Abstract :
The Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) is striving towards a unified support concept known as Autonomic Logistics. Autonomic Logistics implies that the various support systems (diagnostic, maintenance, mission planning, and logistics) function as “smart” systems that need not continually be fed data via human intervention. In order to achieve such autonomy the diagnostic, maintenance, mission planning, and logistics systems must be integrated. To achieve this integrated system of systems, a tool must be available to assist the system designers. This paper will describe the characteristics of such a system design tool and describe the work to date to develop such a tool
