Dassault Systemes Announces the Release of SIMULIA SLM for Simulation Lifecycle Management.New Software Secures Valuable Intellectual Property Through Management of Simulation Data, Processes, and Applications PARIS Paris, in Greek mythology Paris or Alexander, in Greek mythology, son of Priam and Hecuba and brother of Hector. Because it was prophesied that he would cause the destruction of Troy, Paris was abandoned on Mt. , France & PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Dassault Syst[c]mes (DS) (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :DASTY) (Paris:DSY DSY Drum Storage Yard ), a world leader in 3D and Product Lifecycle Product lifecycle or product life cycle is the course of a product's sales and profits over time. The five stages of each product lifecycle are product development, introduction, growth, maturity and decline. Management (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 ) solutions, today announced the early availability of SIMULIA SLM See service level management system and spatial light modulator. , a new product suite from its SIMULIA brand that will have a positive impact on the way that organizations perform and manage their simulation processes. The use of simulation has become an increasingly vital process in developing innovative products quickly. SIMULIA SLM accelerates the product development lifecycle by providing timely access to the right information through secure storage, search, and retrieval functionality that is specific to simulation processes and data. SIMULIA SLM maximizes the value of company-generated intellectual property (IP) through the capture, re-use, and deployment of simulation best practices. It also provides tools for control and sharing of simulation data for collaborative product development Collaborative Product Development (Collaborative Product Design) (CPD) is a business strategy, work process and collection of software applications that facilitates different organizations to work together on the development of a product. . "The release of SIMULIA SLM marks a major milestone for SIMULIA as we expand our product portfolio beyond the Abaqus product line," said Mark Goldstein, 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. , SIMULIA. "By leveraging PLM technology from ENOVIA and simulation expertise from SIMULIA, we have been able to rapidly develop what we believe is an industry-leading solution. SIMULIA SLM will enable our customers to secure their simulation intellectual property and transform it into a valuable and controlled corporate asset." Shorter product lifecycles, higher costs, stricter regulations, and the desire to benefit from a greater number of simulations make it clear that companies need an economical and effective solution to manage, share, and secure their simulation assets. To ensure affordable and efficient deployment, SIMULIA SLM provides significant capabilities directly "out of the box" so that users can gain tangible benefits immediately. The new release delivers capabilities to manage all data associated with simulations, integrate and control the execution of simulation applications, carry out operations such as query and version control, administer access privileges, and perform and review simulations in a distributed, collaborative environment. SIMULIA SLM also works with simulation authoring applications developed by SIMULIA, Dassault Syst[c]mes, third parties, and customers via a Connectors Framework. This enables a diverse set of simulation solutions to be deployed and executed from within the SIMULIA SLM environment. Connectors are currently available for Abaqus Unified FEA (Finite Element Analysis) A mathematical technique for analyzing stress, which breaks down a physical structure into substructures called "finite elements." The finite elements and their interrelationships are converted into equation form and solved mathematically. , 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. , and a variety of third-party applications such as Nastran, HyperMesh, AcuSolve, and STAR-CD. Customers can also easily configure Connectors to their specific applications. This early availability release of SIMULIA SLM is being deployed at select customer sites during the early part of 2008 and will be followed by a generally available release in mid-2008. A Simulation Lifecycle Management White Paper and Webinar are available on the SIMULIA website. For more information, visit: http://www.simulia.com/products/slm.html. About SIMULIA SIMULIA is the Dassault Syst[c]mes brand that delivers a scalable portfolio of Realistic Simulation solutions including the Abaqus product suite for Unified Finite Element Analysis Finite element analysis (FEA) is a computer simulation technique used in engineering analysis. It uses a numerical technique called the finite element method (FEM). There are many finite element software packages, both free and proprietary. , multiphysics solutions for insight into challenging engineering problems, and lifecycle management solutions for managing simulation data, processes, and intellectual property. By building on established technology, respected quality, and superior customer service, SIMULIA makes realistic simulation an integral business practice that improves product performance, reduces physical prototypes, and drives innovation.
