The System of Systems Engineering Collaborators Information Exchange (SoSECIE) is a web-based seminar series organized by the Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (SE) in association with the National Defense Industrial Associations’s SoS Engineering committee. The goal of this series is to provide guidance, education and training for SoS and dissemination of engineering best practices within the government, military, contractors, academia and International partners.

Speaker: Dr. Mike Yokell, Lockheed Martin Fellow and Deputy Director, Systems Engineering

Title: Development of New Standards for Systems of Systems Engineering

Abstract: Nearly all systems interact as part of a system of systems. Systems of systems engineering (SoSE) practice is maturing to the point that the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has initiated the development of a set of SoSE Standards. This presentation outlines the background on the new SoS standards and describes the new standards in development. The structure and content of the standards are described along with the plans for continued development.

Bio: Dr. Mike Yokell is a Lockheed Martin Fellow and Deputy Director, Systems Engineering. He is the US representative to International Standards setting bodies for Systems and Software Engineering and is the project editor for two new international standards on Systems of Systems Engineering. Mike is certified as an expert systems engineering professional (ESEP) by the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE). He holds multiple US and European Patents for Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and large scale immersive virtual reality.
