Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 19, Problem 19.9E
Explanation of Solution
Systems engineering as profession:
System engineering is an interdisciplinary approach between engineering and engineering management and means to enable the realization of successful system by focusing on how to design and manage complex systems over their life cycles.
Systems engineer perform the following operations:
- They are responsible for the system concept,
architecture, and design. - They analyze and manage complexity and risk.
- They decide how to measure whether the deployed system actually works as intended.
- They are responsible for a myriad of other facets of system creation...
