Presentation will include a discussion on the challenges and opportunities associated with the “single digital thread” vision.
ANN ARBOR, Michigan, 25 January 2017—CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm, is pleased to announce that Don Tolle, CIMdata’s Director for Simulation-Driven Systems Development Consulting Practice & Knowledge Council, will make a presentation at the INCOSE International Workshop which takes place in Torrance, California from January 28-31. Mr. Tolle will make his presentation titled, The intersection of PLM, MBSE, SMS: What’s next, on Sunday, January 29 as part of the MBSE Workshop: SE Transformation & MBSE Initiative.
The large number of acronyms being used to define the digitalization of product development processes throughout the lifecycle is confusing. As industry moves towards the adoption of model-centric and systems-driven development processes they may be regarded as becoming counterproductive. Mr. Tolle’s presentation will highlight the differences and overlap of these different viewpoints and discuss the challenges and opportunities associated with the “single digital thread” vision.
Mr. Tolle has more than 35 years of industry experience in the disciplines of virtual product design, development, and performance validation. He has worked with global manufacturing companies in the automotive, aerospace/defense, industrial equipment, marine, consumer products, medical products, and high-tech electronics industries. Mr. Tolle’s current interests center on the definition and adoption of model-based engineering methodologies and tools to connect the disparate and “loosely connected” disciplines involved with systems engineering and conceptual design and the persistent use of robust system models throughout the product development lifecycle.
Mr. Tolle and other members of the CIMdata team will be available to meet with attendees during this four-day event. To set up a meeting, please visit the CIMdata website at: http://www.cimdata.com/en/meet-with-cimdata.
