The components of a command, control and communications (C3) system have evolved from highly sophisticated forms of electronic hardware and software innovations. Modern C3 systems such as the Joint Tactical Information Data System (JTIDS) or Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS), incorporate a wide assortment of computers, CRT displays, communications equipment and data processing systems. These systems are developed and integrated through the means of highly proficient system engineering processes. This thesis addresses the elements of basic creative and design processes that contribute to systems engineering methodology. This thesis discusses the various stages of the system engineering process which serve to integrate the design and development of such large scale systems. A case study, ?CINCCENT Ground Mobile Command Post,? is presented as an example of the system engineering process
