  1. INCOSE/NAFEMS Systems Modeling & Simulation Working Group January 28, 2013

  2. Agenda • Mechatronics • Logical-Physical Co-Simulation • Beginning of the Systems Modeling and Simulation Working Group • Systems Modeling and Simulation Working Group (SMSWG) • The Event • Vision of the SMSWG • Actions of the SMSWG • By Laws (under construction) • Proposed Activities (under construction) • SMSWG Initial Participants • Why Participate? • Dedication

  3. One Example of Systems Integration • In many cases: • Sensors: collect data regarding the state of the mechanical system (engineering analysis) • Control modules: using the sensor information compute the necessary actuation to advance the mechanical system in the desired state • Actuators: apply the (mechanical) loading (e.g., electric motors, hydraulic pistons) computed by the control modules.

  5. Beginnings of the Systems Modeling and Simulation Working Group (SMSWG) Objective: • NAFEMS and INCOSE agreed to a mutually beneficial strategy to develop a collaborative relationship that would benefit both the organizations and their members.  The following individuals participated in a collaborative meeting to proceed with forming a NAFEMS Technical Working Group to develop recommendations for mutual collaboration. The NAFEMS Representatives were as follows: Tim Morris, NAFEMS Chief Executive Michele Ringrose, NAFEMS North American Representative Rodney Dreisbach, NAFEMS Americas Steering Committee, Chairman Edward Ladzinski, NAFEMS Americas Steering Committee The INCOSE representatives were as follows:  Samantha Robitaille, INCOSE President John Thomas, INCOSE President Elect Jean-Claude Roussel, INCOSE Technical Director Ralf Hartmann, INCOSE Director for Strategy Holly Witte, INCOSE Executive Management

  6. Systems Modeling and Simulation Working Group (SMSWG) Objective: • NAFEMS and INCOSE agreed to a mutually beneficial strategy to develop a collaborative relationship that would benefit both the organizations and their members. • The mission of the Systems Modeling & Simulation Working Group (SMSWG) is to: • develop a vendor-neutral, end-user driven consortium • promote the advancement of the technology and practices associated with co-simulation of systems engineering and engineering analysis • act as the governing body of standards in this space • drive the strategic direction for technology development in this space • This includes education, communication, promotion of standards, and development of requirements that will have general benefits to the simulation and analysis communities.

  7. The Event  The following individuals participated in the Collaboration Kick-Off call on August 18, 2011 where an agreement in principle was made to proceed with forming a sub-committee to develop recommendations for mutual collaboration. The NAFEMS Representatives were as follows: Tim Morris, NAFEMS Chief Executive Michele Ringrose, NAFEMS North American Representative Rodney Dreisbach, NAFEMS North American Steering Committee Chairman Edward Ladzinski, NAFEMS North American Steering Committee The INCOSE representatives were as follows:  Samantha Robitaille, INCOSE President John Thomas, INCOSE President Elect Jean-Claude Roussel, INCOSE Technical Director Ralf Hartmann, INCOSE Director for Strategy Holly Witte, INCOSE Executive Management And at the end of a 14 month study

  8. Vision of the SMSWG Manufacturers in all industries face a number of challenges, including increased product complexity and a need to reduce time-to-market. Among the most difficult challenges are promoting collaboration among multiple engineering disciplines, integrating complex systems engineering processes, and enabling the sharing of intellectual property among globally dispersed teams, among companies and industries. At the same time, costs must be tightly controlled while still ensuring that performance objectives can be met. To address these areas of concern, INCOSE/NAFEMS has established the Systems Modeling & Simulation Working Group (SMSWG). The SMSWG will define best practices and standards for vendors to develop and manufacturers to follow the merging of engineering analysis with the overall systems behavior analysis to perform more realistic, accurate, and lifelike experiences. Successful execution will result in new opportunities for industries to fundamentally transform their business processes and reduce development cycle time and cost by providing an upfront optimization of the product for the complete product life cycle.

  9. Actions of the SMSWG • Implementation of a joint cross organizational WG on “Systems Modeling and Simulation” • NAFEMS to launch a new international Technical Working Group (TWG) "Systems Modeling and Simulation" • INCOSE to launch a new WG "Systems Modeling and Simulation" • INCOSE to integrate Engineering Analysis and Simulation within the Model Based System Engineering initiative • NAFEMS and INCOSE to offer jointly "Systems Modeling and Simulation" focused events and to stimulate cross fertilization • NAFEMS and INCOSE to provide mutual assistance and support for international standards • NAFEMS and INCOSE to co-develop Working Groups on the topic of "Systems Modeling and Simulation" • NAFEMS and INCOSE to mutually support specific, non-funded, events of each organization. Events to be determined but to include: NAFEMS World Congress, INCOSE Symposium. Such support will include invitations to each organization’s meetings on subjects of mutual interest • NAFEMS and INCOSE to develop a joint approach for interfacing with other organizations in related professional areas • NAFEMS and INCOSE will each name a representative who will act as a liaison between each organization

  10. By-Laws (under construction) • Purpose • General Powers • Members, Tenure, Qualification • Election • Meetings • Communication • Contracts • Publications • Amendments • …

  11. Proposed Activities (under construction) • Investigate & develop a deeper understanding in subject areas • Develop a SMSWG Technical Roadmap • Identify key senior executive mentors • Identify and learn from universities and research organizations doing work in this space • Develop requirements • Share / exchange SMSWG deployment & use experiences • Respond to business segment needs • SMSWG Team Member Information •  Publish white papers and similar documents • Publish "Best / Recommended Practices" guides • Produce requirements documents •  Provide education about SMSWG • …

  12. SMSWG Initial Participants Initial response from NAFEMS members was overwhelming. Initial Interested Steering Committee End Users: Airbus Bell Boeing Caterpillar Dana ESA Ford GM John Deere Medtronic Rolls-Royce US Navy Research: ODU National Labs Multiple Universities Vendors: Dassault Systemes Siemens PLM PTC MathWorks Comet DPS

  13. Why Participate? • Define the Frontier • Establish global Engineering Systems cross-industry community with one vision… • Define Infrastructure • Establish By-Laws • Solicit membership • Perform Membership Management • Propose activities • Initialize standards • Define best practices • Establish collaboration rules between different user groups and software vendors • Create Discussion Forums

  14. Commitment • Evangelize the Co-Simulation user experience through collaborative leadership for Engineering Systems • INCOSE + NAFEMS = 10,000 members • Broadcast to all industry segments • Branch initiatives into each geo (Americas, Europe/Africa, Asia) • Create a viral Co-Simulation Engineering environment
