1. 3 February 2009 1 Enabling Shipbuilding Interoperability ISE-6 Project Exchange of Product Models for Life Cycle Support ISE Overview Presentation (to be used as basis for Overview at Final Demo) As Presented on: February 3, 2009 in Port Hueneme, CA Presented by: Dr. Burton Gischner Electric Boat Corporation Integrated Shipbuilding Environment

2. 3 February 2009 2 Agenda Integrated Shipbuilding Environment (ISE)-6: A National Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) Project to Enable Interoperability for Product Life Cycle Support (PLCS) –Overview of NSRP –Interoperability Problem and Solution –ISE Architecture, Information Model Methodology, and Roadmap –Current focus on Life Cycle Support –Summary

3. 3 February 2009 3 National Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) Advanced Shipbuilding Enterprise (ASE) NSRP ASE is a collaboration of 12 major U.S. Shipyards focused on industry-wide implementation of solutions to reduce the cost of building and maintaining U.S. Navy warships The collaboration was created in 1998 by industry in response to the Navy’s request for a cost-effective, cross-program vehicle for rapid and effective implementation of cost-reduction processes and technologies to address common cost drivers The program targets solutions to consensus priority issues that exhibit a compelling business case – solutions that include both leverage of best commercial practices and creation of industry- wide initiatives with aggressive technology transfer to, and buy-in by, multiple U.S. Shipyards

4. 3 February 2009 4 NSRP Major Initiative Areas NSRP is structured into six Major Initiatives that tie the strategic vision to proposed industry research through collaborative R&D and other mechanisms Each Major Initiative constitutes a strategic technology focus area that is managed and budgeted by the NSRP ASE Program The Major Initiatives include: –Shipyard Production Process Technologies –Systems Technology –Business Process Technologies –Facilities, Tooling, and Risk Management –Product Design and Material Technologies –Crosscut Initiatives ISE is a major effort under the Systems Technology initiative

8. 3 February 2009 8 Interoperability Problem Communication between diverse computer systems is a big challenge in today’s environment: –As CAD/CAE/CAM systems have proliferated in the U.S. shipyards, interoperability among these systems has become a major issue –Interoperability is an issue within a shipyard as well as between partnering yards and with the Customer This situation is further aggravated because: –Most recent and future ship design and build contracts involve multiple shipyards –Length of time to design and build a ship often exceeds the life span of current computer systems, driving the need to move existing data to new computer systems –Requirements for life cycle support of the ship will far exceed the life span of current computer systems, again driving the need to move existing data to new computer systems

9. 3 February 2009 9 ISE Interoperability Solution The Integrated Shipbuilding Environment Consortium (ISEC) is attacking the interoperability problem on a broad front involving numerous standards, tools, and organizations including: –XML (Extensible Markup Language) –STEP (Standard for Exchange of Product Model Data) –isetools.org Website Demonstrate that improved interoperability will achieve cost reductions in Navy and commercial shipbuilding processes across shipyards and across the design/build/support life cycle Leverage past work by deploying information technology systems that meet the shipbuilder’s interoperability requirements Support other NSRP initiatives for better integration among shipbuilding enterprise functions

10. 3 February 2009 10 ISE Interoperability Solution Flexibility is critical –Allow shipyards to transform their data to/from common information model –Enable each enterprise to use its own tool set rather than all move to the same tools Drive development of shipbuilding product data standards (e.g. STEP, PLIB) –Construct a single Shipbuilding Information Model –Demonstrate and educate U.S. shipbuilding community Develop and demonstrate tools that are low cost –Can be selectively used by shipyards to support interoperability –Capitalize on XML and related Internet technologies

11. 3 February 2009 11 ISE Interoperability Solution The ISE Projects have helped develop standards, defined the approach, and implemented a solution to ensure information interoperability The goal of current and future efforts is to make these techniques and tools available in production to all U.S. shipyards –STEP Shipbuilding Translators –XML Tools –Common Parts Catalog Interfaces

12. 3 February 2009 12 XML + STEP XML = Industry Standard Container for Data STEP = ISO Standard Language for Data Data Company A Standards Virtual Ship part(s) Company B Transactions of Data Packaged in Standards XSLT - map data to another XML schema XML : Accepted format/schema method Web-enabling STEP : Standards for data expression Standards for geometric exchange Data is independent of IT infrastructure, but standards are required to reflect system needs for exchange

13. 3 February 2009 13 ISE Architecture Accessible to large and small shipyards –Only system dependency is Web infrastructure –Utilizes open standards Innovative integration of STEP and XML technologies –Supports sharing of geometry & geometric product models Permissive (mediation) architecture –Lets each enterprise choose its own tool set Amenable with CAD platforms used by U.S. shipbuilders ISE architecture represents an innovative, practical solution to the information interoperability challenge

14. 3 February 2009 14 ISE Tools Tools developed by the ISE Project are made available on the Web at: www.isetools.org These include: –Formal information requirements published Ship Piping Ship Structures Ship HVAC CPC Interfaces Electrical –Translator generators for custom representations –XML schema generators ISO 10303-28 ed 2 –Automated test frameworks for conformance testing

28. 3 February 2009 28 ISE Interoperability Progression Interoperability solutions must apply to the entire life cycle Initial efforts focused on Design issues –Transfer between multiple Design agents –Exchange between Design and Construction agents –Transfer of Product Models from Design agent to Customer Later stages focused on Manufacturing –ISE efforts addressed unique Manufacturing issues involved in transfer of Models for Steel Processing, HVAC, and Piping Focus has now shifted to Life Cycle processes (such as Maintenance and Repair) –Involves different issues and requires different information

29. 3 February 2009 29 Issues Arising for Data Transfers Throughout Life Cycle The information exchanged to support Maintenance and Repair is different from Design and Construction –As-built conditions of the ship needed –Changes made during ship’s service must be reflected in the product model –Updates to Catalogs for replacement parts must be available Ships have long life span (up to 50 years) –Ship will likely outlive CAD systems used during Design –Even computer hardware and storage media will not survive for life of ship Change management is a major cost driver throughout the life of the ship and should be addressed by any interoperability solution

30. 3 February 2009 30 Majority of the total cost of ownership of a Navy ship accrues after the ship has been delivered Life cycle support; repair, maintenance and overhaul; ships’ operations, testing and training are all information intensive processes The Navy has steadily moved toward more modern systems and technologies to cope with the burgeoning information needs, but technology has evolved faster than the deployed solutions Issues Arising for Data Transfers Throughout Life Cycle

31. 3 February 2009 31 ISE-6 Project Two year project, funded by National Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) Coordinate the use of the PLCS (STEP AP239), S1000D, and ISE standards to enable these standards to integrate more closely with the shipyard’s product model to enable product life cycle interoperability Phase 1 April 2007 through March 2008 –Integrated PLCS with ISE information models –Mapped core Navy ship configuration and logistics data to PLCS –Demonstrated an exchange to reuse configuration and logistics data across Integrated Data Environments (IDE) Phase 2 April 2008 through June 2009 –Integrate S1000D capabilities with PLCS and ISE information models –Manage change by linking S1000D modules to design structure –Demonstration details are currently being defined –Demo will probably take place in late April 2009
