- Smart People: Alex Bayen, Professor, Systems Engineering, UC Berkeley
- Imagine a commute without traffic congestion. Alex Bayen is currently working on the Mobile Millennium project, a traffic information system that uses GPS inside phones to gather traffic information, process it, and then broadcast it back in real-time, so people can have instantaneous traffic updates. This video is originally from...

- SysML and Systems Engineering Applied to UML-Based SoC Design
- UML is gaining increased attention as a system design language. This is confirmed by several reported experiences and current standardization activities such as the SysML initiative, which extends UML toward the Systems Engineering domain. This paper summarizes the main features of SysML and analyzes the synergies between Systems Engineering and...

- UML 2.0-Based Systems Engineering Using a Model-Driven Development Approach
- This paper describes a UML 2.0-based process that systems engineers can use to capture requirements and specify architecture. The process uses the UML exclusively for the representation and specification of system characteristics. The essential UML artifacts include use case diagrams, sequence diagrams, activity diagrams, statechart diagrams, and structure diagrams. The...

- Evolutionary Project Management Methods: How to Deliver Quality on Time in Software Development and Systems Engineering Projects
- Software developers systematically fail to manage projects within the constraints of cost, schedule, functionality and quality. Solutions have been developed during the past 35 years, with important results published already some 15 years ago. Still, in practice not much has changed. The challenge is to find ways to catch the...
