IAF GNF Session - Systems Architecture and Realization: Key Success Competencies

Описание: Day: Wednesday 1 October
Time: 16:35 - 17:35 AEST
Location: Parkside 2

New at IAC! The first-ever plenary on systems architecture and engineering! Space systems change, especially in the commercial and defense/security fields! New companies enter the market. Technology breakthroughs and interdependencies of in-orbit and terrestrial systems drive complexity to ever new heights.

"Systems of Systems" with diverging stakeholder requirements and functionality demands depend upon multi-disciplinary holistic analyses, architectures and realization approaches. Software driven and AI supported, cyber-secure autonomous solutions, based upon model/simulation/virtual reality engineering judgements ensure government, prime contractor and supply chain successes.

The challenge? System architects and engineers are scarce and in high demand. Will they be available tomorrow? What can be done? A paradigm change is needed for systems education and career paths! Closer cooperation between industry, universities, government agencies is mandatory!

This session will feature several short and focused viewpoints from top-level executives with vast experience in architecting and realizing complex space and defense programs. They will share stories of success and failure. The outcome of this plenary will be to generate a “Call for Action” with recommendations for coping with the challenge.
