Fireside Chat: Why Engineers will be the key to unlock the digitilization potential at manufacturers

The ever-advancing digitization is being driven by the convergence of simulation, data, and HPC. While virtual methods, interoperable tools, and standardized interfaces become state of the art, the engineers and their management will play a significant role to break down silos and benefit from a Digital Thread. In this fireside chat, we will discuss the importance of people to unleash the potential of Digital Twins, how they can combine the different fields of product development and what is still missing to make the connection.

Analytics for Heavy Equipment

Serba Dinamik is an engineering company specializing in operations and maintenance (O&M), engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC), and IT solutions for energy exploration and production firms. Their team worked with Altair to develop a Smart Predictive Maintenance Data System (SPMDS) utilizing Knowledge Studio and Panopticon. Maintenance crews use Panopticon-powered dashboards built into SPMDS to monitor every sensor mounted on operating turbines in real time. AI models built with Knowledge Studio identify potential failures or issues that require engineering attention, and, based on that understanding, take turbines offline only when necessary.

The Next Generation Data Scientist

Gartner recently released their  'Top 10 Data & Analytics Trends for 2020' where they stated that "the collision of data and analytics will increase interaction and collaboration between historically separate data and analytics roles. This impacts not only the technologies and capabilities provided, but also the people and processes that support and use them. The spectrum of roles will extend from traditional data and analytics to information explorer and citizen developer as examples". With Forbes predicting that there will be a shortage of at least 250,000 data scientists in the US alone by 2024, how will our data-driven enterprises survive? Should we empower citizen data scientists and embody a data democratisation approach or is there a better way to optimise our data science teams? Join us as we discuss  'The Next Generation Data Scientist’  with our expert panel. Discussion Points: What type of person is the Next Generation Data Scientist? How can organisations develop these highly prized people? Can you explain one of the most advanced data science projects in your organisation and some of the stumbling blocks you have encountered along the way?
