SYSE 515 Jesse Ridenour

    My example is from a work experience I had estimating a maintenance action for cost and duration. This is done by taking the base line scope of the job or requirements and matching them with the required timeline to determine what inputs and outputs can be expected accomplishing the task.  Lets call this job X. the first thing we do is to go into our database and pull history on job X and see if we have done this work before. Once we have the history it may look something like this.           #1` Job X.      20 hours.       2 heads.         2 days            #2 Job X.       15 hours.       2 heads          2 days           #3 Job X.       24 hours        1 head            2...

 Hello, My name is Jesse Ridenour, I am a student at Embry-Riddle Aeronautics University and I am currently working on my MSSE degree.  I have over 25 years experience working on, around and with all types of aircraft and aircraft systems. I also have experience managing aviation related projects and programs.  This blog is here to display various information I plan to research during the completion of my current course SYSE 515 Math Applications in System Engineering.  I am looking forward to hearing what others can provide into my research and studies and perhaps gain a new perspective on the various topics posted in this blog.  ---Jesse R
