Systems engineering - coordination and best practice guidelines for REACH system integration activities and standards research

In REACH, WP6 focusses on systems engineering and testing aspects such as system integration, verification, validation, and optimization. The present Deliverable (associated with Task T6.1) is concerned in a cross sectional manner with the overall methods, best practices, standards, cross-compatibility, and coordination/planning of system integration activities. REACH states a complex system of systems where individual project partners develop the individual systems (e.g. Touchpoints) and sub-systems (e.g. sensors) that need to be integrated with each other. To ensure a proper cross-compatibility (e.g. with Philips HSDP and other platforms that have the potential to establish our foothold in the EU in health care ICT-platforms), interfacing and integration of systems/sub-systems to a functional system of systems a set of tools and methods is introduced. Furthermore, based on the in WP1 developed Touchpoints and Engine concept, DIN (together with the in the development activities involved partners) conducted an identification analysis, and assessment of standards that are potentially relevant for the development of Touchpoints, Engine, and the resulting horizontal and vertical (e.g. system-system and human-system) interfaces. The identification of applicable standards in this early development phase will spur an efficient system engineering process. Finally Following the outcomes of Deliverable T1.4/D4 and the in the present deliverable in Chapter 2 clarified systems engineering approach, the testing approach was decomposed and an initial testing plan set up in tune with the REACH V-Model approach. Beyond this deliverable report, T6.1 (as a task that continues up to Month 48) will facilitate the uptake of the introduced guidelines, the subsequent detailing of interfaces and specifications by the implementation work teams (e.g. the Touchpoints/Engine associated work teams), and the monitoring of the technology maturation and integration processes.     «
