论文摘要
系统系统(SOS)的架构,即从多个独立组成系统的合作中出现的系统,是对行业和学术界都提高兴趣的话题。但是,最近的实证研究揭示了SOS架构的一个被忽视的方面,该方面与主要集成和运营问题有关:这种架构过程中涉及的各个学科之间的相互作用。这方面与SOS成分之间的界面的管理特别相关,SOS成分不可避免地会遇到这些学科。在本文中,我们介绍了作者与参与大型无线电天文学SOS项目长期架构过程的一组从业者进行的技术行动研究(TAR)研究的第一个周期(TAR)研究的结果。该焦油旨在通过采用\ textit {documentation-as-as-code}哲学的元素来探索目前遵循的以文档为中心的接口管理方法的潜在改进,该元素在软件系统的域中广泛采用。结果,研究人员开发了ICD(接口控制文档)管理方法的概念证明,并由从业人员进行评估。这项工作报告了研究结果和相应的教训。
The architecting of Systems of Systems (SoS), that is, of systems that emerge from the cooperation of multiple independent constituent systems, is a topic of increasing interest in both industry and academia. However, recent empirical studies revealed what seems to be an overlooked aspect of the architecting of SoS that is linked to major integration and operational issues: the interplay between the various disciplines involved in such an architecting process. This aspect becomes particularly relevant for the management of the interfaces between the SoS constituents, where such disciplines inevitably meet. In this paper, we present the results of the first cycle of a Technical Action Research (TAR) study conducted in cooperation between the authors and a group of practitioners involved in the long-running architecting process of a large-scale radio astronomy SoS project. This TAR is aimed at exploring potential improvements of the document-centered interface management approach currently followed in this project by adopting elements of the \textit{documentation-as-code} philosophy, which is widely adopted in the domain of software systems. As a result, a working proof-of-concept of an ICD (Interface Control Document) management approach was developed by the researchers and evaluated by the practitioners. The results of the study and the corresponding lessons learned are reported in this work.
