Context-Dependent Research Agenda for Systems Engineering in 2050
摘要
Systems engineering 2050 is a project for planning a research agenda for systems engineering methods and tools for developing systems in 2050. It is uncommon to look far into the future in a fast-moving technological world and context and identify how systems would look like at that time and what we would need to develop them. Such a project is always placed in a context that determines its focus, budget, and, consequently, its outcome. We describe the methodology of this research that had to be developed for executing it and our insight about systems in 2050 and the challenges they create. Subsequently, we briefly describe creating a research agenda for systems engineering in 2050 that calls for a collaborative community effort.
