Abstract
- The unremitting use of legacy systems continues to compound risks to the information management environment. As legacy systems become increasingly obsolete, they inefficiently con- sume valuable resources such as data, power, space, and manpower. Additionally, from a cyberse- curity and reliability perspective; systems which have reached the end of their intended life cycles are more susceptible to corruption or interruption of services. To mitigate these issues, a way forward is to transition away from legacy systems to Future Knowledgebase Systems of Systems (FKSS). The following paper will take a Systems Engineering (SE) approach to the aforementioned issues.
