Advanced ways of System Engineering, Safety Analysis and Automated Communication
How do you spend these days at the very end of a year? “Hidden” between Christmas and New Year this period often feels as if it is somehow “protected” from the regular business activities. Many people are on vacation – you, your business partners, clients, … (maybe even your service providers ;-( ). It is Read More …
Together with my co-authors, Dieter Fasol and Peter Bunus, I am happy to announce that we successfully submitted the contribution “A Model-Based Safety and Dependability Methodology for Missile Safety Engineering” at the 33rd International System Safety Conference (ISSC2015) taking place right this week, Aug 24-27 2015 in San Diego, California. ISSC 2015 San Diego The Read More …
After working hard since spring of this year, structurizing content, evaluating WordPress-themes, formulating texts, selecting pictures, planning articles … … we are finally happy to present the relaunched website www.icomod.com! icomod consulting | Supporting virtual Systems Engineering, Requirements Management and Safety Analysis The goal was to provide a better design, more intuitive navigation Read More …
What are real „collaborative” tools in the system engineering process of complex systems? – Throughout today’s product development process there are a lot of typical islands of data, e.g. DOORS for Requirement Management, Visio for the Architecture drawings, Simulink for the analysis, FaultTree+ for Safety-/Risk-assessment, … and MS-Office to glue it all together. Independent of Read More …
When it comes to the question of categorizing some of the standard analysis methods in the field of safety and risk engineering, one of the illustration that I use are the two “axes of knowledge”: the knowledge about the causes and the knowledge about the consequences. If for both axes we consider just the two Read More …
“Design for Availability – Flexible System Evaluation with a Model Library of Generic RAMST Blocks” is the title of our joint presentation at the ongoing First European Conference of the Prognostics and Health Management Society, taking place July 3 to 5 2012 in Dresden, Germany. The contribution reports about a modelbased approach of amending a Read More …
This will be the place to sporadically post some articles that we consider interesting in the context of modelbased tools, simulation, safety analyses, product development processes, standards, new technologies, web application, business cases and so on.
