The World as Systems of Systems
Systems of Systems Engineering (SoSE) deals with situations where multiple independent systems interact. It has far-reaching impacts in engineering fields such as control, computing, communication, information technology, artificial intelligence, and data science. Its applications span critical domains including manufacturing, defense, national security, aerospace, aeronautics, energy, environment, healthcare, sustainability, and transportation.
System of Systems Engineering
The SoSE2026 theme, The World as Systems of Systems, highlights the growing interconnectedness of today’s systems, where individual systems operate as part of larger, dynamic ecosystems. This perspective is essential for addressing complex global challenges, from energy and healthcare to defense and sustainability. By recognizing these interconnections, we can drive innovation, resilience, and impactful solutions across disciplines.
