Systems engineering or software engineering

In this exposition, i want to explain what is a system and the systems engineering; In the basic
way, can to define the system like a set of elements with a common objective, so the
engineering is the study, create, and imagine process with these characteristics. But like I
said, it’s a basic definition, actually our work is to see the details about functionality of world,
so initially, for to study the systems, were create some models like reductionism, mechanism
among which the GST emerged, that define the structure for the understanding of a system
not only seeing the functioning of each element in the system, but their work as a whole; In
this way we come to the study of the interference of all elements in the development of
systems themselves; what would enable the emergence of what we call a new approach, the
modern approach the complexity sciences; which has opened the study of biological,
chemical, physical and even artistic systems; with the study of patterns, or theory of chaos,
which can represent fractals, which are figures of self-similarity, or with the possibility that a
great change is generated from a small change.
An example of the systems that can be analyzed is the behavior of the animals, the music,
and even the physical phenomena in general, so, it is necessary to understand that although
the software, and the behavior of the computers, make up the most complex system
developed by the human, does not include all the systems to be analyzed; and thus the
analysis of these systems, natural in the majority of cases, helps to the creation of
simulations, performance improvements and even new process systems.
So, in the last times, we can to see the different theories for to study either kinds of system,
for understand the world and use this knowledge for create many things, not necessarily
software.
