1 Systems Approach at the IEC International Electrotechnical Commission

2 The Systems Standardisation at IEC SYSTEMS APPROACH SYSTEMS APPROACH at IEC SYSTEMS: SEG, SyC and SRG

3 Why a Systems Approach? A phone years ago Products become multifunctional A phone today Music, photos, video, GPS, Internet 2G, 3G, 4G, WIFI, Bluetooth, NFC Touch screen, battery, USB, HDMI eventually you can still make a call with it! An ever increasing number of technologies and standards are involved

4 Why a Systems Approach? Complexity of Technologies Multiplicity and convergence of technologies Large-scale infrastructures Need for inter-operability Many new and emerging markets An ever increasing number of technologies and standards are involved Photo credit:

5 Why a Systems Approach? A new level of collaboration Traditional TC to TC bilateral liaisons have reached their limits in such cases Need for a larger collaboration platform Need to outreach other standardization organizations Photo adapted from

6 Some useful terms and expression System a purposeful structure that consists of interrelated and interdependent elements each of which can affect its behaviour or property and that together produce results not obtainable by the elements alone. Systems thinking a way of understanding complex situations by looking at them as combinations of systems Systems science a collection of disciplines that have created useful knowledge by applying systems thinking and the scientific method to different aspects of the system domains Systems approach a way of tackling real-world problems which uses the tools of system science to enable systems to be engineered and used.

7 Systems Engineering, the Dawn Architecture and Military Engineering during Roman Empire Marcus Vitruvius Pollio, De Architectura Julius Caesar, de Bello Gallico (Book IV), on the construction of a wooden bridge on Rhine river Battle of Thapsus in 46 BC in Caesar's African campaign. Vitruvian Man (Leonardo da Vinci) Recognition for the role of the man in the system

8 The Rise of Systems Engineering After 2 nd WW, in the US a large effort in the development of Systems Engineering processes and methodologies DoD, Rand Corp., NASA, Space Industry INCOSE and ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288:2015 Systems and software engineering -System life cycle processes

9 Systems Approach in Future Challenges Systems Approach is central when aiming at improved system capabilities and quality of life The awareness of the criticality of the human element in complex systems The growth of software functionality in systems Ambitious projects! Smart services Smart hospitals Smart energy grids Smart cities Systems of Systems (SoSs). Smart cities Systems Approach helps to address risks deriving from relying on: immature technologies combinations of technologies with incompatible objectives/ assumptions.

10 There is no one-size-fits-all approach Systems Engineering is increasingly needed but increasingly challenged in the quest to make future systems scalable, stable, adaptable, and humane.

11 The Systems Approach at IEC: A collaboration platform Andriy Popov 123RF.com Top-down approach starting at the system rather than at the product level To address the complexity

12 The Systems Approach at IEC: A collaboration platform Andriy Popov 123RF.com Engaging TCs, and not directing Complementary to existing TCs, and not competing 12

13 the IEC Systems Approach Systems Evaluation Groups (SEG) Systems Committees (SyC) Systems Resources Group (SRG)

14 Systems Evaluation Group (SEG) Evaluates if the Systems approach is relevant for the problem to be addressed A larger, open group used in the first stage of systems development Engages the community of experts and identifies the relevant stakeholders Defines the general architecture and boundaries of the problem to be addressed Reports to SMB (2 years approx. lifetime)

15 SEG 4: SEGs established Systems Evaluation Group - Low Voltage Direct Current Applications, Distribution and Safety for use in Developed and Developing Economies SEG 6: Systems Evaluation Group - Non- traditional Distribution Networks / Microgrids SEG 7: SEG 8: SEG 9: Smart Manufacturing Communication Technologies and Architectures of Electrotechnical Systems Smart Home/Office Building Systems

16 Systems Committee (SyC) An SyC can publish international standards, as well as other IEC deliverables It functions generally in the same manner as a conventional TC ( except extended liaisons to reach out to other SDOs) It operates at the same level as a TC The Secretariat is with the IEC Central Office (increased neutrality towards TCs and NCs) 16

17 SyC Smart Cities: SyCs established Electrotechnical aspects of Smart Cities SyC Smart Energy: Standardization in the field of Smart Energy Coordination and guidance in the areas of Smart Grid Including interaction in the areas of Heat and Gas SyC AAL Active Assisted Living: Enable accessibility of AAL Systems and user interfaces Enable cross-vendor interoperability of AAL systems, products and components SyC LVDC: Low Voltage Direct Current and Low Voltage Direct Current for Electricity Access 17

18 Systems Resource Group (SRG) SRG PROFILE A unique group populated by Experts in systems architecture, use cases, terminology and semantics Guides the development and the use of System tools and software applications Populated by volunteers and IEC staff SG5, SEG3 AAL, SyC AAL, Convenor WG1-SyC AAL TC57 convenor - SyC Smart Energy WG3 roadmap convenor Secretary IEC SC3D, Convener IEC SC3D/ WG2, IEC CDD

19 Systems Resource Group (SRG) SRG MEMBERS MANYPHAY VIENGKHAM Convenor (US) GENNARO RUGGIERO Secretary (IEC) PETER GODWIN (IEC) JOANNA GOODWIN (IEC) Systems Engineering, SG3 Smart Grid Mapping Tool, SEG Smart City SyC LVDC, SyC Smart Cities IEC Head of IT Strategy & Operations Technical Officer TC1, terminology, SyC AAL ROLF APEL (DE) WG5 Use Case Model, SyC Smart Energy CYRIL EFFANTIN (FR) TC8/WG5, IEC 62913, Use Case Methodology, UML, and Modeling ALEXANDER SAMARIN (CH) SEG Smart Cities, Semantics CARLEE BISHOP (US) Exec. Director, Professional Masters Degree in Applied Systems Engineering HIROKAZU TANAKA (JP) LAURENT GUISE (FR) REINHARD NERKE MARION GOTTSCHALK IEC YP (GERMANY) SG5, SEG3 AAL, SyC AAL, Convenor WG1-SyC AAL TC57 convenor - SyC Smart Energy WG3 roadmap convenor Secretary IEC SC3D, Convener IEC SC3D/ WG2, IEC CDD

20 SRG FOCUS

21 SRG Systems Process Flow

22 SRG Online Guide ABOUT THE WIKI SITE The SRG Resource site is intended to provide IEC Systems Work stakeholders general information about SRG, Systems Approach guidelines, access to tips/tools, shared best practices, and other information to assist committees working on complex systems. ADVANTAGES Efficient and quicker information turn-around Platform for readers to respond and share best practices using blog and feedback tools. Confluence is a tool already used by the IEC tool internally and was a quick deployment for SRG. Allows IEC to explore another means of content sharing (besides PDF/Word documents circulation)
