Lessons Learned from Dealing with Complex Systems from

Other Communities: Potential Topics for CASE 2012

Motivation

• CASE symposium established to facilitate aerospace community interaction on problems and issues associated with systems engineering/systems development across the life cycle of complex aviation systems

• Other communities are also faced with challenges related to complexity, volatility and uncertainty in their capability development environments− AIAA/CASE may benefit from sharing experiences and

emerging insights from others’ efforts to come to grips with these challenges

− Would like to consider potential topics/mechanisms for interaction at CASE 2012

Selected Complex Systems Efforts

• DoD Cyberspace Operations Capability Development/Acquisition− NDAA 2011 called on DoD to develop a strategy for responsive and

accountable acquisition of cyber warfare capability, addressing requirements, acquisition, and test/evaluation aspects of capability generation

− Identified principles, tenets, and cross-cutting enablers• TTCP Action Group 14: Complex Adaptive Systems for Defence

− International effort to explore implications of emerging insights from complex adaptive systems research for national security

− Topics addressed included complex causality, approaches to enhancing adaptiveness/agility, and the considerations for SE of complex systems

• Network Centric Operations, Network-Enabled Capability Command and Control Maturity Model− Principles, concepts for decision making under conditions of complexity,

volatility and uncertainty− A value chain and metrics for how information and collaboration− Enhancing agility of individual and collective decision making processes

What it takes to be more agile, to be more capable of dealing with complexity, volatility and uncertainty

Options for CASE

• Talk/presentation describe the three frameworks/perspectives offered by these initiatives− But would likely need more than the 30 minutes typically

allotted to cover all 3

• Separate talks going into more detail on each initiative

• Panel discussion including participants in Cyber Acquisition Strategy effort and TTCP AG14, as well as other identified experts in cyber SE, agile SE, and the SE of complex systems

• Some combination of the above depending on interest
