These methodologies have to be tailored so that the principles can be well adapted to SW or IT industry where the prime focus is more on SW development rather than in the area of system engineering. The papers provides an insight into the system engineering practices and presents an agile framework that can be applied to the science of systems engineering while discussing the tools and methodologies that can be used to alleviate the process of achieving the business need.
