SYSE.18:2 - Problem
An integrating team needs answers to seven practical questions:
- Which shared use, conditions, interval, and engineering decision are at issue?
- Which actual Systems can defeat the use by changing, failing, withdrawing, or withholding a result?
- Which direct relation connects each System to the shared use, and what does that relation change?
- Which Agent controls each relevant decision, and what authority, permission, or escalation relation obtains?
- Which configurations, interfaces, capacities, timings, commitments, and evidence make coordination possible?
- What can the integrating Agent change, and which decisions must come from other Agents?
- What actual observation would show that the changed arrangement works for this use?
Missing answers produce four recurring errors: interface syntax is mistaken for interoperability, an agreement for performance, a constituent label for parthood, or an integration team for authority over Systems it does not govern.
