System of Systems Engineering

This groundbreaking book brings together the viewpoints of key global players in the field to define challenges in System of Systems (SoS) and Systems of Systems Engineering (SoSE) and to provide possible solutions. Each chapter has been contributed by an international expert, and topics covered include modeling, simulation, architecture, the emergence of SoS and SoSE, net-centricity, standards, management, and optimization, with various applications to defense, transportation, energy, the environment, healthcare, service industry, aerospace, robotics, infrastructure, and information technology.
