THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM AS A SMART SYSTEM

Topics on Mathematics for Smart Systems, 2007
Our work aims at modelling and simulating the growth processes that allow the cardiovascular system to adapt to the overall body development and to changing physiological (and pathological) conditions. Within the cardiovascular system, we pay particular attention to the heart and the aorta. A healthy aortic wall succeeds in keeping a homeostatic stress

Securability for system of systems

International Journal of System of Systems Engineering, 2012
As the Department of Defense (DoD) pursues methods within the systems engineering process to combat potential information assurance (IA) vulnerabilities, a new paradigm is required. This paper introduces the concept of securability as a new ility to be considered within the systems life cycle. Alongside the traditional system ilities (i.e., reliability,

Evaluation of IT systems considering characteristics as system of systems

2011 6th International Conference on System of Systems Engineering, 2011
It is important for IT system integration (SI) to evaluate non-functional requirements (NFR) in design phase. However, since IT systems show system of systems (SoS) characteristics, the evaluation is a difficult work. An IT system consisting of independently developed systems has to be evaluated comprehensively as a whole system.

On the Systems Engineering Process of some Systems (of Systems)

2018 13th Annual Conference on System of Systems Engineering (SoSE), 2018
We concentrate in this paper on a requirement to the successful engineered systems (of systems—SoS), which is the goal of the system engineering process. The requirement is the need for a common communication system. We begin with an overview of Systems Engineering whereof we finally point out that not all systems to engineer give rise to the same ...

Implications of systems of systems on system design and engineering

2011 6th International Conference on System of Systems Engineering, 2011
Over the past ten years there has been a steady growth in attention to issues related to systems of systems (SoS) and systems engineering, particularly in Defense in the United States. This attention has focused on how to apply SE principles and practices to SoS, considering the differences between systems and SoS.

System of Systems Challenges

2010
The available technology (e.g., the Internet) makes it possible to interconnect independently developed embedded systems (legacy systems) to form new system-of-systems (SoS) that promise more efficient economic processes and improved services. Examples of SoSs are smart power distribution, car-to-car communication, or air-traffic control. The different

System Definition, System Worldviews, and Systemness Characteristics

IEEE Systems Journal, 2020
The definition and characteristics of system have eluded humans for a very long time, as different people refer to the concept of system in various ways. A set of surveys conducted by us revealed seven distinct worldviews on system. We describe the surveys, analyze their results, and comment on differences between the responses.

Framing a system of systems in a navy system of systems engineering analysis

International Journal of System of Systems Engineering, 2011
The application of a formal systems-based methodology for the analysis of a system of systems engineering problem has provided a rigorous framework that invests heavily in the understanding and framing of the problem under study. This paper discusses how a unique perspective was designed and applied during the analysis of complex US Navy system of ...

System of Systems Approach for Maintaining Wastewater System

Journal of Computing in Civil Engineering, 2019
AbstractThis study demonstrates that modeling a wastewater system as a system of systems (SoS) rather than a monolithic system constitutes a useful methodological approach to dealing with the compl...
