“Complex Systems and System-of-Systems Engineering for Large-Scale Integrated Infrastructures: Architecture, Coordination, and Resilience”
This Special Issue focuses on systems-level research for large-scale integrated infrastructures, including energy systems, transportation networks, communication systems, industrial platforms, environmental systems, healthcare systems, and emergency response systems. As these infrastructures become increasingly interconnected, interdependent, and dynamically coupled, new systems engineering methods are needed to support architecture design, integration, coordination, operation, lifecycle management, and resilience.
Topics of interest include complex systems and system-of-systems engineering, systems architecture, interoperability, modeling and simulation, digital engineering, cross-domain coordination, resilience, robustness, safety, security, risk management, human factors, standards, and real-world case studies of deployed infrastructure systems. The Special Issue is closely aligned with the RASSE 2026 themes of systems science and engineering, system-of-systems, cyber-physical systems, digital twins, distributed systems, and large-scale systems integration.

Special Issue on
“Reliability and Resilience of Complex Cyber-Physical Systems: Modeling, Assurance, and System-of-Systems Perspectives”
This Special Issue aims to advance research on the reliability and resilience of complex cyber-physical systems across energy, transportation, industrial automation, communication networks, autonomous systems, smart infrastructure, healthcare, and environmental monitoring. The focus is on system-level modeling, analysis, assurance, lifecycle management, and adaptive recovery for CPS operating under uncertainty, faults, cyber-physical threats, degraded conditions, or adversarial environments.
Topics of interest include reliability modeling, resilience assessment, prognostics and health management, degradation modeling, mission assurance, digital twins, fault-tolerant and self-healing architectures, verification and validation, cybersecurity-aware reliability, risk assessment, uncertainty quantification, AI-enabled trustworthy reliability techniques, and multi-domain CPS applications. The Special Issue bridges traditional reliability engineering with modern resilience-oriented CPS design and is well aligned with RASSE 2026 topics such as cyber-physical systems, modeling and simulation, autonomous systems, embedded systems, digital twins, and large-scale systems integration.
