Matrix of Implementation Examples

The following matrix maps the SEBoK Systems Engineering Implementation Examples to knowledge areas in the Systems Engineering Body of Knowledge (SEBoK). It provides both a list of potential systems engineering implementation examples for topics of interest, and a list of relevant topics for each implementation example. Since the number of topics in the SEBoK is extensive, only a subset are included here for clarity. For additional information, see the implementation example of interest and the corresponding SEBoK topic.

The following abbreviations shown in Table 1 (Developed for BKCASE) are used for the implementation examples:
