Experiencing Real-world Multidisciplinary Software Systems Engineering through Aircraft Carrier Simulation

摘要

Modern technology is a complex combination of mechanical systems controlled by electrical systems ultimately controlled by software systems. Mechanical and electrical engineering students generally receive multidisciplinary hands-on exposure to such real-world applications, but those in computer science rarely see or appreciate this perspective. This work provides an engaging virtual environment for investigating an extensive breadth and depth of practical aspects related to the analysis, design, implementation, testing, verification, validation, refinement, and accreditation of software-based systems of systems.
