Systems engineering— A retrospective view

James H. Brill

Systems Engineering, 1998, vol. 1, issue 4, 258-266

Abstract: While it is possible to link systems thinking and the practice of systems engineering to ancient cultures, this paper seeks to trace the modern history of systems engineering from 1950 to 1995. This retrospective view is intended to provide readers an insight and appreciation of the past contributions of a few of the many researchers, educators, system thinkers, and organizations to the evolutionary development and application of systems engineering. Space and my own limitations prevent the recognition of many more individuals and organizations that have made significant contributions to the systems engineering body of knowledge. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
