Systems Engineering Modelling and Simulation to Support Defence Acquisition System

Absztrakt

Modelling and Simulations have been applied in various engineering disciplines since the 1990s, especially in the area of defence, being an essential tool in all phases of the cycle of acquisition and in all applications whose main objective are to reduce the time, resources, and risks associated with acquisition, to enable the integrated product and process development, and to improve the quality of the fielded product. One of the main purposes of this research is to demonstrate the importance of Systems Engineering (INCOSE) as part of the defence acquisition system and how this engineering discipline has incorporated the use of Modelling and Simulations into their acquisition-cycle phases and processes.
