Cover of Dominique Luzeaux & Jean-René Ruault: Large-scale Complex System and Systems of Systems (PDF)
With the growing maturity of information and communication
technologies, systems have been interconnected within growing
networks, yielding new services through a combination of the system
functionalities. This leads to an increasing complexity that has to
be managed in order to take advantage of these system integrations.
This book provides key answers as to how such systems of systems
can be engineered and how their complexity can be mastered.

After reviewing some definitions on systems of systems engineering,
the book focuses on concrete applications and offers a survey of
the activities and techniques that allow engineering of complex
systems and systems of systems. Case studies, ranging from
emergency situations such as Hurricane Katrina and its crisis
management or a generic scenario of a major traffic accident and
its emergency response, to the establishment of a scientific basis
in the Antarctic region illustrate key factors of success and traps
to avoid in order to cope with such situations.
