Systems of Systems (SoS) are defined - amongst other distinguishing features - as a collection of component systems that produce results not achievable by the individual systems alone. But SoS is more than just a higher level focus on factors that are primarily concerned with the mechanics of data handling. SoS deals with the process of work-in-progress and how the design drives the implementation...
In the twenty-first century, mission success will require unprecedented interoperability among disparate constituent systems resulting in a System of Systems (SoS). Unlike traditional systems engineering where systems are created based on a set of user needs, a SoS is composed of multiple constituent systems, at various stages within their lifecycles (i.e. new start systems, systems in-development,...
This paper presents the characterisation of a concept System of Systems called the SmartPowerchair, in which existing pervasive technologies are integrated into a standard powered wheelchair to enhance the quality of life through independent living. Traditional Systems Engineering focuses on building the right system whereas System of Systems focuses on selecting the right combination of systems and...
