Analysis of Interoperability to Support Mission-Oriented
Ronald E. Giachetti, Ph.D.Professor and Chair
Systems EngineeringNaval Postgraduate School
Monterey, CA [email protected]
Apply systems engineering processes and knowledge to the design of missions
Mission engineering almost always results in an acknowledged SoS
SoS has requirements, management, and resourcesConstituent systems are NOT subordinate to the SoS
Mission engineering activities include:Interoperability analysisOperational activity modeling and analysisTradeoff decisions across systemsModifications to systems to ensure interoperability
Mission Engineering

Slide 2
Objective: Develop and test an engineering method that can use architecture models to identify interoperability gaps and specify interoperability requirements during mission engineering
In a MBSE or digital engineering environment, teams could access the system architecture data to conduct the interoperability analysis

A measure of the degree to which various systems are able to operate together to achieve a common goal.
Operational Interoperability Coordination of the activities and performers conducting the mission
Technical InteroperabilityThe ability of systems to exchange data and resources
Interoperability
Ronald E. Giachetti November 14, 2019
Slide 6
Many interoperability measures such as the Levels of Information Systems (LISI) model, which assign numbers to interoperability in an ordinal or interval scale
Such global measures of system interoperability do not provide any guidance on what to do to improve interoperability, nor do they inform decision makers whether systems will interoperate adequately for any particular mission
Previous Work on Interoperability

1. Mission Interoperability Analysis1. Define CONOPs2. Define mission threads3. Define measures of effectiveness4. Define operational nodes, conditions, and standards
2. Technical Interoperability Analysis1. Define information exchange requirements2. Define information elements3. Define network and transport links4. Define measures of performance
3. Specify and Allocate Interoperability Requirements

Slide 13
This paper contributed the Interoperability Analysis Method to support both operational and technical interoperability for mission-oriented system-of-systems
The IAM works with the architecture deliverables programs already generate and identifies specific and actionable interoperability requirements
We conducted some verification and validation of the method by comparing modeling recommendations to field study experience
