The overarching objectives of the SDA discipline are to improve our
understanding of issues associated with the integration of functional
capabilities across disciplines (SO-5) and to improve our predictive
capability to application domains that are not amenable to real-world
validation experiments (SO-6).
RDT&E activities develop flight deck system design tools, information
management system modeling capabilities, and NAS-wide system analysis
and data mining techniques that identify phenomena of interest and
hazard precursors and allow for the prognosis of effects when
considering new technology insertions.
Referring to our research framework, SDA research activities span
horizontally across the scope of IIFD and, unlike the other discipline
areas of IIFD, do not directly produce new functional capabilities for
the flight deck system. In contrast, SDA research results in methods and
tools that designers, or even researchers, can utilize to clearly define
requirements, understand subsystem relationships and dependencies, and
diagnose or prognosticate flight deck system vulnerabilities.
