A System Is…
a whole that cannot be divided into independent parts
without losing its essential characteristics as a whole.
It follows from this definition that,
a system’s essential defining properties
are the product of the interactions of its parts,
not the actions of the parts considered separately.
Therefore,
when a system is taken apart,
or its parts are considered independently of each other,
the system loses its essential properties.
Furthermore, when performance of each part taken separately is improved,
the performance of the system as a whole may not be, and usually isn’t.

System Integration
• That part of the system engineering process that unifies the
product components and the process components into a whole

 Ensures that the hardware, software, and human system


components interact to achieve the system purpose and satisfy
the customer’s need

 Closely related to architecture – it includes the synthesis of the


subsystems, modules and components identified through
decomposition of the system during the architectural design

Mars Climate Orbiter (MCO)
Nine and a half months after launch, in September 1999,
MCO was to fire its main engine to achieve an elliptical orbit around Mars.

The spacecraft was to then skim through Mars’ upper atmosphere for several weeks in a
technique called aerobraking to reduce velocity and move into a circular orbit.

Mars Climate Orbiter Failure
On September 23, 1999 the MCO mission was lost
when it entered the Martian atmosphere on a lower than expected trajectory.

Mars Climate Orbiter Failure Report

This Phase I report addresses paragraph 4.A. of the letter establishing the
Mars Climate Orbiter (MCO) Mishap Investigation Board (MIB) (Appendix).
Specifically, paragraph 4.A. of the letter requests that the MIB focus on any
aspects of the MCO mishap which must be addressed in order to contribute
to the Mars Polar Lander’s safe landing on Mars. The Mars Polar Lander
(MPL) entry-descent-landing sequence is scheduled for
December 3, 1999

Mars Polar Lander

Mars Polar Lander (MPL) and the two Deep Space 2 (DS2) probes were
launched using a single launch vehicle from Kennedy Space Center on 3
January 1999. Upon arrival at Mars, communications ended according to plan
as the three spacecraft prepared to enter the Martian atmosphere.
Communications were scheduled to resume after the lander and the probes
were on the surface. Repeated efforts to contact all three continued for
several weeks to no avail.

Mars Polar Lander Failure Report
In the wake of the loss of the MCO mission, measures were taken by the
Laboratory…to incorporate findings from the various review boards as they
related to the success of the MPL mission. One of the activities involved the
creation of an MPL Mission Safety and Success Team (MSST), comprising over 50
senior JPL technical experts. This team was responsible for the creation of a fault
tree analysis for EDL, including safe transition into landed operations…While the
probable cause of the loss of MPL (premature trigger of touchdown sensor) was
identified as a potential failure mode by this fault-tree analysis prior to EDL, the
description of the software design and testing provided at that time by LMA did
not leave any concerns in the mind of the MSST.
Ultimately, it was discovered that the software did not behave in the manner
intended.

• Ensure that interfacing mechanical, electrical, or other elements fit together
and interact properly
• Specifications for each separate element must include permitted tolerances
(deviations from prescribed values) in the interacting quantities
– e.g., for bolts, the holes in each component must be specified within a
plus/minus tolerance of their nominal dimensions
• Tolerances must allow for the degree of precision of production machinery
as well as normal variations
• Too tight specification of tolerances will result in excessive rejects in
manufacture
• Too loose specification tolerances can cause fit failures with occasional
misalignments
Consider the use of engineering waivers to deviate from a certain
specification for initial quantity of production units to afford adequate time
to design and validate the change prior to release for production. There are
times when careful analysis reveals the effect of deviation on operational
effectiveness not sufficient to warrant cost of making the change.

Functions are placed on the diagonal and are described as verb noun (or verb object) pairs.
Functional interfaces (and flows) are in clockwise direction, e.g., F1  F2 indicates a flow from
F1 to F2 above the diagonal or F2  F1 below the diagonal. Flows may be primary or feedback.
Functional interfaces are items, not functions
