Agile Assessment Techniques for Evaluating Mission Capability Portfolio Ensembles in Complex Adaptive Architectures (Briefing Charts)
Abstract
Given the prototypical architectural template's demise, the purpose of this research is to begin a formulation of the Agile Assessment Methodology needed to evaluate the mission capability impact of using composeable web services in complex adaptive architectures. Network Centric Warfare (NCW) Assessment Processes must validate that a "rush towards a transformation" by date "X" does not sacrifice warfighter capability by introducing de-stabilizing architecture components. What assessment methodology and criteria will be used to evaluate or even define the NCW architectural boundaries for platform system reductions? What assessment methodology will be used to evaluate mission execution success probabilities given the migration away from traditional platform centric mission capabilities? The results of this research indicate that platforms should be wary of removing systems in favor of GIG services which may jeopardize crew or platform survivability; it also recommends that composeable assessment and simulation capabilities required to manage the assessment of mixed architecture capability ensembles be developed.
