SESP2021

GMV will be taking part in the upcoming ESA-organized Workshop on Simulation for European Space Programmes (SESP), held biannually since 1990 and to be run in digital mode this year from 30 March to 1 April. In 2010, SESP’s scope was widened to include the subject areas and organizational functions of the closely related Workshop on Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE).

SESP workshop is a uniquely focused forum where representatives of space agencies and industry can present and discuss the current state-of-the-art as well as future trends and needs. As such it also provides a rare opportunity for system developers and users to meet outside a contractual context, in order to share experiences with associated tools, techniques and practices.

One of SESP’s aims is to serve as an exchange forum for new ideas and to trigger and encourage plans for future work.

The technical domains of the SESP workshop can be broken down into four main themes:

• Modelling and Simulation
• Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE)
• System Information Management
• Standards
