系统联盟社会技术风险分析的责任模型

Responsibility Modeling for the Sociotechnical Risk Analysis of Coalitions of Systems

David Greenwood, Ian Sommerville

摘要:

社会对系统工程师的挑战是要求更复杂和集成的系统。随着云计算和系统的系统(包括网络物理系统)的兴起,我们正在进入一个关键任务服务和应用程序将依赖于“系统联盟”的时代。系统联盟(Coalitions-of-Systems,CoS)是一种类似于系统的系统,但它们的不同之处在于它们相互作用以进一步重叠自身利益,而不是总体任务。评估与CoS相关的社会技术风险是一个具有社会重要性的开放性研究问题,因为现有的风险分析技术通常侧重于系统的技术方面,而忽略了与联盟伙伴背弃责任或离开联盟相关的风险。我们证明了一个基于责任模型的风险分析方法,使识别与CoS相关的社会技术风险。该方法确定了在依赖人类/组织/技术代理人联盟提供服务或应用程序时可能出现的危害和相关风险。通过一个拟议的云IT基础设施迁移的案例研究,我们展示了该技术如何识别可能出现的漏洞,因为人,组织或技术代理未能履行职责。

英文摘要:

Society is challenging systems engineers by demanding ever more complex and integrated systems. With the rise of cloud computing and systems-of-systems (including cyber-physical systems) we are entering an era where mission critical services and applications will be dependent upon 'coalitions-of-systems'. Coalitions-of-systems (CoS) are a class of system similar to systems-of-systems but they differ in that they interact to further overlapping self-interests rather than an overarching mission. Assessing the sociotechnical risks associated with CoS is an open research question of societal importance as existing risk analysis techniques typically focus on the technical aspects of systems and ignore risks associated with coalition partners reneging on responsibilities or leaving the coalition. We demonstrate that a responsibility modeling based risk analysis approach enables the identification of sociotechnical risks associated with CoS. The approach identifies hazards and associated risks that may arise when relying upon a coalition of human/organizational/technical agents to provision a service or application. Through a case study of a proposed cloud IT infrastructure migration we show how the technique identifies vulnerabilities that may arise because of human, organizational or technical agents failing to discharge responsibilities.
