Formulating and structuring a system provide methods for relating what the system consists of in the mind of the persons or group desiring it; what it means in terms of the persons or group designing and building it; and in terms of the persons or groups operating, using and servicing it. They provide a set of "reasonable" parts and methods of relating them so that the many persons working on the system can understand the whole in sufficient detail for their purposes, and their particular parts in explicit detail so that they may contribute their best efforts to the extent required. A further purpose of system formulation is to recognize the magnitude of the job, including the possible pitfalls. (en) |
