The full behavior of complex software systems often only emerges during operation. They
thus need to be monitored at run time to check that they adhere to their requirements …

Engineering a system with the explicit goal of steering its emergent behavior is a relatively
new human endeavor, and demands new ways of thinking about how we model system of …

The research described herein provides a method for exposing invalid behaviors in systems
of systems (SoS) early in design, at the architecture level. The Monterey Phoenix (MP) …

This chapter teaches how to detect, classify, predict, and control emergent behaviors in
System of Systems (SoS) aided by modeling and simulation (M&S) with Monterey Phoenix …

Human designed systems are growing in complexity, with increasing numbers of
components and behavior combinations, resulting in more emergent and unintended …

This chapter provides practitioners with an approach to verify and validate existing system
behavior specifications using the Monterey Phoenix (MP) language, approach, and tool …

This article describes preliminary research (a proof of concept test) on the potential value of
formalizing Isomorphic Systems Processes (ISPs) based on systems science research using …

This paper describes a reusable approach using automatic use case scenario generation to
specify system of systems (SoS) behaviors. The approach leverages the Monterey Phoenix …

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) revealed weaknesses in supply chains of companies that
produce personal protective equipment (PPE), resulting in nationwide shortages. A …

This research aims to improve the development and analysis of architecture models using
