Constrained systems are systems that operate under specific limitations or restrictions, which can be physical, operational, or regulatory in nature. Understanding and managing these constraints is crucial for optimizing performance, ensuring efficiency, and achieving desired outcomes within the system's boundaries.

Constrained Systems

Specific limitations

Specific restrictions

Physical constraints

Operational Constraints

Regulatory constraints are the legal and policy limitations imposed by authorities that govern how businesses and industries operate, ensuring compliance with standards and protecting public interests. These constraints can significantly impact operational flexibility, innovation, and strategic decision-making within organizations.

Regulatory Constraints

Optimizing Performance

Ensuring efficiency

Achieving Desired Outcomes

System boundaries define the limits of a system, distinguishing what is inside the system from the external environment. They are crucial for understanding interactions, inputs, and outputs, and for determining the scope of analysis and control within a system.
