Standards View
In the DoDAF [B5], the standards view describes the standards and rules that govern the organization, interaction, and dependencies between existing and future states of the systems in the SoS. The INTERSECT standards view similarly describes the standards supported by the INTERSECT SoS architecture in two different aspects: (1) Internal Standards within the INTERSECT ecosystem that maintain compliance, and (2) External Standards that the INTERSECT ecosystem needs to support.
The INTERSECT architecture and its corresponding prototype implementation currently follow an agile software design and development approach, as many aspects are still open research questions. As standards are manifestations of stable decisions, the current approach for Internal Standards focuses on individual per-view requirements in the SoS architecture and on requirements in the Microservices Architecture. The current approach for External Standards focuses on individual per-project requirements in the Practical Architecture Examples.
