INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT CHALLENGES

• Formal models, simulations results, proofs matter little if we aren’t in agreement on what we are building

• Safety analyses, no matter how elaborate, of a system we do not intend to build has little value

• Parts built, but not compatible in the intended configuration has little utility even though they may be fully verified

• The merit of the design solution is low if it can be maintained

• Mastering development is not about improving domain engineering methods but methodology for understanding and communicating system design

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF CPS

• Swedish industry is strong in many traditional industry domains

‒ Mature markets, competition is tough

• CPS, IoT & Co allow for the creation of completely new, disruptive systems by combining and integrating solutions from (previously) disconnected domains

‒ New paradigms may strangle established organisations in short time

‒ And provides great opportunities for new entrants

• CPS development organisations will grow in terms of engineering competencies covered

• CPS will increase the reliance on documentation and engineering communication for capturing and understanding the properties of the evolving system

‒ A barried for embrasing the potential of CPS in traditional industries

7



CONCLUSION

• The main CPS challenge is not about sharpening the domain analysis tools and methods, but about

• Enabling communication across the engineering disciplines in an organisation developing CPS

CONTINUOUS COMPETENCE DEVELOPMENT

12

• Internal training programs

• General Systems Engineering courses ‒ 6-20h training

‒ INCOSE CSEP preparation courses ‒ 20 students/year

• Dedicated courses in ‒ Safety

‒ ILS

‒ Architecture

‒ …

• In this area we are missing a partner that can offer more in depth training in systems engineering subjects

‒ And provide a meeting space for people and organisations with similar challenges



RESEARCH

13

• Many of our research projects are systems related

• When placed at non-systems institutions a lot of time and energy is required to adapt to the academic tradition of that institution

‒ Difficult to take advantage and build on earlier research
