Methodology Tailoring for Development Time Optimization
Speaker: Anthony Millán
The DARPA Adaptive Vehicle Make program proposed the META design flow – a method that integrates architecture development, detailed design, and performance analysis efforts using Model-Based Systems Engineering and a component model database – as a means to achieve a 5X reduction in complex system development time. This research tailored the ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288 technical processes to incorporate the META design flow and extend it into an end-to-end Systems Engineering methodology.

President's POV
INCOSE - Chesapeake Chapter Modeling Complex Systems
Mr. Taras Alexander Mykytyn
|
The INCOSE Systems Engineering Vision - 2025 paper sets the foundation for rest of the year for the monthly President’s Point of View (POV) articles. February’s POV article covered the topic of
Fostering Mentorship for STEM Students
. This is extremely important in enhancing the education of the future systems engineering profession and enticing students to become more comfortable and active in STEM-related education and activities.

This is the monthly newsletter for INCOSE Chesapeake, a local chapter of INCOSE International. We are a not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing a forum for professionals practicing the art and science of Systems Engineering in the Northern & Central Maryland & Southern Pennsylvania area
|
The Chesapeake Chapter is always looking for volunteers to speak at our upcoming meetings! Please contact our
Programs Director
if you would like the opportunity to speak or can recommend someone.
|
The Chesapeake Chapter of INCOSE is proud to recognize the following organizations for sponsoring our endeavors to expanding the understanding and appreciation of Systems Engineering in the local area:
|
|
|
This month’s article will focus on
Modeling Complex System
s, and why the SE and STEM community needs to step up their skills and expertise in understanding the driving requirements for complex systems, system and subsystem inter-dependencies, system-of-systems complexity, and future challenges for all industries. As the expansion of products and services go beyond local and country boundaries, to a more global solution space, SEs and STEM professionals need to think on a more broad and global scale to address these challenges.
