  • Patent number: 12367015
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a sharable script related to an input digital model on a digital platform are provided. The method includes receiving a user request indicative of a digital task involving an input digital model, and retrieving a corresponding input digital model file. Then, determining characteristic attributes of the input digital model, where the characteristic attributes include digital artifacts generated from the input digital model file. Then, selecting from a collection of templates, using a machine learning (ML) engine, a template matching the characteristic attributes of the input digital model. The ML engine may be trained on documentations of digital tools integrated into the digital platform, a resource-capability mapping of the digital platform, and sample digital thread orchestration scripts collected through past uses of the digital platform. Finally, the method includes generating the sharable script that implements the digital task, based on the selected template.

  • Patent number: 12358642
    Abstract: An unmanned vehicle includes at least one navigation sensor configured to measure navigation data indicative of an environment, at least one status sensor configured to measure status data indicative of operating parameters of a hardware system and a computing system. The computing system includes a navigation engine configured to receive the navigation data and status data and plan a path through the environment and a security engine. The security engine is configured to detect that an unauthorized user is attempting to access the navigation data or the status data, send an alert to an authorized user indicating that the unauthorized user is attempting to access navigation data or status data, and send, to the unauthorized user, simulated data including one or both of simulated navigation data and simulated status data.

  • Patent number: 12333228
    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a sharable model splice of a digital engineering (DE) model are provided. The method comprises receiving a DE model file in a native file format; extracting model data; storing the model data in a storage area; generating external, commonly-accessible splice functions that enable external access to digital artifacts derived from the model data; and generating the sharable model splice, which comprises access to a selective portion of the digital artifacts, and access to at least one of the splice functions. The splice functions provide addressable API or SDK endpoints that enable access by third-party applications and users to the digital artifacts without access to an entirety of the DE model file and without requiring direct engagement with a DE tool associated with the DE model type. These endpoints also provide a unified programming interface to sharable model splices generated from DE models.

  • Patent number: 12259995
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for secure communications in a digital engineering ecosystem. In some implementations, a digital platform receives a request from a user device to interact with a digital model. The digital platform determines whether a user operating the user device is authorized. In response to determining the user is authorized to access the digital platform, the digital platform generates a token that provides the user with access to the digital platform. The digital platform determines whether the request includes malicious activity. In response to determining that the request is absent of the malicious activity, the digital platform executes a digital thread that executes one or more operations using digital tools and the digital model. The digital platform provides data indicative of the one or more operations executing the digital thread to the user device.

  • Patent number: 12248740
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving design and/or engineering data (D/E data) corresponding to a prototype representation of a product and transmitting one or more inputs derived from the D/E data to one or more digital engineering tools for processing. The method also includes receiving engineering-related data outputs from the one or more digital engineering tools and receiving data corresponding to one or more common validation and verification (V&V products). The method further includes identifying one or more requirements for the product based on the data corresponding to the one or more common V&V products; determining whether or not the one or more requirements have been satisfied; and presenting information corresponding to the engineering-related data outputs and/or the data corresponding to the one or more common V&V products. The method also includes receiving instructions from the user device, and performing one or more manipulations of the D/E data.

  • Patent number: 12105826
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for securely certifying products in an ecosystem. In some implementations, a digital platform receives a user request to access digital models. The digital platform determines whether the user is authorized to access the digital models. In response, the digital platform generates a transaction request to send to a location of the digital models, wherein the transaction request comprises data identifying operations to perform using the digital models. The digital platform transmits, to the location of the digital models, the generated transaction request that causes execution of the operations. The digital platform receives data representative of a result of the operations performed. The digital platform provides, to a user interface of the user device, the data representative of the result. The digital platform audits the data related to the transaction request and the data representative of the result.
