Document Summary

A system is an entity that maintains its existence and functions as a whole through the interaction of its parts. If the parts don"t interact, the system doesn"t exist. Each part of the system reinforces another part: replacing an aspect of the system is still changing the system. Is changed if you add or subtract a part: has interconnecting parts that work together, the arrangement of the pieces/parts of the system is crucial, the behavior of the system depends on the total structure. If you change the structure, the behavior of the system changes. We do not think about the smaller systems until the larger system breaks down; we do not think about how a car works until a part of it breaks down. Small disturbances usually give way to larger issues; breaks that don"t work indicate a bigger problem.
