a)
The requirements of the system provide constraints and performance ranges for the system in terms of inputs and outputs, and its system-wide and technology-related characteristics. The requirements also state the tradeoffs that the stakeholders are willing to make in the development of the system and the constraints and performance ranges associated with testing the system. In defining the design problem how do the necessary concepts come together?

b)
From the System Engineering perspective as defined by Kossiakof et al, what criteria should a life cycle meet? And when is a system’s state said to have attained equilibrium and stability?

c)
RAS is the main tool that helps to maintain consistency between functional architecture and designs based on those architectures. Briefly discuss using a system of your choice as an example (eg. UAV).
