Subsystem boundaries in multidisciplinary development processes are set disciplinespecific, resulting in inconsistencies in module fitting. Based on a case study, harmonization of disciplines is elaborated as a solution. This aligns discipline structures and reduces effects on the variety in system structures.This implementation shows support for modular design and enables an integrated view as a systems-in-system.en2732-527X202225532562Cambridge University Presshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/collaborative designcomplex systemsmodular designmulti-/cross-/trans-disciplinary approachessystem of systemsTechnikConference Paper10.15480/882.452010.1017/pds.2022.25810.15480/882.4520Other
