Abstract
AbstractArchitecting of coherent system‐of‐systems (SoS) capabilities is complex due factors such as the diverse range of stakeholders and evolving requirements. Left to themselves, these individual stakeholders at the system requirements definition and implementation stages may demand for optimization of individual systems of their interests. This would collectively result in local optimization at the system‐level at the expense of SoS‐level or even enterpriselevel effectiveness. This paper proposes an approach to coherently architect SoS capabilities. This approach is premised on the assumption that a “top‐down” leadership approach is applicable to establish the required reporting structures and relationships in the technical community. The approach attempts to weave in the considerations of limited shared resources and common technological solutions across the national defense enterprise into the process of architecting an SoS that would fulfil a large‐scale mission capability.
