INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY FOR DATA-CENTRIC, CAPABILITY FOCUSED APPROACH TO FACILITATE THE ARCHITECTURE, MODELING, AND INTEROPERABILITY OF CHALLENGING SYSTEM-OF-SYSTEMS, (SoS)

Abstract

A data-centric capability focused on meeting the strategic need for the rapid configuration of interoperability among and between different end-points such as applications, military vehicle onboard systems, modules and sensors represents a glaring capability gap facing the Army. This agile network layer is required for the standardization and interpretation of data into actionable intelligence. A capability that is essential for the Army to successfully facilitate complex “systems-of-systems” (SoS) engineering requirements for process improvement, superior products, and reduced cost.
