Description:: Virtual environments involving Federations-of-Models (FoM) and Operators-in-the-Loop (OITL) offer a unique venue for investigating the engineering trade-space available for System-of-Systems (SoS) designs. Use of an OITL FoM environment early in the design process (i.e., during concept...

Description:: This dissertation introduces a theory of information quality to explain macroscopic behavior observed in the systems engineering process. The theory extends principles of Shannon's mathematical theory of communication [1948] and statistical mechanics to information development processes concerned...
