Highlighted Articles in This Edition
This edition features three important articles:
Guiding Supply Chain Security in Aeronautic Development
Written by MITRE and Boeing, this article examines the challenges of evaluating supply chain risks in aeronautics. It points out the lack of standardized risk sets and assessment methods. The authors introduce a System of Trust™ (SoT) framework to address these challenges and share insights from NASA's research on supply chain variations and their impact on companies like Boeing and Airbus.
Advancing Space Technology for ISAM Maturity and Success
Authored by Dassault Systèmes, this article explores the rapidly growing field of commercial space travel, reminiscent of the aviation boom a century ago. It underscores the importance of new missions related to In-Space Service, Assembly, and Manufacturing (ISAM), which not only enhance space capabilities but also improve life on Earth.
Digital Engineering Enables Innovative Hardware Integration
This article from SimVentions discusses the critical need for reliability and redundancy in avionics systems, especially under tight budget and time constraints. It examines the US Navy’s Hardware Open Systems Technology (HOST) standard and advocates for a modular approach to hardware interoperability. The research led to the creation of the HOST Hardware Integration Toolkit (HHITS), demonstrating how Digital Engineering is transforming avionics automation and integration.
Ongoing Exploration of Relevant Topics
The Journal of Innovation consistently features a variety of themes, covering subjects such as digital transformation across industries, the effects of the industrial internet, IoT integration, and innovative strategies for smart cities and factories. Readers can access both current and past editions of OMG’s JoI, offering a wealth of information on these dynamic topics.
