The F119 Engine: a Success Story of Human Systems Integration in Acquisition
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Department of Defense recently mandated the incorporation of Human Systems Integration (HSI) early in the acquisition cycle to improve system performance and reduce ownership cost. However, little documentation of successful examples of HSI within the context of systems engineering exists, making it difficult for the acquisition community to disseminate and apply best practices. This article presents a case study of a large Air Force project that represents a successful application of HSI. The authors explore the influence of both the Air Force and the project contractor. Additionally, they identify top-level leadership support for integrating HSI into systems engineering processes as key to HSI success, reinforcing the importance of treating HSI as an integral part of pre-Milestone A activities. 2 8 4 | A Publication of the Defense Acquisition University www.dau.mil

Economics of Human Systems Integration : The Pratt & Whitney F 119 Engine
Human Systems Integration is a comprehensive management and technical approach for addressing the human element in weapon system development and acquisition. The primary objective of human systems integration is to integrate the human as a critical system element, regardless of whether humans in the system function as individuals, teams, or organizations. This discipline seeks to treat humans a...
متن کاملCritical Success Factors for Data Virtualization: A Literature Review
Data Virtualization (DV) has become an important method to store and handle data cost-efficiently. However, it is unclear what kind of data and when data should be virtualized or not. We applied a design science approach in the first stage to get a state of the art of DV regarding data integration and to present a concept matrix. We extend the knowledge base with a systematic literature review ...

متن کاملOptimal Idle Speed Control of a Natural Aspirated Gasoline Engine Using Bio-inspired Meta- heuristic Algorithms
In order to lowering level of emissions of internal combustion engines (ICEs), they should be optimally controlled. However, ICEs operate under numerous operating conditions, which in turn makes it difficult to design controller for such nonlinear systems. In this article, a generalized unique controller for idle speed control under whole loading conditions is designed. In the current study, in...
