English abstract The objective of this article is to assess the implications of systems architecture on the establishment of organizational learning cycles , and its influence on possible forms of process integration . Dynamics of innovation of complex systems do not follow the pattern of mass - production industries . In complex systems industries there is no dominant design and each new product generation remains in a fluid phase. This article focuses on analysis of the dynamic phenomena that occur when a system per forms its functions with in the operational environment. By considering successive generations of the China - Brazil Earth Resources Satellite (CBERS) platform as a case study a stylized cognitive model is presented. It is argued that learning by using is practice - oriented epistemolog y to the extent that it requires the reflective confrontation of a previous stock of knowledge with that derived from praxis, which is c oncrete, dynamic and relational. Knowledge generation derived from lea r ning by using – taci t and explicit – crystallizes a common knowledge base , allowing the refinement of subsystems designs and interfaces through successive generation of products . Systems integration capability building requires a project - based organization in order to merge operating and learning processes in a multifunctional framework
