, mechanical, aerospace, andchemical engineering involve the study of interconnected dynamic systems modeled bydifferential or difference equations, such as feedback control systems. The traditional frameworkfor the analysis and design of such systems is based on the transfer function, which modelssingle-input single-output (SISO) linear time-invariant (LTI) systems. It can be defined by takingthe Laplace transform of a differential equation (in continuous time) or the z-transform of adifference equation (in discrete time).In the continuous LTI case, the differential equation may be written the form ua(D) = yb(D),where u ∈ C∞ is the input signal, y ∈ C∞ is the output signal, a, b ∈ R[x] are real polynomials withb = 0, and D is the differential

: one at a large automobile manufacturer and the second involvingengineers at several aerospace companies and public sector engineering departments.At the automobile manufacturer, researchers focused on the socialization of engineers and therole of co-ops and internships in the "on-boarding" of entry level engineers. These researchersconducted structured interviews with 24 young engineers (between six and 24 months on the job)and six supervisors. All interviews took place at the worksite. Employee interviews lasted 60-90minutes, and focused on how employees applied their technical knowledge to problem-solving,and how they learned the prevailing culture and interactions of their workgroup. Interviews withsupervisors lasted 30-45 minutes, and

At Stanford University, an aerospace engineer, Claire Tomlin and amolecular biologist, Jeffrey Axelrod, teamed up to sing the praises of recent efforts aimed at“understanding biology by reverse engineering the control”35. They summarize an extensivereverse engineering study of the mechanism used by bacterium E. coli to combat heat shock36,claiming that it “is just what a well-trained control engineer would design, given the signals andthe functions available.” Viewing the heat shock response as a control engineer would, theresearchers developed a reduced order mathematical model to analyze the dynamics of each ofthe interacting modules. This analysis then motivated a series of simulation experiments on alarger mathematical model. The

. His research interests are in the fields of Heat Transfer, Electronic Package Cooling and Energy Conservation. He has numerous publications and conference proceedings in these areas. Dr. Harris is an active member of the faculty in both academia and in his community. Dr. Harris has worked extensively with youth, encouraging them to pursue college degrees and to major in STEM related fields. He strongly advocates and recognizes that an education is the key factor that separates the ”haves” from the ”have nots”. Prior to joining the faculty at PVAMU, Dr. Harris served as Associate Professor and Associate Chairman for the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Texas at Arlington.

In view of these challenges, a growing number of companies turn to the Systems Engi-neering (SE) approach, a discipline initially reserved for big defense and aerospace companies.”Systems engineering is an interdisciplinary approach and means to enable the realization ofsuccessful systems. It focuses on defining customer needs and required functionalities early inthe development cycle, documenting requirements, and then proceeding with design synthesisand system validation while considering the complete problem”.[2]According to Wasson [3] ”Unfortunately, the engineering of systems, performed in many or-ganizations is often characterized as chaotic, ineffective, and inefficient.
