On July 27, 2015, I gave a Keynote Address to the Summer Simulation Multi-Conference for the Society for Modeling & Simulation International (SCS). I talked about micro-verse, the Incredible Hulk, the history everyday reality, Internet of Things, the Science of (or lack there-of) Systems Engineering, the concept of Emergence, and M&S. It ended with a big heartfelt thank-you to all the modelers present.
Here are my slides and references for those who want more detail on my lecture. Enjoy.
In 2014 I gave two talks dealing with the newly released INCOSE Vision 2025. I gesticulated about how difficult it is to predict the future. But System Engineers should be at the forefront of innovation and invention as we bring a holistic point of view to these complex and world spanning problems. So take your place in making a better world and a brighter future.
For those who want more detail, I have links to the videos of my lecture, my slides and all my references. Enjoy.
Is this cloud thing another new fangled fad fleeting about in the firmament only to burn out as more people discover it's just a fancy figment of some marketers imagination? Fads fade fast when their promises are greater than reality — I’m looking at you AI and TQM.
