About this course

A two-day short course, based on segments of three graduate systems engineering courses, on the digital engineering of systems. It covers the US DoD Digital Engineering Strategy and competency framework, M&S across the systems engineering process, MBSE and SysML, simulation interoperability, environment modelling, and a collaborative-environment architecture for digital engineering including an authoritative source of truth, digital threads and digital twins.

Course presenters may include

  • James E. Coolahan, PhDChief Technology Officer, Coolahan Associates, LLC; retired from Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory
