DASSAULT/MSC.SOFTWARE REDEFINE PLM ANALYSIS/SIMULATION MARKET.Dassault Systemes Dassault Systemes (Dassault Systèmes S.A.) (Pronounced - Dasoh) (NASDAQ: DASTY; Euronext: 13065) is a leading company specializing in 3D and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) software. S.A and MSC (1) (MSC.Software Corporation, Santa Ana, CA, www.mscsoftware.com) Founded in 1963 by Richard H. MacNeal and Robert G. Schwendler, MSC is the world's largest provider of mechanical computer aided engineering (MCAE) strategies, simulation software and services. .Software have signed a strategic alliance where MSC.Software will develop its new generation of simulation solutions using DS' Version 5 Architecture. MSC.Software together with DS and DS's existing CAE (1) (Computer-Aided Engineering) Software that analyzes designs which have been created in the computer or that have been created elsewhere and entered into the computer. partners will deliver the largest and most advanced PLM (Product Life cycle Management) A comprehensive information system that coordinates all aspects of a product from initial concept to its eventual retirement. Sometimes called the "digital backbone" of a product, it includes the requirements phase, analysis and design integrated Analysis and Simulation portfolio available on the market. As part of this alliance MSC.Software will also act as a strategic distribution channel, for the joint Version 5 Analysis and Simulation portfolio with dedicated and specialized skills, complementing the existing IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) PLM channel for DS' products. In addition, DS and MSC.Software are committed to leverage the power of the Internet to establish and deliver pervasive and collaborative Version 5 simulation environments to the leading worldwide manufacturing companies and their suppliers. MSC.Software is the leader in simulation software Simulation software is based on the process of imitating a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas. It is, essentially, a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually running the program. and consulting. This alliance will enhance its leadership position and accelerate its capability to deliver innovative simulation solutions as an integral part of PLM. To develop its new generation simulation products, MSC.Software will immediately benefit from the unique competitive advantages that the Version 5 CAE infrastructure provides today for the development of advanced simulation solutions. Through Version 5's openness, MSC.Software will continue to deliver and support its multi-CAD strategy. DS is the leading PLM solutions provider for the creation and simulation of the entire product life cycle from initial concept to product in service. DS' PLM brands CATIA A family of 2D and 3D CAD programs from IBM. CATIA was one of the first CAD programs to provide 3D solid modeling. The program was developed by Dassault Systems, a French aerospace company. , ENOVIA and DELMIA DELMIA Digital Enterprise Lean Manufacturing Interactive Application offer integrated solutions based on the Version 5 component architecture that provides a scalable object-based middleware infrastructure offering both generic and CAE specific frameworks. This alliance is a step forward in establishing Version 5 as the de facto [Latin, In fact.] In fact, in deed, actually. This phrase is used to characterize an officer, a government, a past action, or a state of affairs that must be accepted for all practical purposes, but is illegal or illegitimate. industry standard for all PLM processes. Process centric customers will benefit from the largest and most tightly integrated PLM Analysis and Simulation portfolio developed by DS, MSC.Software, and DS's Software partners. They will be supported by dedicated, focused and highly skilled sales, marketing, consulting and support teams. "This strategic alliance demonstrates Dassault Systemes and MSC.Software's understanding and commitment to Analysis and Simulation centric industries" said Michel Laroche, Vice-President Engineering, Snecma Moteurs. "We at Snecma completely share their vision that integrated multi physics simulation of Digital Prototypes is critical to our business success." "It is increasingly important for all companies to predict product performance early and throughout the design, manufacturing, and service life cycle phases," said Frank Perna, Chairman and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of MSC.Software. "This strategic agreement completely brings together the design and analysis disciplines, fully integrated in the PLM processes, enabling companies to increase their profitability by creating better products faster and making critical decisions earlier in the design process. Partnering with Dassault Systemes, the leading PLM provider, and using Version 5, the leading software development platform, significantly increases our mutual ability to revolutionize the simulation market by delivering a new generation of simulation software." "MSC.Software's endorsement of the Version 5 infrastructure is a definitive step forward in delivering the best and widest Analysis and Simulation portfolio available for all industries" said Bernard Charles Bernard Charles is the CEO of Dassault Systemes.
