Students will use AI to design a Scanning Electron Microscope as their Lab Exercise.
For non US Timezones, we split our normal 3 day course into 5 half-day modules. This allows us to deliver remotely on a world-wide basis. For training in Europe, we are partnered with our friends at oose.
If you've been wondering how to use AI to dramatically accelerate your systems engineering work, this class is for you. At the end of this class, students will be familiar with "the four pillars of SysML"(Requirements, Structure, Behavior and Parametrics), and will also know how to structure their SysML models to account for software, then generate User Interface Code from Behavior Models, Database Code from Structure Models, and Microcontroller Code from State Machines. Importantly, you'll learn how to use AI as a "subject matter expert" in defining the system/software model.
Students will model a Scanning Electron Microscope (both hardware and software) as their lab exercise, learning how to ask the right questions (i.e. prompts) to get help from AI in constructing the model.
Also, if you've ever wondered why most SysML processes pretend that software doesn't exist and how we can (and must) do better than that, this class is definitely for you. AIM Process addresses Hardware/Software Co-Design in a seamless, holistic manner. Watch "Without Software there is no System" on YouTube.
