Four Challenges, and a Proposed Solution, for Cognitive System Engineering - System Development Integration

Abstract

Productively integrating Cognitive System Engineering (CSE) into system design and development processes depends on successfully addressing four challenges: determining which content produced by the CSE community adds specific value to system development, identifying CSE artifacts that communicate with other system development participants/stakeholders, selecting appropriate risk assessment tools to enable system developers to conduct relevant tradeoffs at each stage of design/development, and providing traceability to CSE cognitive/work requirements and first principles. We describe a philosophy and subset of tools for integrating CSE and system development by addressing each of these challenges.
