Call For Papers & Presentations
Sixth Annual Western States Regional Conference
ENERGY | INFORMATION | SUSTAINABILITY
Welcome to the sixth annual Western States Regional Conference (WSRC) hosted by the Cascade Chapter in Tri-Cities, Washington! Systems Engineering plays an even more crucial role in the information-rich, energy transformed, and sustainment challenged world. This year we recognize the importance of taking charge and leading the way in developing innovative solutions and deploying them in real-world applications to tackle the challenges in energy, information and sustainability areas.
We seek a diverse group of experts from academia, industry, and government to share their perspectives and experiences. We encourage experts from different fields including Project Management and Quality Management to share their experience and stories as we invite you to join us for a thought-provoking and inspiring event.
Our presenters will showcase how they are leading the charge in their respective fields in product development, from artificial intelligence and data analytics, to critical information systems and infrastructure, to energy equity. We will explore the latest developments and real-world approaches that are shaping the future of Systems Engineering. We extend a special invitation for you to come and share your ideas and research around moving to digital engineering models, utilizing digital twins, applying artificial intelligence, and automating system, and their role in our future.
So come and join the charge towards an uncertain but excitingly innovative future. We look forward to seeing you at WSRC!
