Abstract :
This paper analyses the technology implications on the MOD Defence and Security Systems of Systems (SoS). Horizon scanning provided input to evaluation and assessment of implications, through the synthesis of Technology Clusters. Implications included contextual SoS issues that may constrain or impact up-take of technologies. The MOD enterprise SoS was also analysed to identify processes, structures and culture for responding to science and technology change.
