Systems Design Articles
Systems Engineering
Systems engineering is an interdisciplinary, holistic approach to dealing with large and complex engineering projects through the application of systems theory...
Complex Adaptive Technologies
Complex adaptive technologies refer to networks of technologies that can adapt and respond to each other. Classical examples of this being swarm robotics, the Internet routing system or urban...
Networked Design
Complex systems are by many definitions highly interconnected, examples being social networks, financial networks, and transportation networks....
Synergistic Design
A synergy can be defined as the interaction or cooperation of two or more organizations, substances, or other agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects....
Design Abstraction
Abstraction in design is the process of removing successive levels of detail from a representation in order to capture only the essential features of a system. ...
Service Systems
A service system is a coherent combination of people, process, and technology that delivers some value to an end user....
Complex Systems Design
Complex systems design represents an alternative paradigm to our traditional design engineering approach. The paradigm of complex systems design is focused on the development of open systems...
Design Thinking
Design thinking is a design process that enables us to solve complex problems. It combines deep end-user experience, systems thinking, iterative rapid prototyping and multi-stakeholder feedback...
Event-Driven Architecture
Event-driven architecture (EDA) is a design pattern built around the production, detection, and reaction to events that take place in time. It is a design paradigm normalized for dynamic,...
Modular Systems Design
Modular design is a design pattern that is built around the idea of autonomous modular components that can be independently created, easily configured and reconfigured into different systems....
Platform Technologies
Platform technologies are systems build upon a platform architecture that distributes the system out into different levels of abstraction....
Service Oriented Architecture
Service Oriented Architecture is an approach to distributed systems architecture that employs loosely coupled services, standard interfaces, and protocols to deliver seamless cross-platform...
