The system tutorial covers system engineering
and life cycle management and presents the application of ISO/IEC 15288
(Systems engineering – System life cycle processes). This tutorial is
primarily for those who are too busy with their work and families to get
an education in systems engineering but need to apply it right away; it
prepares them well for an advanced degree. Managers will benefit from the
tutorial if they wish to treat their organizations or programs as systems.
Acquirers and suppliers will benefit from the tutorial in forming
agreements regarding system products and services. Computer scientists and
software engineers will get a broad perspective of systems and systems
engineering, to which they are expected to contribute. Applied scientists
may use the tutorial to plan and develop their projects as systems. Of
course, system engineers and managers should apply it to evolve their
systems or study it as a refresher course. Please review the syllabus.
The software tutorial explains ISO/IEC 12207
(Software engineering – Software life cycle processes) to managers and
engineers of software engineering projects and presents its application to
the acquisition and supply of software. Please review the syllabus.
The tutor will mail the host well in advance a CD
containing the tutorial slides in Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 for each
attendee. The tutor will use a computer and a projector to show the
slides. Copies of the standards may be purchased at <sales@iso.org>.
Regardless of the number of attendees, the costs are US $2,000 for the
five-day system tutorial and $1,200 for the three-day software tutorial.
The host will be responsible for paper copies and a classroom for the
attendees and for the tutor’s travel expenses. Alternatively, the tutor
can convene a tutorial in the Washington, DC, metro area.

About Dr. Raghu Singh:
Prior to his retirement from the U. S. Civil Service, Raghu Singh served
as a physicist, mathematician, system engineer, project manager, and chief
scientist for the NASA, Army, Navy, and FAA. He participated in the
standardization activities of the DOD, NATO, FAA, IEEE, and ISO/IEC. He
presented papers, seminars, and tutorials and published papers in physics,
aeronautics, systems engineering, and software engineering.
Dr. Singh founded the ISO/IEC systems engineering
standardization project; as its first convener (chairman), he designed and
wrote the first working draft of ISO/IEC 15288:2002. He was the Navy
member of the MIL-STD-499B (Systems engineering) working group. As its
editor, Dr. Singh designed and wrote the first working drafts of ISO/IEC
12207:1995 and handbook ISO/IEC 15271. He was the project manager of IEEE
12207.0/1/2 development. He was the US member of the NATO AQAP 150/159
(Software quality assurance) working group. As the chairman of the Joint
Logistics Commanders’ Systems Engineering Group and Computer Systems
Management Group, he managed several standards: MIL-STD-498 (Software
development and documentation); DOD-STD-2167A (Software development);
DOD-STD-2168 (Software quality program); and associated handbooks and
documentation formats (DIDs).
Raghu Singh has an M.S. in Systems Engineering and a
Ph.D. in Physics.
