Steve’s Systems Engineering Blog

 

A no particular sequence of stuff that I find myself continually harping about.  So I thought I’d capture it in one place.

Most of this I consider to be universal “truths”.  And, most of it is not original with me.  We can blame my many mentors but especially; Mark Gerhardt, Kathy Morgan, Suzanne Bailey, and Ron Mandel.
