Do the same disciplines apply to software and hardware? For example, does software “break” in the way that hardware does? Does it break without warning and unpredictably at all?

EMA 620 Module Six Worksheet

In this course, you will be asked to respond to a series of short-response questions. In this module, these short-response questions will allow you to check your understanding of the “ilities” of system engineering.

This worksheet will be graded with the Module Six Assignment Rubric.

Do the same disciplines apply to software and hardware? For example, does software “break” in the way that hardware does? Does it break without warning and unpredictably at all?

Your response:

Contrast the “traditional” ilities of reliability and maintainability with those of human factors and environmental engineering. In what ways are they similar? In what ways are they different?

Your response:

Why do you think that the ilities are considered a part of systems engineering rather than design?

Your response:
