Dassault Aviation will use Dassault Systèmes' collaboration and data science capabilities based on a sovereign cloud on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to optimize the availability of its military aircraft fleet for the French Ministry of Defense. The data management will be done in the virtual twin of each and every plane

From a battlefield - to a battlefield

The conference held at Bar-Ilan University focused on four main topics: strategy and thinking directions for building the future land force; Future Power Building Based on Artificial Intelligence; the place of the unmanned in the future power building; and the industrial angle in the power building

A "dirty bomb" is a dispersal device that contains a radioactive material - possibly uranium, but it is more likely low-grade materials such as cesium-137 or other radioactive materials that are commonly used in less protected medical facilities * The only country that has evidence of having used such a weapon is Russia - in Chech Nia
The world map is made of chips. Technological development is only possible when the borders are open. Image: depositphotos.com

Will stopping chip sales to China slow down technology development worldwide?

Scientific and technological progress is based on collaborations, on the exchange of knowledge and experience, on a global market of ideas. Any harm to the ability of scientists to communicate freely across political borders will also harm their ability to produce new knowledge, new ideas and ultimately - also new technologies * and this is even before China's threat to invade Taiwan
