Combined systems
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Combined Systems project is a Dutch collaborative research and development project involving the key partners of the Delft Collaboration on Intelligent Systems (www.decis.nl), Delft University of Technology (TUD), Thales Group Research & Technology, TNO and the University of Amsterdam (UvA). The project is supported by the involvement and expertise of the following SME subcontractors: Acklin, Inology, Yall and Lithp Systems.
Combined is an acronym for Chaotic Open world Multi-agent Based Intelligently NEtworked Decision support Systems. The Combined Systems research project is concerned with the improvement of the performance of large scale complex systems of systems in chaotic circumstances. The project focuses on a crisis management scenario in the Rotterdam Harbor. The envisioned Combined Systems features are early and improved situation awareness, decision making and action. This is achieved by making use of self-managing mechanisms, semantic network architectures and intelligent agent technology (see also: Multi-agent systems).
