The Advantages of Systems Engineering Standards, a Case Study of Application of the EIA632 Standard to Design of a Small-Scale Yacht
Résumé
The objective of the work described in this article is to demonstrate the advantages of using recommended methodology standards for the development of complex systems. After first describing the principles of systems engineering this paper then presents a universal systems engineering standard and describes how it was used to design and build a small-scale yacht. This case study demonstrates how the standard is an effective methodological support and allows an early detection of possible weaknesses during initial design stages.
