NASA SBIR Award Supports Collaborative Systems Engineering

This post originally appeared on the Adventium Labs website. Adventium was acquired by Galois in 2022. Adventium Labs recently won a Phase I NASA Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program to tackle the formidable problem of aggregating data and synchronizing models across multiple diverse organizations. Led by Steve Vestal, INDIGO (INsight to Diverse Information using Graphs and Ontologies) will support integration among tools and exchange of information between multidisciplinary artifacts using automated reasoning and open interface standards.

Army Awards Phase II SBIR to Help Curb the Prohibitive Costs of Upgrading Legacy DoD Systems

This post originally appeared on the Adventium Labs website. Adventium was acquired by Galois in 2022. When upgrading or redesigning a complex system, like an aircraft, it is crucial to understand the ripple effect of design changes on the system’s resulting costs, especially costs related to re-certification. Small, local changes to any subsystem or component can have broad impacts on system requirements, including size, weight, and power budgets; bandwidth and processor utilization; timing constraints; safety requirements; and security controls.
