The Rise of Complex Systems

After WW II, we discovered the ability to create complex systems by building formal engineering organizations with thousands of members

Complexity is a measure of the number of parts and the design interactions among the parts

Complex System Design = Superplan

• The design of a system is a set of plans– for manufacturing the system

– for operating the system

– maintaining, distributing, marketing, and more

• The design of a complex system is distributed across many minds– can be beyond any individual’s comprehension

– plans link minds via overlaps

Comparison to Good Enough Design Methods

• Example of Value Conflicts

• Visualizing Lack of Coordination

• Cumulative Impact of Lack of Coordination

• Formalization

• Symptoms of Problems in the Good Enough Method– Search for Knees in Curves

– Aversity to Technical Risk

Brake Material + $11,000 - 90 lbs.Rudder - $10,000 + 190 lbs.

Net Impact + $ 1,000 + 100 lbs.

Differences in perceived value within a design team lead to choices that, taken together, are clearly lose-lose

Complex Adaptive Systems

• Definition

– Complex: Many interacting parts, complex interactions

– Adaptive: Patterned by a schema (design) which evolves in response to the environment and the system itself

– Autonomous: Emergent behavior, unplanned and unpredictable (ungovernable)

• Evolution of Engineered Systems

• Managing Autonomous Evolution

Autonomous Development

Managing Complex System Development is like planting a tree

not like building a house

You may provide resources to encourage fruitful development, and you may prune, or stop the development, but you cannot anticipate or force the exact outcome

Conclusion — Designing the Best

• Know Yourself

– Understand why one design is better than another• Clearly, objectively, consistently, formally

– Requires articulation of values (worthwhile exercise for $1 billion pgm)

– No need to search for “knee in the curve”

• Benefit

– > 50% reduction in cost, or equivalent improvement in performance

– Robustness in the face of technical risk• Reduced development cost and time

• Fully utilize our technical edge
