System of Systems Modeling and Analysis 

System of Systems Modeling and Analysis provides the reader with motivation, theory, methodology, and examples of modeling and analysis for system of system (So S) problems. In addition to theory, this book contains history and conceptual definitions, as well as the theoretical fundamentals of So S modeling and analysis. It then describes methods for So S modeling and analysis, including use of existing methodology and original work, specifically oriented to So S. Providing a bridge between theory and practice for modeling and analysis of So S, this book includes generalized concepts and Methods, Tools, and Processes (MTP) applicable to So S across any application domain. Examples of application from various fields will be used to provide a practical demonstration of the use of the methodologies. Features Offers a modern presentation of So S principles and guided description of applying a modeling and analysis process to So S engineering Provides additional modeling approaches useful for So S engineering, including agent-based modeling Covers the current gap in literature between theory and modeling/application Features examples of applications from various fields, such as energy grids and regional transportation Includes questions, examples, and exercises at the end of each chapter This book is intended for senior undergraduate students in engineering programs studying So S modeling, So S analysis, and So S engineering courses. Professional engineers will also benefit from MTP and examples as a baseline for specific user applications.
