Exploration of a Capability-Focused Aerospace System of Systems Architecture Alternative with Bilayer Design Space, Based on RST-SOM Algorithmic Methods

الملخص EN

In defense related programs, the use of capability-based analysis, design, and acquisition has been significant.

In order to confront one of the most challenging features of a huge design space in capability based analysis (CBA), a literature review of design space exploration was first examined.

Then, in the process of an aerospace system of systems design space exploration, a bilayer mapping method was put forward, based on the existing experimental and operating data.

Finally, the feasibility of the foregoing approach was demonstrated with an illustrative example.

With the data mining RST (rough sets theory) and SOM (self-organized mapping) techniques, the alternative to the aerospace system of systems architecture was mapping from P-space (performance space) to C-space (configuration space), and then from C-space to D-space (design space), respectively.

Ultimately, the performance space was mapped to the design space, which completed the exploration and preliminary reduction of the entire design space.

This method provides a computational analysis and implementation scheme for large-scale simulation.
