Description:: While system complexity is on the rise across many product lines, the resources required to successfully design and implement complex systems remain constrained. Because financiers of complex systems development efforts actively monitor project implementation cost, project performance models are...

Advisor:: Mazzuchi, Thomas A. and Sarkani, Shahram
Committee Member(s):: Murphree, E. Lile, Blackburn, Timothy, and Stuban, Steven
Resource Type:: Thesis or Dissertation

Description:: This thesis solves a systems-engineering problem of quantifying what amount of integration is reasonable, prior to initiating a project to develop an integrated system. Systems-integration is a later engineering activity, most difficult to perform, often a large consumer of resources, and can be...
