Reconfigurable Systems*

Abstract

*Formerly Reconfigurable Structures In the Reconfigurable Systems thrust, new approaches are being developed to enable more rapid and robust adaptation of military systems and systems-of-systems to changing mission requirements and unpredictable environments. This includes development of capabilities across sensing, perception, planning and control for autonomous, high-speed operation in cluttered environments without Global Positioning System (GPS) information. Additional work in this thrust focuses on how systems and systems-of-systems are designed for real-time resilient response to dynamic, unexpected contingencies. Research is ongoing to develop a more unified view of system behavior that allows better understanding and exploitation of complex interactions among system components, including development of a formal mathematical approach to complex adaptive system composition and design. These capabilities will impact autonomous systems and systems-of- systems, including those that involve humans, in a variety of DoD-relevant contexts.
