The Southern California SPIN (Software Process Improvement Network) and INCOSE-LA jointly sponsored a tutorial by John Clark on Jan 18, 2008 at NGC on software engineering, system engineering, and system of systems engineering standards. There were around 40 engineers in the audience in the morning and 17 in the afternoon. Both sessions were interactive sessions with many audience questions and participation from the audience. John Clark started the talk with a funny ‘system engineering’ Dilbert video from Scott Adam and proceeded with discussions on what is system engineering, what is a system, what is a system of system, how is it different from family of systems, and system engineering management processes. It is one of the all important foundations in the education of system engineers. If you never had the time to read of the System Engineering or Software Engineering standards or the budget to buy the standards, this was the tutorial to come and learn and ask your questions. John Clark ended the day with a review of the INCOSE Certified Systems Engineering Professional (CSEP) process, benefits of getting a certificate, and his upcoming webinar study group. See the CSEP article in this newsletter for additional details. The Jan INCOSE-LA meeting on Jan 16 was a 45 minute preview of the material. Many of the slides are copyrighted with IEEE, ISO, EIA, ANSI diagrams, with permission granted to John Clark to use during the tutorials.
