System Analysis<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n
\n\t

The course is dedicated to system analysis \u2014 the initial stage of systems engineering, which covers the creation, implementation and development of technical and digital systems throughout their entire lifecycle. Special attention is given to forming system requirements, developing its functional structure and architecture, as well as to modelling and analysing the lifecycle of engineering solutions.<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n
\n\t \n

System analysis is presented as the initial stage of systems engineering \u2014 an engineering activity aimed at creating, implementing and developing technical and digital systems throughout their entire lifecycle. The discipline has a methodological character and focuses on developing students\u2019 systemic engineering thinking, which is essential for designing modern digital systems.<\/p>\n\n

During the course, students deepen their understanding of the nature of complex technical and cyber\u2011physical systems. They master methods for formulating engineering tasks and describing problem situations, learn to analyse stakeholders and system goals, and acquire skills in forming system requirements. The programme covers the development of a system\u2019s functional structure and architecture, modelling and analysing the lifecycle of engineering systems, as well as assessing the technological maturity of systems and technologies.<\/p>\n\n

The programme includes modern development models, including the V\u2011model of the system lifecycle (with design stages on the left side and verification\/integration on the right) and the spiral development model for iterative refinement of requirements and architecture. Engineering activity is viewed as lifecycle management, encompassing problem formulation, system design, component development and integration, implementation, operation, modernisation and decommissioning.<\/p>\n\n

A key element of the course is a cross\u2011cutting project that integrates theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Within this project, students select a domain of a digital or cyber\u2011physical system, describe the problem situation, analyse stakeholders, formulate system goals, develop requirements, build a functional structure, design an architectural concept, model the system lifecycle and assess its technological maturity.<\/p>\n\n

LLMs are actively used as multifunctional tools to support learning and practice. They serve as handbooks that explain key terms, analytical assistants that help formulate requirements and identify architectural solutions, and engineering opponents for the critical analysis of system models. At the same time, students learn to verify LLM recommendations, as the models may generate plausible but incorrect answers. This approach fosters a culture of critical use of LLM assistants in system analysis.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Main topics of the course:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

1. Engineering as creation of artificial systems \u2014 Introduction to engineering as a process of creating and developing artificial systems to solve societal problems, with a focus on the role of engineers in lifecycle management.<\/p>\n

2. Concept of a system and system boundaries \u2014 Explores the definition of a system, its elements and connections, and the importance of defining system boundaries and interactions with the environment.<\/p>\n

3. Problem situation formulation \u2014 Covers methods for identifying and describing problem situations and defining the context for the future system.<\/p>\n

4. System stakeholders \u2014 Examines different types of stakeholders (users, owners, developers, regulators) and how to analyse their expectations and potential conflicts of interest.<\/p>\n

5. System goals and goal tree \u2014 Introduces goal formulation as a key stage of system analysis and teaches how to build a hierarchical goal tree.<\/p>\n

6. System requirements \u2014 Focuses on functional and non\u2011functional requirements, constraints, and their role as the foundation for system design.<\/p>\n

7. Functional structure of a system \u2014 Covers functional decomposition: describing a system through a hierarchy of functions to reveal its structure and key processes.<\/p>\n

8. System architecture \u2014 Explains how architecture defines the component structure and interactions, and how to transition from requirements to design.<\/p>\n

9. Architectural system views \u2014 Discusses multiple architectural views (functional, informational, technical) to consider a system from different perspectives.<\/p>\n

10. System modelling \u2014 Introduces methods for building system models and the basics of model\u2011based systems engineering (MBSE) for analysing system structure before implementation.<\/p>\n

11. Digital models and digital twins \u2014 Compares digital models (formalised system descriptions) and digital twins (models of system behaviour during operation).<\/p>\n

12. System lifecycle \u2014 Outlines the main stages of a system\u2019s lifecycle (concept, development, implementation, operation, modernisation) and their importance in systems engineering.<\/p>\n

13. V\u2011model of systems engineering \u2014 Explains the V\u2011model linking design and verification stages, ensuring requirement traceability throughout the lifecycle.<\/p>\n

14. Technological maturity of a system \u2014 Teaches how to assess technology maturity using the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) scale, from idea to industrial operation.<\/p>\n

15. Spiral development of engineering systems \u2014 Covers iterative development, refining requirements and improving architecture through the spiral development model.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
