This paper extends an earlier published methodology for measuring the technical performance risk of a system to that of a system-of-systems (SoS). The earlier work established an approach for combining an individual system's Technical Performance Measures (TPMs) into an overall measure of performance risk, defined as the Technical Risk Index (TRI). This paper extends this approach so a similar index can be developed for a system composed of many interdependent or connected systems that come together as a whole to provide an SoS capability.
