Chapter 4.5 Integration Flashcards
The purpose of the integration process is to assemble a system that is consistent with the architectural design.
What is the purpose of integration?
The purpose of the integration process is to assemble a system that is consistent with the architectural design.
This process combines system elements to form complete or partial system configurations in order to create a product specified in the system requirements.
Inputs to the integration process?
Interface requirements – both to internal and external system elements
System Elements
Accepted system (if the system of interest includes acquired system elements)
What information is included in system elements?
System Element Descriptions
System Element Documentation
What controls and enablers govern integration?
Applicable Laws & Regulations Industry Standards Agreements Project Procedures and Standards Project Directives Organization/Enterprise policies, procedures and standards Organizational/Enterprise infrastructure Project infrastructure Integration Enabling Systems (tools, facilities, verification equipment)
Outputs of the integration process?
Integration Strategy Integration Enabling System Requirements Integration Constraints on Design Integration Procedure Integrated System Interface Control Documents (ICDs) Integration Report
