SE4950 System of Systems Engineering
Systems of systems (SoS) arise when a number of independently developed systems are integrated to perform tasks of which the independent systems are incapable. This course discusses the special problems of engineering systems of systems. Topics include characteristics of SoS, engineering management of SoS, engineering methodology of SoS, SoS architecture, analysis of SoS, and tools for engineering SoS. This course uses a seminar approach with out-of-classroom reading and in-class discussions of the reading replacing traditional lectures. Case studies are used extensively.
