Modeling and Simulation of a System of Systems: Incorporating Electromagnetic and Radiation Effects into the Army's Future Combat Systems

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Army's Future Combat Systems (FCS) * FCS operates as a system-of-systems * Whole greater than sum of parts. * Net-centric * Enables soldiers to perceive, comprehend, shape, and dominate the future battlefield * Network provides the synergistic glue for FCS * Performance not dependent on single element, but on success of the system-of-systems (SoS).
