A multidisciplinary approach to System Engineering

Complex or innovative systems engineering requires multidisciplinary approach and vision to identify mission and system requirements, define possible solutions in terms of architectures, technologies and components selection and focus the development or design towards the best trade-off balancing performances, economics and time.

Dynamic interactions and interfaces analysis are key aspects, together with mastering specification, development (when needed) and use of advanced design methods and software tools.

For industrial innovation, moreover, it is fundamental to explore by open minded approach combined with criticism and concreteness the novelties and progress of enabling and emerging technologies.

All the above belong to SATE DNA.
