Systems

Level One: System Analysis:

1. Is this a system?

If yes, tell what kind of system (Open or Closed) and explain why.

2. Draw the system showing the:

a. Boundaries b. Inputs c. Outputs d. Flows

 

Level Two: Interacting Systems Analysis

3.  Does the output of this system become an input of another system? If so, describe the system?

4. Is the input of matter or energy into this system the Same, Less or More then the output?

5. Are there any subsystems contained within this system? If so, identify these subsystems. If so, describe the larger system.

6. Is this system a subsystem of another, even larger system.
