Abstract: | This paper establishes a concept for Product, Process, and Methodology (PPM) systematization to handle both structural complexity (often referred as hard complexity) and computational complexity (also referred as soft complexity) in product realization. A systematization methodology is proposed to handle both these complexities through a four-stage process: Planning, Systematization, Solution and Unification. Planning is the first stage where system specification is defined. Systematization is a systematic decomposition of the problem into a set of discrete sub-problems. There are three kinds of systematization that can be employed in product realization: Methodology systematization, Product systematization and Process systematization. |
