Systems-of-systems
Focus:
The systems-of-systems (SoS) research group studies complex socio-technical systems in which the constituent elements have a certain degree of independence. Some of the topics investigated are methods for modeling and analysis of SoS, architecture, risk management, and value creation.
The systems-of-systems (SoS) research group studies all aspects relevant to the understanding and development of complex systems where the constituent parts are themselves systems with some independence. The constituent systems collaborate to achieve shared interests, while also retaining their individual objectives.
The research interests of the group are broad, and include a number of topics related to SoS:
SoS development: Methods and tools for modeling, analysis, and simulation; SoS architecting; and processes and methods for collaborative engineering.
SoS value creation: Business models; software and data ecosystems; and issues of trust (including risk, safety, security).
SoS fundamentals: Theoretical concepts; socio-technical aspects; and intelligent collaborations.
Most of the research in the group is done in collaboration with industry or societal actors. Application domains include transportation, construction, process and manufacturing industries, crisis management, energy, aerospace, and defense.
