Altogether, these data-based operations require an infor -
mation-centric approach to both system-of-systems design
and also to operations that support the individual systems
This approach is a key factor for the emergence of higher
level capabilities from lower-level interactions. Consequently,

the needed higher-level information models and dynamic processes are also addressed as research objectives. IndustrIal challenge The ever increasing capabilities for system inter- research connection and sharing of information, pro-
cesses and resources, provides un paralleled opportunities to configure systems into more capable aggregate systems, called systems-of-systems, that open up more and more appli-cation areas. Future systems-of-systems will collaborate across former boundaries, be robust to configuration changes, and cope with un-expected changes in their en viron ment.
The Poseidon project is a collaborative research project by the Embedded Systems Institute that rises to this challenge. Working with the industrial partner Thales, it aims to discover new ways to build dynamic in formation-centric systems-of-systems, deriving its research statement from the maritime safety and security domain. exPected results The Poseidon project partners will address the key aspects

Protecting Your Bone Health About one out of every two women will suffer from osteoporosis compared to one in every eight men. Osteoporosis, which is preventable and has no visible symptoms, causes brittle bones and can result in hip, spine, or wrist fractures. These kinds of major breaks may seriously limit mobility and physical ability, and cause significant disability and even death. Un
