INCOSE Foundation
The INCOSE Foundation is dedicated to making a difference in people’s lives by advancing the development
of systems engineering practice throughout the world. The Directors of the INCOSE Foundation are
committed to the substantive role we play in developing and rewarding skills through the scholarships
we bestow.
Five scholarships are now awarded through the INCOSE Foundation
• ISEF, the International Science and Engineering Fair INCOSE Award to a pre-college student
• The Chesapeake Chapter Award for undergraduates (Three $500 awards)
• The JHU Alexander Kossiakoff Award to a student in a Masters or Doctoral program
• The Stevens Doctoral Award for Promising Research in Systems Engineering to a Ph.D Candidate
• The James E. Long Award for Post Doctoral work.
We are grateful to our donors who have allowed the INCOSE Foundation to maintain its commitment
to providing scholarship assistance.

INCOSE Foundation
LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN
Dear Colleagues,
The INCOSE Foundation is proud to present our annual report, which
summarizes the activities and accomplishments for 2014.
We begin this report with news about our dear friend, William Ewald, who leads
the INCOSE Foundation as its Chief Executive Officer. In early February 2015,
Bill suffered a stroke and is working hard at recovery. He brings the spirit of
doing the best job possible to everything he touches and we know he is doing the
same right now. We wish him well and look forward to welcoming him back to
leadership.
We are pleased to report that, through the generosity of our Systems Engineering friends and supporting
organizations, our financial position is solid.
Stevens Institute gave the INCOSE Foundation a 70,000 USD gift which, when added to the existing amount,
brought the scholarship fund up to 100,000 USD. An annual 5000 USD scholarship is awarded from this
fund. This ensures several years in which the Foundation will continue to support scholars.
Johns Hopkins University also made a significant 25,000 USD gift to support the Alexander Kossiakoff
Award. Again, thanks to their generosity, the Foundation will be supporting scholars for many years.
The financial situation showed additional growth of our assets to 302,611.04 USD at the close of 2014
after awarding almost 25,000 USD in scholarships. Generous contributions of almost 47,000 USD were
made to the general fund, 70,000 USD to the Stevens Doctoral Fund, over 25,000 USD to the Kossiakoff
SE Scholarship Fund, 6,000 USD to the Chesapeake Fund, over 7,000 USD to the James Long Fund, and
over 2,500 USD to the David Wright Memorial Fund. During 2014, we had over 157,000 USD in total
contributions.
The Foundation stock portfolio gained over 11,000 USD in value; our fixed-income accounts and dividends
earned us approximately 3,000 USD. These earnings reduce what is used from donations to the general fund
for operating expenses, allowing us to provide more scholarships and grants.
You will find a more detailed analysis later in this Annual Report, prepared by INCOSE Foundation treasurer
Jim Armstrong.
We continue to be grateful to you, our supporters, whose generosity makes everything possible. It is our goal
to support programs that help the INCOSE Foundation fulfill its place in making this a better world to live
in and that we will continue to earn the confidence that our flagship donors have placed in us to promote the
best practices of systems engineering.
The future is extraordinary and challenging – and, with your help, we will continue to meet the challenge.
– John Snoderly PhD
Chairman, INCOSE Foundation

Stevens Doctoral Award
for Promising Research in Systems Engineering
“Stevens is proud to be the sponsor of a doctoral award for promising research in systems
engineering. Our planet’s future depends on the work being done today by many young
researchers, including the people recognized by this award over the years. Giving them a
chance to showcase their research towards becoming a leader in systems engineering is so very
important.”
– Dr. Dinesh Verma, Dean of the School of Systems and Enterprises at Stevens
The INCOSE Foundation gratefully acknowledges a milestone: A gift of 70,000 USD made in 2014
from Stevens Institute to support the Stevens Doctoral Award for Promising Research in Systems
Engineering and Integration brings the award fund to 100,000 USD enabling INCOSE to grant 5000
USD scholarships for many years. We look forward to working with Stevens in supporting deserving
graduate students who are making significant advances in Systems Engineering and Integration.
The INCOSE Foundation awarded this year’s INCOSE Foundation/Stevens Institute Doctoral Award for
Promising Research in Systems Engineering and Integration to Siddhartha Agarwal at the 2014 International
Symposium. Mr. Agarwal is the fourteenth recipient of this 5,000 USD award. A panel of INCOSE Fellows
reviewed the applications from a pool of highly qualified applicants from universities around the world and
evaluated the applications against three criteria:
1. The doctoral research advances the state of
knowledge in systems engineering and integration.
2. The doctoral research provides potential for the
advancement of the state of the practice of systems
engineering and integration within the next five to
ten years.
3. The doctoral research is highly rigorous.
The doctoral research is highly rigorous. Siddhartha
Agarwal, pictured here between Academic Council
Director Dr. Art Pyster and Dr. John Snoderly,
Foundation Chair, is a PhD candidate in Systems
Engineering at the Missouri University of Science and Technology, where he is conducting research in the
formulation of a domain independent framework for generating meta-architectures for System of Systems.
In addition, he is devising a methodology for implementation of a related meta-architecture through a
behavior dependent adaptive strategy for negotiating effectively with participating systems. The model
involves computational intelligence and deep learning techniques. He received his MS degree in Mining
Engineering from the University of Alaska, Fairbanks in 2010 and the B.Tech. in Mining Engineering from
the Indian Institute of Technology-Banares Hindu University, India in 2006. His work experiences include
Iron & Steel industry, Alaska Department of Natural Resources in a mining software engineer role. His
research interests include optimization, modeling and simulation, machine learning, and computational
intelligence.
