Abstract

How could the manufacturing modeling and simulation process be improved? Today simulation analysts typically code their models from scratch and build custom data translators to import required data. Manufacturing simulations often are built as single monolithic software systems. The development of neutral, vendor-independent data formats for storing simulation models and transferring data could greatly improve the accessibility of simulation technology to industry. Simulation standards for these models and data could help to accelerate the modeling process and reduce modeling costs. How can we determine what simulation standards need to be developed? This panel will discuss simulation standards needs from the perspective of users, vendors, academia, and government.
