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