Collaborative system engineering
Collaborative system engineering involves using a shared digital model to coordinate everybody involved in the development of large airborne systems.
Implemented as part of the ATL2 modernization project, this method is currently being applied as part of the NGF collaborative project and will be used for our new programs. Digital modelling allows security and data sovereignty considerations to be incorporated very early in the process. Dassault Aviation is also connected to the secure platforms used by the French defense procurement agency (DGA) and its partners, providing greater scope for joint development work.
Analysis, decision-making and big data
We make use of big data in all our programs. It enables the deployment of management, analysis and decision‑making tools, based on strictly controlled and sovereign shared data.
In 2020, to develop the Artificial Intelligence algorithms required for big data, we launched both an “AI Challenge for Industry” - in partnership with the Greater Paris Region - and specifically aeronautics‑related research as part of our Data Science Lab collaboration with Dassault Systèmes.
