Digital Mission Engineering at Simulation World

Simulation World is the premier virtual event for executives, engineers, researchers, and manufacturing professionals to learn about engineering simulation. This free, two-day event (April 20–21) consists of interactive sessions, group discussions, and Ansys guided training.

During our daylong, digital mission engineering presentations, several AGI customers and partners will speak about the value of using computer-based modeling, simulation, and analysis to evaluate operational outcomes. Two of our partners — Carol Erikson, vice president, Systems Engineering and Digital Transformation, Northrop Grumman Space Systems and Larry James, retired Lt. Gen. USAF, deputy director, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory — will present as featured speakers in the two-day executive track.

Shrinking timelines and increasingly interconnected systems require revolutionary approaches to system design and operations. By adopting a digital mission engineering approach, you can dramatically reduce delivery times at every phase of the life cycle.
