1. Systems Engineering Differs from SoSE Stuart H. Rubin SSC-SD James Joshi University of Pittsburgh 16 April, 2007

2. Key Characteristics of System of Systems SoSE vs. Systems Engineering SoSE differs from Traditional Systems Engineering SoSE depends on the science of Information Reuse and Integration – IRI Reuse supports scalability, higher quality for less cost, and iterative transformation for dynamic systems

3. IRI makes Intelligent & Adaptive Systems possible for Less Cost Ammm!@.. Hope my sub-systems will stay put when I fly !!

4. IRI makes building Large Scale, Complex Software Systems Easy and Cost-Effective Cortical Software Re-Use Theory reference

5. IRI allows building High Quality, Efficient, and Adaptive Integrated Enterprise Information Systems

6. IRI makes it possible to build & continually transform E-Government Systems & Global Information Sharing Environments

7. IRI makes it possible to efficiently engineer Complex Hardware & Industrial Systems through Knowledge-Based Reuse

8. IRI allows engineering cost effective and adaptive large-scale systems needed for Homeland Defense & Critical Infrastructure Protection through Knowledge-Based Reuse &Information Integration Integrated Vulnerability Databases HOMELAND SECURITY

9. International Conference on Information Reuse and Integration First IRI Conference held in 1999 Currently sponsored by IEEE Systems, Man, & Cybernetics Society Other sponsors include: US Air Force Office of Scientific Research (2006) Waikoloa, Hawaii, 2006 2003 2004 2005 2007

10. IEEE IRI Focus IRI plays a pivotal role for the capture, maintenance, integration, validation, extrapolation, discovery, and application of information and knowledge IRI plays a pivotal role for the capture, maintenance, integration, validation, extrapolation, discovery, and application of information and knowledge Building scalable, pragmatic, complex, System of Systems (SoS) Increase decision-making capability for application domains Efficiency/effectiveness quality, cost-effectiveness Building scalable, pragmatic, complex, System of Systems (SoS) Increase decision-making capability for application domains Efficiency/effectiveness quality, cost-effectiveness IRI seeks to maximize availability of information, creation of knowledge, reuse of information & knowledge IRI seeks to maximize availability of information, creation of knowledge, reuse of information & knowledge International platform for researchers and practitioners Workshops, Special Sessions, Panels Fun and Festivities

11. IEEE IRI emphasizes: food and festivities IRI’s “Food and Festivities” Event (2004, Las Vegas)

12. IEEE IRI emphasizes: reuse at conference level IRI’s “Food and Festivities” Event Reused (2005, Las Vegas)

13. IEEE IRI emphasizes: reuse at conference level IRI’s “Food and Festivities” Event Reused (2006, Hawaii)

14. IEEE IRI emphasizes: reuse at conference level IRI’s “Food and Festivities” Event Reused & More Personalized (2006, Hawaii)

15. IRI 2029: Planning Committee Meeting & Conference Venue The search has begun … Get Involved now … Destination Mars
