SystemComposition
SystemComposition is the study and practice of describing a system in terms of its constituent parts and the relationships among them. It is a foundational approach in systems engineering, software architecture, product design, and organizational planning, used to analyze, model, and construct complex entities. By decomposing a system into components, subsystems, and their interfaces, practitioners can reason about function, performance, and evolution at manageable levels of abstraction.
In SystemComposition, components are the building blocks that provide functionality. Interfaces define how components interact and
- Modularity and encapsulation
- Abstraction levels and granularity
- Interface contracts and versioning
- Topologies and patterns (for example layered, pipeline, client-server, microservice-like architectures)
Modeling approaches in SystemComposition cover structural and behavioral perspectives. Structural models describe components and their connections;
