[[Concept Definition]] is a knowledge area in the SEBoK; it includes systems engineering activities which occur before any formal definition of the [[System-of-Interest (glossary)|system-of-interest]] (SoI) is developed such as [[Mission Analysis (glossary)| analysis]] and definition of [[Stakeholder Requirement (glossary)|stakeholder needs and requirements]]. This generally defines the problem statement which initiates a "concept stage" as discussed in INCOSE (2012). In the SEBoK, [[System Definition]] is used to discuss the detailed description of a solution system.

This definition was developed for the SEBoK.

Discussion

Concept Definition is a knowledge area in the SEBoK; it includes systems engineering activities which occur before any formal definition of the system-of-interest (SoI) is developed such as analysis and definition of stakeholder needs and requirements. This generally defines the problem statement which initiates a "concept stage" as discussed in INCOSE (2012). In the SEBoK, System Definition is used to discuss the detailed description of a solution system.
