项目摘要

Systems Engineering is concerned with systems thinking and taking a systems approach to the transformation of the UK's manufacturing and service industries. It brings together high-value engineering disciplines whose products could deliver a step change in business benefit and provide the urgent transformational changes/new approaches needed by industry in order to survive and secure a competitive edge. Unfortunately, technology alone cannot provide the answers - instead systems engineering has the potential to deliver innovative solutions through the integration of people, processes, technologies and business practice. The term 'Systems engineering' is used here, to indicate the broad area of relevant research including complexity science, systems science and systems engineering, and has deliberately steered clear of a precise definition. Systems engineering spans the fields of aerospace, automotive, biological systems, built environment, construction, cyber-security, defence, energy, environment, healthcare, homeland security, manufacturing, rail, security, transport, utilities (gas electricity & water). Whilst aspects of systems research in the UK are broad, multi-disciplinary and vibrant, it urgently needs to develop coherence, leadership and focus to stay ahead of competition from other countries. In order to improve the UK's standing in the field, the UK urgently needs to develop more potential future leaders (both in academia and industry). The proposed systems network (Systems-NET) will enable a strategic and long lasting alliance with a view towards providing coordination and capability shaping of systems engineering within the UK as well as fostering development of future academic and industry leaders. Systems-NET is founded on the need to focus basic research at TRL 1-4, complemented by a strategically defined portfolio of network activity in applied research and technology transfer, building upon work of the EPSRC systems workshops within the EPSRC landscape of developing capability, shaping leaders for the future and formulating Grand Challenges for the UK's research community. The plan is to deliver a transformative route to safeguard long-term sustainability of systems engineering in the UK.

系统工程关注的是系统思维，并采取系统的方法来改造英国的制造业和服务业。它汇集了高价值的工程学科，其产品可以带来业务效益的阶段性变化，并提供行业为生存和确保竞争优势所需的紧迫转型变化/新方法。不幸的是，技术本身不能提供答案--相反，系统工程有可能通过人员、流程、技术和业务实践的集成来提供创新的解决方案。这里使用的“系统工程”一词，指的是相关研究的广泛领域，包括复杂性科学、系统科学和系统工程，并刻意回避准确的定义。系统工程涵盖航空航天、汽车、生物系统、建筑环境、建筑、网络安全、国防、能源、环境、医疗保健、国土安全、制造、铁路、安全、运输、公用事业(燃气、电力和水)等领域。尽管英国的系统研究领域广泛、多学科、充满活力，但它迫切需要培养一致性、领导力和专注力，以保持在来自其他国家的竞争中的领先地位。为了提高英国在该领域的地位，英国迫切需要培养更多具有潜力的未来领导者(包括学术界和工业界)。拟议的系统网络(Systems-Net)将实现战略和长期联盟，以期在英国境内提供系统工程的协调和能力塑造，并促进未来学术和行业领袖的发展。Systems-Net建立在需要集中于TRL 1-4的基础研究的基础上，辅以应用研究和技术转让方面的战略定义的网络活动组合，建立在EPSRC系统研讨会的工作基础上，开发能力，塑造未来的领导者，并为英国的研究界制定重大挑战。该计划将提供一条变革性的路线，以保障英国系统工程的长期可持续性。
