The Integrated Blast Effects Sensor Suite: A rapidly developed, complex, system of systems

摘要

The need for rapid development of tactical system of systems solutions for military applications requires the use of system modeling techniques and simulation and validation methods to be applied throughout the lifecycle of the system. This combined approach of development and verification is preferred to traditional approaches for risk mitigation and cost effectiveness. This paper examines the Integrated Blast Effects Sensor Suite developed at the Georgia Tech Research Institute and its architecture as a complex system of systems.
