Introduction of how to apply Natural System Ecosystem mimicry and Eco-Design and how to implement this using MBSE and digital Engineering. We will cover an overview of the latest research of ecosystem mimicry for System Engineering and show you where to apply it in the SE Life cycle.
Presenters:
Allison Lyle: Ecosystem mimicry and implementation using MBSE and Digital Engineering
Paul McGoey: Overview and guide for where you would apply in SE life cycle
Allison Lyle is a practicing engineering consultant and instructor focused on applying and elevating systems thinking to domains where physical, ecological and social systems intersect. She works with teams to pragmatically apply systems thinking principles and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) processes and tools to advance product and system development.
In her work she draws on experience and expertise from the medical device, agriculture and sustainability domains. She has led the development of multiple medical device systems (surgical and diagnostic) through the full product development cycle, from stakeholder analyses to technical feasibility assessments, design, regulatory approval, manufacturing and commercialization. She is currently focused on analyzing natural systems to understand how we can apply ecological design principles to human engineered systems for improved efficacy, integration and long-term resilience.
Mr. McGoey is a Classic Jurassic Systems Engineer, having obtained an MS Eng SE in the previous century followed by a multi-decade career in National Lab, A&E, and Aerospace. He is a CSEP and active NSWG member.
