    Credits: 3 Cross-Listed with ECE 673 Introduces modeling and analysis of discrete event dynamical systems. Course covers elements of discrete mathematics and then focuses on Petri Net models and their basic properties. Relation to other discrete event models of dynamical systems. Prerequisites SYST 611 or ECE 521, or permission of instructor. Hours of Lecture or Seminar per week 3 Hours of Lab or Studio per week 0
  • 3.00 Credits

    Credits: 3 Cross-Listed with ECE 674 Intensive study of relationships between different types of architecture representations and methodologies used to obtain them. Approaches based on systems engineering constructs, such as structured analysis and software engineering constructs, including object orientation, are used to develop architecture representations or views and to derive an executable model of the information architecture. Executable model is then used for behavior analysis and performance evaluation. Roles of systems architect and systems engineer are discussed. Examples from current practice including the C4ISR architectures are used. Prerequisites SYST 619/ECE 672 and SYST 620/ECE 673 or permission of instructor.
