Digital Thread - Components Coursera

Overview

Main concepts of this Digital Thread - Components course offered by Coursera in partnership with SUNY Buffalo will be delivered through lectures, readings, discussions and various videos. 

You will have a working understanding of the digital thread – the stream that starts at product concept and continues to accumulate information and data throughout the product’s life cycle – and identify opportunities to leverage it.
