Abstract :
This paper is concerned with outlining a system theory for the engineering of computer-based systems (ECBS), and deducing policies for ECBS process management from it. We first review the scope and strategic state of a discipline of ECBS and motivate the need for an engineering theory. Next, we investigate the nature of conceptual work by emphasizing general modeling theory and concurrent modeling support. Furthermore, we investigate design work by emphasizing general design theory for computer-based systems based on service orientation and reuse-oriented infrastructures
