Held in conjunction with the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in CAE Applications Conference

Call for Presentations Open - Deadline: 20 May 2026
The NAFEMS SPDM Conference is returning for 2026. This key event offers a unique forum for experts from different industries, academia, consultancies, and software vendors to share their knowledge, concepts, challenges, and solutions in Simulation Process and Data Management. NAFEMS has played a key role in establishing the value of SPDM systems, and this event is a great opportunity to connect with peers and continue this essential work.
Best practice methodologies–and challenges–in SPDM deployment, including rollouts to the engineering organization for corporate-wide usage.
Real-world examples of the business benefits and competitive advantages that can be gained from the adoption of SPDM solutions, including early AI deployments utilizing SPDM.
Standards for exchange and collaborative working, as well as those for long-term archival of simulation datasets.
How best to achieve technical interoperability between CAE tools, PDM/PLM systems, and AI agents to ensure seamless data flow.
NAFEMS is looking for your expertise and experience in SPDM. We want to hear about what you and your organization are working on, as well as your thoughts on future trends. We welcome participation from all types of organizations – large and small, commercial and educational, across all industries. Submit your abstract today.
The SPDM Conference takes place in conjunction with the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in CAE Applications Conference. The second day of the SPDM Conference is dedicated to SPDM and AI/ML, which will also be the focus of the first day of the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in CAE Applications Conference.
