Thank you, Tirza, for launching such an exciting and forward-thinking initiative. It's inspiring to see ASCE embracing intelligent tools, to support our technical community and deepen access to shared knowledge.
I'd like to propose four names:
1- AURA :short for ASCE Unified Research Assistant. The name evokes clarity, guidance, and a halo of insight, beautifully reflecting ASCE's mission to illuminate technical pathways for civil engineers. It's elegant, globally resonant, and harmonizes with the institutional tone of ASCE's established institutes.
2- Other strong contenders I explored include AXIS (ASCE eXpert Intelligence System), which conveys precision and centrality;
3- NOVA (Navigational Organizational Virtual Assistant), which suggests innovation and forward momentum;
4- and CORE (Collaborative Organizational Research Engine), which symbolizes the foundational strength of ASCE's technical ecosystem.
Each name is crafted to reflect ASCE's research depth, collaborative spirit, and global legacy.
Looking forward to seeing how this assistant evolves to empower our engineering community.
Warm regards,
