Abstract:
Over the history of systems engineering, there have been numerous attempts to establish the foundations of that field on other disciplines. In this paper, we explore a new approach, founding systems engineering on an architectural metaphor. This approach is based upon our work of the past five years to establish a discipline of systems architecture. We outline the key principles of our approachand discuss their relevance to the broader field of systems engineering.
