Document Summary
Find a solution, but continue to work to improve it over and over. Many solutions to an open ended problem. **engineering design: identifying problems, solving them, and implementing the solutions. Before a problem can be solved , it must be identified. Needs should be categorized and defined in a statement of requirements (sor) Evaluate the present state and determining how it differs from the goal state. System design deals with the arrangement of available products into a combination that gives the desired result. A residential building is a complex system consisting of many components and products. A tool shed is not a complex system, it is a product it still has to be designed though. Deals with design, testing, manufacturing and sale of goods (usually mass produced) Some products are complex systems (space shuttle), others are not (can opener, nail clipper). The vagueness allows the design process to become open ended. Often, the need is written in a statement of.
