Simulation software specialist, ANSYS, Inc., has released a new version of its Simplorer software, which is part of the Ansoft family of electronic design automation (EDA) products. Simplorer 8.0 is ...

While physical prototypes will not soon disappear, they’re certainly becoming a less prevalent part of the design cycle. Reduced costs and the rapid speed-to-market are the driving advantages. As for ...

Most everyone would agree how important FPGA prototyping is to test and validate an IP, sub-system, or a complete SoC design. Before the design is taped-out it can be validated at speeds near real ...

The Integrated Hybrid Prototyping SOC design tool tightly couples virtual prototyping functions and HAPS-60 series FPGA-based prototyping. The user can partition SoC design blocks between virtual and ...

Virtual prototypes, often used as a niche tool in the past, are becoming essential for developing complex systems. In fact, systems companies are finding they no longer can function without them. In ...

Audi engineers model the front end of a new car as part of the suspension, then run it through simulated test driving to gather load data. At Audi, designers combined testing and simulation to improve ...

Though the term mechatronics was coined back in 1969, it is still tough to find easy-to-use electromechanical design tools that enable design optimization across engineering disciplines. Few machine ...

By 2024, engineering simulation has evolved into a cornerstone of industrial innovation, underpinning efforts to address ...

Bolstered by fast processing speeds and cheap memory, simulation has become far more accessible than in the past. Thus, the development tool has transformed product development. Simulation has ...

The transportation community has long used two distinct simulator types without any formal integration between them. First, are microscopic Traffic Simulation (S) models, which simulate the movement ...
