Abstract

This paper discusses an architecture based engineering solution of achieving Command, Control, Communication, Computer, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) interoperability and several challenges. This paper addresses the problem space from a System Engineering & analyst viewpoint and uses the object-oriented (00) Unified Modeling Language (UML) as the model representation of the architectural artifacts described in the DAF. The utilization of the three new diagrams (i.e. Composite, Interaction & timing) which have been introduced in UML version 2 are discussed and integrated into the SoS Analysis approach discussed. Finally, the paper concludes with several areas of potential research for the future.
