Today, Intercax received a call from Mrs. Claus, the heart and soul of operations and logistics at North Pole. Seven days from the finale and at a time when hope and love cannot be delayed, Santa’s mission is at risk. Evolution of the Sleigh Delivery System (SDS) over the years has resulted in disintegrated silos

In this series, we’ve looked at many of the new user features in Syndeia 3.6. We’ll end the series with some important changes to the infrastructure and a brief look at the future. API Extensions All the Digital Thread Project capabilities presented on the web and plugin clients are backed by dedicated endpoints for working

As part of the release of Syndeia 3.6, we are publishing a series of blog posts highlighting the new features supporting practical implementation of digital threads in system development. One of the primary benefits of the digital thread is that it organizes system data from many different sources and makes it available in near real-time

Syndeia’s Generic RESTful API interface provides a powerful tool for adding new model repositories to a digital thread without customized coding by the vendor. With this post, we continue reviewing the RESTful API demo videos organized around each of five methods authenticating access to an external RESTful API-based repository: no authentication required, basic authentication and

There are thousands of model and data repositories that are potentially part of the digital engineering environment for organizations developing complex systems. No engineering software vendor has the resources to build and maintain integrations to even a sizeable fraction of these, especially since many are custom proprietary tools with only a small number of users.

We began this blog series with the idea, captured in the notional diagram in Figure 1, that there is a connection between project management metrics such as schedule, cost, and risk; the characteristics of the digital thread; and the specific queries that a digital thread platform might make. We looked at that connection in greater

In Parts 3 through 7 of this blog series, we have examined critical metrics associated with the digital thread and their relations with project metrics such as cost, schedule and risk.  We illustrated these with specific queries executed through the Syndeia digital thread platform, captured as a script in a Jupyter notebook. These metrics have

The previous four sections of this blog series have dealt with the characteristics of the digital thread itself and the modeling process. Verification deals with characteristics of the real system that the digital thread models, primarily its performance against requirements. Assuming the results of physical testing, simulation, and analysis are captured within the digital thread,

The digital thread is dynamic. Many of the federated data repositories are configuration-managed, and it is critical for the inter-model connections to be version-sensitive. Consistency of a digital thread implies that the version of a connected data element is the same now as when the connections to it were created or most recently updated. If
