The INCOSE and ISO/IEC/IEEE definitions draw from this view of a system:
... an integrated set of elements, subsystems, or assemblies that accomplish a defined objective. These elements include products (hardware, software, firmware), processes, people, information, techniques, facilities, services, and other support elements. (INCOSE)
[4.1.46] ... combination of interacting elements orga-nized to achieve one or
more stated purposes. (ISO/IEC/ IEEE 15288) ✔ Ans - Chapter 2: What is the definition of a system?
