Systems Engineering Notes

This page contains a dated list of notes and decisions that emerged from the regular Systems Engineering Group meetings. The information is maintained here to resolve frequently asked questions and to document the rationale for engineering management decisions.

Electron-Ion Collider Global Requirements

This document provides the highest level requirements for the Electron-Ion Collider and addresses physics requirements, collider performance, integration, upgradability, statuatory compliance, efficiency, and reliability.

EIC Systems Engineering Management Plan

This document defines the management and engineering processes that have been implemented for the EIC and establishes the Systems Engineering approach that will be used. The described approach provides a framework for all systems engineering activities required to achieve the project goals, while still ensuring that safety, quality, and integration are addressed and controlled throughout the project lifecycle.

Naming Requirements

This document establishes the naming conventions for components in the Electron-Ion Collider facility. The nomenclature applies to operating devices in the facility that need to have a standard name to support interfaces and controls.

Requirements Management Plan

This document identfies the processes for managing the requirements of the Electron-Ion Collider project and defines how all requirements will be identified, controlled, managed, reviewed, approved, released, and revised.

EIC Interface Management Plan

This document defines the process that will be used to control and manage all technical interfaces for the EIC project.

Managing Interface Control Document Creation

This policy paper provides a very high-level outline of when interface control documents will be required within each Level 2 system. It describes how L3 and below systems will document there interfaces within their parent L2, and the additional documents that will be required for interfaces outside of their parent L2.

Interrogative Model for Deriving Interfaces

This document describes an approach for identifying categories of interfaces by asking questions about the subsystems and their requirements. It further provides a rudimentary list of parameters that are likely to be associated with each interface within a category.

General Detector Systems Integration Model

This document represents an early examination of the many steps involved in the design, development, and integration of detector systems as part of the EIC project.

Sub-Systems Dictionary

This table contains an annotated list of EIC sub-systems that includes their unique identifiers and a description of the sub-system. The sub-system identifiers provided here form the basis for the identifiers that are used in both the requirements documents and the interface definitions. The document is maintained by Walt Akers at Jefferson Lab.

Global Requirements

This page contains a list of global requirements that are applicable to systems and sub-systems throughout the project. These include design specific requirements such as detector acceptance, polarization and bunch parameters, as well as requirements related to environmental, safety, and regulartory demands. The document is maintained by the EIC Systems Engineering Group.
