Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: 

  • Define each design consideration using scientific and mathematical language where appropriate and explain the boundaries of each consideration. 
  • Identify relevant metrics that can be used to assess if the system design is satisfactory based-on each design consideration. 
  • List design principles or strategies that can be used to improve the system design based-on each design consideration. 
  • Demonstrate how to allocate reliability and maintainability requirements from the system to sub-systems. 
  • Demonstrate how to allocate maintainability between preventative and corrective types to meet requirements. 
  • Determine suitable reliability and maintainability requirements to achieve the required system availability. 
  • Explain the trade-offs that exist with the design considerations when one consideration is improved in the system design.
