Georgia Tech's Chris Paredis to Keynote at PLM Road Map
 RIVERSIDE,
CT, Apr 18, 2011 - CPDA is pleased to announce that Georgia Tech's Dr. Chris Paredis will join HP's
Christian Verstraete as a keynote speaker at its annual PLM Road Map conference,
to be held at The Inn at St. John's, outside of Detroit, Michigan on October 4th
and 5th.In his keynote presentation, The Payoff for Model-Based Systems
Engineering with SysML: Targeting Tight Integration of Software and
Hardware, Dr. Paredis will highlight the benefits of Model-Based Systems
Engineering with SysML.
SysML supports the development of the growing range of products that rely
on a tight integration between software and hardware, often referred to as
mechatronic systems, embedded control systems, or cyber-physical systems.
Introduced by the Object Management Group as a general purpose modeling
language to support Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), the Systems
Modeling Language (OMG SysML) extends the OMG Unified Modeling Language
(UML) by including additional modeling constructs suited for modeling the
physical aspects of systems in addition to the software aspects. The
presentation will review the current state of adoption of SysML in industry,
and the challenges an organization faces when adopting MBSE. The
presentation will also take a look forward to identify and predict future
trends in MBSE, specifically related to the full potential payoff of
knowledge reuse and architecture optimization.

School of Mechanical Engineering, Associate Director of the Model-Based
System Engineering Center, Georgia Tech
Dr. Chris Paredis has a broad, multidisciplinary background. His research
focuses on Model-Based Systems Engineering, combining aspects of decision
theory, information technology, simulation, and systems theory to support
the design of complex mechatronic systems. In these areas, he has published
more that 100 refereed journal articles and conference papers. He is active
within the Object Management Group (OMG), leading a working group on the
SysML-Modelica Transformation Specification and serving on the SysML
Revision Task Force. Dr. Paredis received the 2007 CETL/BP Junior Faculty
Teaching Excellence Award and the 2007 SAE Ralph R. Teetor Educational
Award. In 2007-2008, he was the Chair of the ASME Computers and Information
in Engineering (CIE) Division. From 1996 to 2002, he was a Research
Scientist at the Institute for Complex Engineered Systems at Carnegie Mellon
University. He received his M.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the
Catholic University of Leuven (Belgium) in 1988, and his M.S. and Ph.D. in
Electrical and Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University in 1990
and 1996, respectively.
