Despite a year of serious challenges in the world, Intercax made great strides in 2021. We have been realizing our vision that Syndeia should be about more than tool integration and interoperability; it should be a Digital Thread Platform, a user gateway into the entire system of federated models. We have also been successful as

Intercax has been closely following the cybersecurity incident CVE-2021-44228 (Log4j 2, Log4Shell). The Intercax Cybersecurity Team has done an initial investigation of this event. The Intercax Syndeia product is not affected by this event. Syndeia uses log4j 1.2.17 which is not affected by CVE-2021-44228. A detailed Cybersecurity Information Briefing related to this event was published

This series of articles presents stories that promote “tactical graphs”, the use of Syndeia Digital Thread, to make better business decisions. Each article: presents a business scenario, offers a Gremlin-language graph query, states how to execute the query, and then dissects that query. Reading these stories, you may learn how to tailor these queries for

As part of building a standard Digital Thread platform, Intercax has accompanied each new feature of Syndeia with new tutorials and video demonstrations. As the number of individual training elements approaches 200, we have been reorganizing our training program to help users achieve good operating performance with minimum time and labor. With this objective, we

Syndeia is a digital thread platform for enabling model-based engineering (MBE/MBSE) of complex systems. It provides services to author, query, visualize, and curate open digital threads. Though all of Syndeia’s functionality is accessible via its user interface – Syndeia Cloud Web Dashboard and Syndeia local client Dashboards (SysML tool plugins and Syndeia Standalone) – there

We have posted a new 6-minute video, “Syndeia: Digital Thread Platform for Model-Based Engineering”, to our home page. While primarily intended for newcomers to Syndeia, it may also help those already familiar with the platform to appreciate how the thinking behind it has changed. First, we are calling Syndeia a “Digital Thread Platform”. While interoperability,

A practical Digital Thread capability has two aspects, to build and maintain the network of connections that define a system and to analyze and document that network to provide the project team members with the information they need. In this blog series, we will focus on that second aspect. Syndeia, the MBSE integration platform from

Shortly after the release of Syndeia version 3.4, Dr. Dirk Zwemer and Dr. Manas Bajaj gave an on-line presentation to a group specifically interested in the new integration to Aras Innovator. Lightly edited down to 40 minutes, this presentation provides an in-depth demonstration of many of the new features in Syndeia 3.4, particularly as they

Intercax is pleased to announce the release of Syndeia Cloud 3.3 SP1 with the following updates: Support for Microsoft/Azure AD as an LDAP authentication provider – Syndeia Cloud 3.3 SP1 includes additional LDAP configuration parameters that make it possible for Syndeia admins to use different LDAP providers with Syndeia Cloud. The conf in Syndeia Cloud

A key point in this blog series is that multiple engineering software tools play a role in model-based mission engineering. In our example in Figure 1, we posit that CONOPS might begin in a specialized requirements management tool and progress might be tracked in a project management tool. We use Syndeia, the interoperability platform from
