Configuration of integrated security system

This paper focuses on modular hierarchical design of configuration for an integrated security system. Hierarchical morphological design approach is used to search for Pareto-effective design solutions. An applied example involves the following: hierarchical (tree-like) model of the security system, design alternatives for system components/parts, criteria for the selection of the design alternatives, solving process as selection of the design alternatives and their synthesis into composite decisions as Pareto-effective solutions. System improvement/reconfiguration and multistage design are considered as well.
