Improvement of a single component in most cases requires a change of several other components and subsystems. To achieve this, companies have had to shift from the traditional product design approach to a digital approach that allows for e-building and testing before the prototype stage is reached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today\u2019s hosts are Nicholas Finberg of Siemens Global Marketing, and Tim Kinman, Vice President of Trending Solutions and Global Program Lead for Systems Digitalization at Siemens Digital Industries Software. They are joined by Mark Malinoski and Matt Bromley from the EDA space to talk about vertical connected development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this episode, you\u2019ll learn about the impact that complexity is having on the electronics design process. You\u2019ll also understand how digital twins and digital threads assist in managing collaboration by enhancing traceability and observability. Lastly, you\u2019ll learn about the challenges faced when decomposing down to silicone and then recomposing the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What You\u2019ll Learn in this Episode:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The impact that complexity is having on MBSE (04:10)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The challenge of decomposing systems architecture so as to have common context (07:48)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Why customers like to get an early architecture that meets specified requirements (10:58)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What it looks like as you drill down and refine an electronic systems architecture (14:44)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Why complexity increases as you move towards individual domains (21:44)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"bio-block row\">\n    <div class=\"col-3 order-first bio-pic\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/32\/2021\/11\/matt-bromley.jpg\" alt=\"Matt Bromley\" \/>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col-9 bio-info\">\n        <div class=\"bio-header\">\n            <h4 class=\"speakerintro\">Matt Bromley<\/h4>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-biography\">\n            <p>Vice President, Product Strategy and Technology<\/p>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-contact\">\n            <p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/mattbromley\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Connect with Matt<\/a><\/p>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"bio-block row\">\n    <div class=\"col-3 order-last bio-pic\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/32\/2021\/11\/mark-malinowski.jpg\" alt=\"Mark Malinoski\" \/>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col-9 bio-info\">\n        <div class=\"bio-header\">\n            <h4 class=\"speakerintro\">Mark Malinoski<\/h4>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-biography\">\n            <p>MBSE Solutions Director &#8211;
