  • Abstract
    System Theories, analysis and design have been deployed within every corporate function and within a broad section of businesses and markets. Systems thinking involve changing paradigms about the way the world works, the way corporations function, and the human role in each. In systems thinking, analysis and design we look for interrelationships among the elements of a system. System engineering technology involves the interactions of science, an organization, and its environment as well as the information and knowledge bases that support each. The purpose of systems engineering is to support organizations that desire improved performance. Software Process Simulation is directly linked to software process improvement. Organizations can use software process simulation at all levels of maturity to obtain significant benefits. The aim is to determine how to usefully model a teaching-learning system for a specific course taught to a fresh graduate, and use simulation and modeling to predict consequences of changes to the process.
