      abstract = {This paper describes the way in which Systems Engineering  has been used to map out and address the technical,  operational and regulatory considerations necessary for  autonomous platform management of Unmanned Surface  Vehicles. Building on an approach originally developed for  Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, Model-Based Systems Engineering  has been used to derive the context and requirements for  this high-level ship control system to ensure that it is  properly structured, adaptable and re-useable. Mapping out  use cases of the platform systems of a large, complex  unmanned ship has allowed the functional requirements to be  derived rigorously and therefore informs the selection of  the most efficient architecture and interfaces ahead of  software creation. This practical application of Systems  Engineering has paved the way to the creation of robust,  open-architecture control of platform systems which enables  vessel autonomy in the Naval domain.},
