Modelling Integrated Systems Architectures

摘要

The Navy's Chief Engineering Office (RDA/CHENG) is attempting to establishrnan advanced methodology for performing “Capability-based” system acquisition. This requiresrnthe modelling of a "Mission-oriented" Battle-force where the contributions of each system, andrnfuture system concepts, can be assessed in terms of mission effectiveness. The NavalrnCollaborative Engineering Environment (NCEE) has been established to support this large-scalernengineering effort and the Authors are working towards a modelling framework which properlyrncaptures a Mission Capability Portfolio of systems. In addition, the modelling approach is basedrnon the DOD C4ISR Architecture FrameworkrnFramework1, and provides a basis for translating thernOperational, System, and Technical Views into System Engineering Models. Furthermore, arnsignificant challenge facing this modelling effort is the capture of the emerging concepts drivingrnNetwork-centric warfare. CORE, a commercial Systems Engineering tool, is being utilized tornsupport this modelling effort.rn,
