Netcentric System of Systems Engineering with DEVS Unified Process

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"The book is the first to expose the DEVS Unified Process (DUNIP), a methodology that employs the DEVS formalism to provide a sound modeling and simulation framework for model-driven systems engineering. Software and systems engineers at the cutting edge of intelligent system technologies will be particularly interested in the fact that the book extends DUNIP to apply to systems capable of complex adaptive and emergent behaviors."
-Bernard P. Zeigler, the father of DEVS formalism, University of Arizona, USA

"This book is among the first to coherently and concisely address the challenge to integrate modeling and simulation (M&S) as one of the emerging decision support tools of the 21st century into this netcentric environment. ... The task for integrating solutions that are implemented on heterogeneous IT systems and that were developed independently from each other, but that nonetheless shall support homogeneous presentation of required functionality to the user, is supported by netcentric system of systems. The book brings both aspects together successfully and proposes a general solution that merges successful formal approaches with state-of-the-art engineering solutions. Although the case studies are taken from the defense domain, the applicability of the recommended approach to all domains of M&S-such as business, transportation, and medical-is given implicitly, as formalism as well as engineering solutions are accepted in these domains."
-Andreas Tolk, Ph.D., Old Dominion University, USA

"... there is interesting content in this book for systems engineers who are interested in model-based systems engineering and in different kinds of simulation, as well as those interested in how the software for distributed systems of computer systems can be modeled.
