Enterprises & SoS

Our research is at the forefront of system complexity and scale. Today, systems are being designed for change, combine durable and attritable systems, and are not constrained in or on a physical or virtual platform. Capability analysis is increasingly at the mission, system-of-systems (SoS), and enterprise levels. Future systems will be more complex, nonlinear, and non-stationary in their behavior, and we can no longer analyze or design them effectively via traditional SE decomposition. SERC is using AI and data visualization to advance enterprise portfolio analysis, mission engineering, testbeds for future wireless systems, and management of megaprojects.
