	abstract = {As modern system of systems (SoS) become increasingly adaptive and human-centred, traditional architectures often struggle to support interoperability, reconfigurability, and effective human-system
interaction. This paper addresses these challenges by advancing the state-of-the-art holonic architecture for SoS, offering two main contributions to support these adaptive needs. First, we propose a layered architecture for holons, which includes reasoning, communication, and capabilities layers. This design facilitates seamless interoperability among heterogeneous constituent systems by improving data exchange and integration. Second, inspired by principles of intelligent manufacturing, we introduce specialised holons{\textendash}namely, supervisor, planner, task, and resource holons{\textendash}aimed at enhancing the adaptability and reconfigurability
of SoS. These specialised holons utilise large language models within their reasoning layers to support decision-making and ensure real-time adaptability. We demonstrate our approach through a 3D mobility case study
focused on smart city transportation, showcasing its potential for managing complex, multimodal SoS environments. Additionally, we propose evaluation methods to assess the architecture{\textquoteright}s efficiency and scalability, laying the groundwork for future empirical validations through simulations and real-world implementations.},
