Abstract:In order to obtain the structure properties of system of systems, an structure analysis framework of system of systems executable architecture based on view models of DoDAF is presented. Firstly, advantages and disadvantages of Petri nets, automata and event structure graphs are compared by analyzing tools of state-oriented approaches and incident-oriented approaches. Then respective extensions of the referred three approaches are proposed owing to the occurred probabilities and delays of the activities of system of systems executable architecture. In the end, a new framework for system of systems executable architecture structure analysis is
brought forward combining the advantage of obtaining the structure properties from executable architecture models for Petri nets and easily modeling behaviors for automata and event structure graphs. Theory basis is provided for capability evaluation by the proposed approach.
