Model-Based User Needs Analysis paper presented at SETE 2011 conference

Today Michael Waite presented the paper Model-Based User Needs Analysis to the 2011 Systems Engineering and Test and Evaluation Conference (SETE2011) at the Rydges Lakeside Hotel in Canberra. The paper, co-authored with Paul Logan, addresses the often overlooked, but critical, phase of the systems engineering lifecycle – the generation and analysis of user needs.

This paper is based on the principles developed during capability definition work, performed by Aerospace Concepts, on several large-scale capability acquisition projects where a model-based systems engineering approach has been applied.

The importance of understanding the needs of the end-user, and the elicitation and analysis of these needs in a model-based environment, is presented in this paper.
