Orlando Chapter March 2012 Meeting
About the Presentation Being a systems engineer involves much more than simply knowing how things work. As systems engineers, we engage in the process of innovation as we develop new systems or modernize older existing systems. This presentation explores nine basic concepts of innovation using common, ordinary objects as tangible case studies. These objects range from paper clips, aluminum cans, airplanes and building architectures. We explore particularly how economics, ecology, aesthetics, ethics, politics, and culture can shape the design, development, production, and construction in systems engineering projects. This discussion is based a book by Henry Petroski by the same name. About the Speaker Paul is a senior systems engineer for Astronautics Corporation of America in Milwaukee, WI. His primary systems engineering role is on avionics maintenance systems of Airbus aircraft, data security on aircraft, and leading special company initiatives. He has thirteen years of experience in the aerospace and defense industry. He has worked as a systems engineer, a software engineer, a factory automation engineer, and a quality engineer. He has previously worked at L-3 Communications, Raytheon, Hynix Semiconductor, and Southwest Research Institute. Paul White has a graduate certificate in Systems Engineering and Architecting from the Stevens Institute of Technology, a Master of Science in Computer Science from Texas A&M University—Commerce, and a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Texas A&M University—College Station. Paul White has been a member of INCOSE since 2007. He currently serves as the Program Chair for the Chicagoland Chapter. He previously served as the President Elect, the Vice President of Communications, and the Vice President of Chapter Development for the North Texas Chapter. Orlando Chapter February 2012 Meeting
About the Presentation Dr. Smith will explore the natural synergy that exists between robotic surgery and the advantages of simulation systems in surgical education. The practice of surgery is being transformed by the application of minimally invasive and robotic procedures and tools. These allow a surgeon to perform operations with much more control and fidelity than has been common for traditional open surgery. These devices also create an operating environment which is extremely conducive to teaching via computer and simulation-based devices. Realism is no longer defined by the surgeon's hands on the patient's flesh. It has been intermediated by computer technologies which can be replicated with current simulation tools, opening the door to an extremely large new domain for simulation practitioners. About the Speaker Dr. Smith is the Chief Technology Officer for Florida Hospital's Nicholson Center where he is leading a team of researchers in exploring the use of telesurgery and applying simulation devices to surgical education. He was previously the CTO for U.S. Army Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEO STRI), a Research Scientist for Texas A&M University, and CTO and Vice President at Titan Systems Inc. He serves as a Graduate Faculty Scholar at the University of Central Florida, Visiting Lecturer at Georgia Institute of Technology, and is on the faculty of the Florida Hospital College of Health Sciences.He has been a very active member of the simulation profession for over 20 years, publishing over 150 technical and management papers and developing four commercial courses on simulation technologies and applications. He has published five books on technology and management, as well as contributing chapters to 10 other books. Dr. Smith holds a B.S. in Applied Mathematics, M.S. in Statistics, Master’s and Doctorate in Business Administration, and Ph.D. in Computer Science.

About the Presentation Fred Beltzer joins us to discuss privacy and security issues that we need to think about in all walks of life. Fred covers eMail, credit cards, accounts, phishing, firewalls, and more security topics from recognizing spoof (fake) eBay websites to setting up filters, rules, and keyloggers. No e-mail communication is 100% secure so we must protect ourselves. We will also be discussing how to spot a fake website, not getting phished and what a card skimmer looks like on an ATM. Take control of protecting yourself in the 21st Century. About the Speaker Mr. Fred Beltzer is a Security Systems Professional; currently an Information Security Systems Engineer with Lockheed Martin, Global Training and Logistics division in Orlando, FL. He has extensive and diverse experience within US defense-related Information Security for all services and across commercial industry. Fred received his BS degree in Computer Networking and his Master's from George Washington University in Engineering Management Systems Engineering, including a certificate via the National Security Agency - NSTISSI 4011 - National Training Standard for Information Systems Security Professionals (ISSP). Fred has also engaged in and received more than two dozen defense and commercial security certifications. Fred is a returning speaker to our monthly series, and has also delivered two day-long Information Assurance tutorials for our central Florida community in the past.
