SYSE.18:8 - Common Failures and Repairs
These recurring failures hide a relation, deciding Agent, or evidence boundary:
| Failure | Repair |
|---|---|
| System of systems is treated as a kind and explanation | Recover actual Systems, use-relative relations, and decision boundaries. |
| Participation is treated as parthood | State the direct relation and keep Work, capability, commitment, interface, resource, and evidence claims separate. |
| Interface syntax is treated as interoperability | Obtain configuration-bound evidence that results are exchanged and usable. |
| Agreement is treated as performance | Separate commitment, later Work, delivered result, and fulfilment evidence. |
| Integrator is assumed to own constituent decisions | Name each deciding Agent and authority; state which decision each blocker prevents. |
| Decision record is treated as coordination change | Perform authorized Work and identify the actual transformation or relation before claiming a changed condition. |
| Decentralized is assumed to be better | Compare decision centres, operations, outcomes, and feedback for this use. |
| Model federation is treated as physical integration | Separate description consistency, actual configuration, integration Work, and operating evidence. |
