A Multi-Disciplinary Research Approach, Illustrated by the Boderc Project

abstract Research of Multi-Disciplinary subjects is complicated by its nature. Systems Engineering is the application area of the research results. Systems Engineering is applied in industrial or commercial domains. The drivers and culture in these domains differ quite a lot from the drivers of the (academic) research community.

We will discuss and illustrate a research approach called Industry-as-laboratory. We will discuss how to get from industrial problem to a research hypothesis, and how to validate the hypothesis.
