Increasing complexity in the design and development of modern cyber-physical systems requires a high level of collaboration across disciplines. Computer-assisted collaboration, high quality, and reasonable time frames are increasingly necessary to maintain a complete digital thread. Data integration that enables cross-domain reasoning and collaboration at the engineering items, requirements, and models’ level is key to enabling and enhancing computer-assisted engineering and design across multiple abstraction levels, domains, and disciplines.
When systems engineers demand the integration of different engineering tools, they often face significant challenges associated with the number of tools, the number of standards to fulfill, the different formats of information, etc.
In this context, the notion of an Interoperability Hub supporting the concept of a Synchronized Source of Truth can provide solutions to many of the challenges and problems.
The presentation will focus on the following aspects:
