Abstract

ABSTRACT Much engineering work requires an outlook which must deal with technical detail within a wider framework of societal and environmental complexities. This calls for multiple points of view ranging from a broad context to localised detail, analogous to the use of a zoom lens. The paper ‘The Systems Stance’ provides an excellent practical way of handling complex system problems needing a range of viewpoints.

讨论David Elms的“系统立场”

许多工程工作需要一种观点，必须在更广泛的社会和环境复杂性框架内处理技术细节。这需要从广泛的背景到局部细节的多个视角，类似于变焦镜头的使用。论文“系统立场”提供了一种处理复杂系统问题的极好的实用方法，需要一系列的观点。

期刊介绍： Civil Engineering and Environmental Systems is devoted to the advancement of systems thinking and systems techniques throughout systems engineering, environmental engineering decision-making, and engineering management. We do this by publishing the practical applications and developments of "hard" and "soft" systems techniques and thinking. Submissions that allow for better analysis of civil engineering and environmental systems might look at: -Civil Engineering optimization -Risk assessment in engineering -Civil engineering decision analysis -System identification in engineering -Civil engineering numerical simulation -Uncertainty modelling in engineering -Qualitative modelling of complex engineering systems
