CIMData White Paper: Using the Cloud for Simulation and Analysis: A New Approach

One of the key factors in delivering right-to-market products in the shortest possible time is improving how companies analyze, simulate, and test new designs and create physical products to validate that the design (i.e., the virtual product) meets the functional requirements and all applicable standards. To address these issues, engineering Simulation and Analysis (S&A) tools have increasingly become an indispensable component of the product development process. This white paper explores how S&A are being incorporated in an environment where designers and engineers can perform S&A as part of their normal tasks, and how cloud computing is providing the computing power to improve S&A tools.
