Task co‐use and product improvement: An organization design perspective
Abstract Research Summary Co‐using tasks—using the same task to produce more than one product—promises economies of scope. However, task co‐use also ties products together, changing a firm's task network by introducing cross‐product interdependencies. In light of these interdependencies, we identify an unrecognized downside of task co‐use for product ...

Feasibility and concept study to convert the NASA/AMES vertical motion simulator to a helicopter simulator [PDF]
The conceptual design for converting the vertical motion simulator (VMS) to a multi-purpose aircraft and helicopter simulator is presented. A unique, high performance four degrees of freedom (DOF) motion system was developed to permanently replace the ...

ABSTRACT Structural Complexity is perceived as driving cost in system development, yet managing it effectively requires empirical understanding. This study investigates human decision‐making using a toy transportation‐style network design task, focusing on how Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance interact. Seventy‐four participants (primarily

A Bibliometric Review of the INCOSE's Model‐Based Systems Engineering Roadmap
ABSTRACT Over the past decade, model‐based systems engineering (MBSE) has gained attention as an approach for managing system complexity, offering a shift from a document‐based to a model‐based approach. The International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) sparked increasing interest when it introduced MBSE and its roadmap as part of its systems ...

A Systems Engineering Methodology for System of Autonomous Systems: Test and Evaluation
ABSTRACT Recent advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) have resulted in autonomous systems that reduce operators' workload and involvement in hazardous missions. Integrating these systems into an existing system of systems (SoS) can evolve it into a system of autonomous system (SoAS).
