and costs of investments in tools, how tools can be expected to perform and future expectations are presented. He explains why companies choose tools, identifies the most favorable environments and discusses common obstacles to successful CASE use. This video is intended for systems and software engineering development lead engineers, project managers and division managers working in the area of system and software engineering. Viewers will benefit by gaining information about systems engineering tools and automation, especially the value and capability of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) tools. Dr. Andriole emphasizes the use of lower cost PC based (DOS or MAC) tools to support systems engineering activities including requirements modeling, simulation and prototyping, evaluation and trade-off analysis, testing and reliability, technology forecasting and risk analysis
