Digital Engineering in Flux - Realizing the Promise of INCOSE’s Vision 2035

Idaho National Laboratory defines Digital Engineering (DE) as “a holistic approach to the design of a complex system: Design using models/data instead of documents, integration of data across models, and the culture change across project teams to realize significant risk reduction on construction cost and schedule.” Because of the direct linkages between models and model elements, successful DE requires a transformation not only in processes and tools but also in philosophy. This presentation will examine the current and near-term state of digital engineering with an emphasis on the vision presented by the International Council on Systems Engineering in its recently release Vision 2035.
