The Theory of System Health Management

Johnson, Stephen B.

This chapter provides an overview of system health management (SHM), and a theoretical framework for SHM that is used throughout the book. SHM includes design and manufacturing techniques as well as operational and managerial methods, and it also involves organizational, communicative, and cognitive features of humans as social beings and as individuals. The chapter will discuss why all of these elements, from the technical to the cognitive and social, are necessary to build dependable human–machine systems. The chapter defines key terms and concepts for SHM, outlines a functional framework and architecture for SHM operations, describes the processes needed to implement SHM in the system lifecycle, and provides a theoretical framework to understand the relationship between the different aspects of the discipline. It then derives from these and the social and cognitive bases some design and operational principles for SHM.
