The Conference addresses the discipline of systems engineering, especially complex systems of systems, including theory, technology, methodology, and applications of complex systems, system-of-systems, and integrated systems of national and global significance.

This symposium seeks to create an interactive forum for the advancement of the practice of systems engineering across the multiple disciplines and specialty areas associated with the engineering of complex systems. The symposium will provide a venue for systems engineering practitioners, managers, researchers, and educators to exchange innovative concepts, ideas, applications, and lessons learned addressing: Applications-oriented topics on large-scale systems and systems-of-systems in topics Systems engineering, education, standards, processes, and methodologies for the system-of systems environment Research opportunities and results relating to

The IEEE Systems Council facilitates interactions among communities of interest on system-level problems and applications. System-level thinking is essential in the world today, not only for technical systems, but also for society at large. The Council addresses the discipline of systems engineering, including theory, technology, methodology, and applications of complex systems, system-of-systems, and integrated systems of national and global significance.
