3. Architectural Design
4. Implementation
5. Integration
6. Verification
7. Transition
8. Validation
9. Operation
10. Maintenance
11. Disposal
Agreement Processes (2)
1. Acquisition
2. Supply
Activity (5)
Set of cohesive tasks of a process
Enabling System (5)
A system that supports a system of interest during its lifecycle stages but does not necessarily contribute directly to its function during operation
Process (5)
Set of interrelated or interacting activities which transforms inputs into outputs
Project (5)
An endeavor with start and finish criteria undertaken to create a product or service in accordance with specified resources and requirements
Stage (5)
A period within the life cycle of an entity that relates to the state of its description or realization
System (5)
A combination of interacting elements organized to achieve one or more stated purposes

An integrated set of elements, subsystems or assemblies that accomplish a defined objective.
System Element (5) / Element
A member of a set of elements that constitutes a system.

A major product, service, or facility of the system.
Systems Engineering (5)
An interdisciplinary approach and means to enable the realization of successful systems. It focuses on defining customer needs and required functionality early in the development cycle, and system validation while considering the complete problem.
System-of-Interest (5)
The system whose life cycle is under construction.
Systems Thinking
Occurs through discovery, learning, diagnosis, and dialog  leads to sensing, modeling, and talking about the real world to better understand and define the system
Circular Causation
A variable is both the cause and effect
System of a System (SoS) (11)
Systems of interest whose system elements are themselves systems; typically large-scale inter-disciplinary problems involving multiple, heterogeneous distributed systems
Challenges of SoSs (13)
1. System Elements operate independently
2. System elements have different life cycles
3. The initial requirements are likely to be ambiguous
4. Complexity is a major issue
5. Management can overshadow engineering
6. Fuzzy boundaries cause confusion
7. SoS engineering is never done
**It is the job of an SE to be aware and mitigate these risks
