Business drivers are forcing a "simulation revolution" to overcome the expertise-based limitations restricting the expansion of Engineering Simulation applications. The Simulation Revolution is about making Engineering Simulation widely available & appropriate to support improved decision making throughout the entire life-cycle of engineered products and processes.
The ASSESS (Analysis, Simulation, and Systems Engineering Software Strategies) Initiative was formed to bring together key players to guide and influence strategies for software tools for model-based analysis, simulation, and systems engineering.
The role of Engineering Simulation is changing. The changing role of Engineering Simulation is really about business benefits. However, achieving those benefits and the associated growth of the Engineering Simulation market is tempered due to the lack of expertise available.

The Simulation Revolution is about making Engineering Simulation widely available & appropriate to support improved decision making throughout the entire life-cycle of engineered products and processes.
The ASSESS (Analysis, Simulation, and Systems Engineering Software Strategies) Initiative was formed to bring together key players to guide and influence strategies for software tools for model-based analysis, simulation, and systems engineering. The ASSESS Vision is "to significantly expand the use and benefit of software tools for model-based analysis, simulation, and systems engineering in the engineering applications domain." To achieve this vision, the ASSESS Initiative collaborates with multiple activities and organizations across the complete spectrum of Engineering Simulation, including NAFEMS.
The ASSESS Initiative's primary goal is to facilitate a revolution of enablement that will vastly increase the availability and utility of Engineering Simulation, leading to significantly increased usage and business benefit from model-based Engineering Simulation technologies across the full spectrum of industries, applications, and users.
The ASSESS initiative has been organized around a key set of themes associated with expanding the usage and benefit of Engineering Simulation. The ASSESS Congress provides an opportunity for key participants to explore and progress these themes in depth. In addition to the ASSESS Congress, theme-focused working groups have been established to move the actionable themes forward between each annual ASSESS Congress by providing direction and guidance related to the mission, goals, activities, deliverables, and collaborations for each ASSESS theme.
Align = Alignment of Commercial, Research, and Government Efforts
Business = Business Challenges
Credibility = Engineering Simulation Credibility
DOES = Democratization of Engineering Simulation
Generative = Generative Design
Integration = Integration of Systems and Detailed Sub-System Simulations
Twin(s) = Engineering Simulation Digital Twin(s)
The ASSESS Congress provides an opportunity for key participants to explore and progress these themes in depth.
The ASSESS Strategic Insight Papers provide deep-dive insights into strategic issues.
The ASSESS Strategic Insight Webinars provide web-based presentations of ASSESS Congress presentations, Strategic Insight Paper presentations, and other related presentations.
This session will provide an update on the ASSESS Initiative completed and planned activities to support the Simulation Revolution.
