Abstract
The main directions of the evolution of the subject of automation in the framework of integrated automated control systems and related problems of ensuring the interoperability of functional subsystems are considered. It is noted that the automation of management functions in the management system at the level of automation of tasks for their implementation exhausts its resources as the functionality of the system expands, the complexity of its structure and algorithms of functioning increases. At the same time, the automation of management processes becomes a priority, i.e. the automation of management processes, bringing it to a new qualitative level of providing cross-functional (inter-task) interaction horizontally. The process basis for the development of control systems for various purposes becomes an important prerequisite for the creation of integrated control systems as network-centric systems. It is noted that as the complexity of control systems increases and the application of promising technologies for their creation, the horizon of threats and predicted dangers expands, and the problem of interoperability of functional systems as part of an integrated control system comes to the fore. The main factors that determine the new directions of the emergence of vulnerabilities in the life cycle of integrated systems are presented, the analysis of which is proposed to be carried out at the level of a complete group of processes in the life cycle of systems. With this in mind, the interpretation of the traditional problem of interoperability of integrated control systems is presented on the basis of the decomposition of target and counteracting processes. The algorithm of interaction of processes within the target process is described, the subject of synchronization of processes in the life cycle of integrated systems at the level of their attributes (process input and output, resources for process implementation and process management) is illustrated. In the development of the integrated application of the functional and process approach, it is proposed to integrate management systems in the future according to the cascade principle: as the scale and complexity of the management system increases, it is proposed to first integrate its functional systems on a process basis, then, if necessary, to combine several integrated management systems, to conduct it on a functional basis. In the future, when creating large-scale integrated management systems, it is proposed to use a process basis for combining them. In this regard, at each level of integration of the management system, it is necessary to ensure the formation of several interrelated areas of process synchronization, and the system of synchronization of processes at the level of their attributes should be created taking into account the principle of centralized management.
