Dassault Systemes to Leverage Lattice Technology's Expertise to Create a Converging Open 3D Standard Based on XML XML
 in full Extensible Markup Language.

Markup language developed to be a simplified and more structural version of SGML. It incorporates features of HTML (e.g., hypertext linking), but is designed to overcome some of HTML's limitations.
 

Dassault Systemes (NASDAQ:DASTY; Euronext Paris: #13065, DSY.PA) and Lattice Technology today announced a strategic, long-term partnership whereby Dassault Systemes will leverage Lattice Technology's XVL XVL Extensible Virtual Language  solutions and expertise to create a universal 3D XML (Extensible Markup Language See XML.

(language, text) Extensible Markup Language - (XML) An initiative from the W3C defining an "extremely simple" dialect of SGML suitable for use on the World-Wide Web.

) open format for Product Lifecycle 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 ).

Under the terms of the agreement, Lattice Technology becomes a CAA Caa

 V5 SCP (1) (Service Control Point) A node in an SS7 telephone network that provides an interface to databases, which may reside within the SCP computer or in other computers.  Gold (Software Community Program) partner. It will develop and sell a suite of next-generation technical publication applications based upon Dassault Systemes' CAA V5 (Component Application Architecture Version 5) enhanced with the new open format.

Using Lattice Technology's applications, users will be able to generate 3D manuals, parts lists, marketing brochures, assembly instructions, and parts databases. The solutions will provide functions to create 3D interactive Web pages or office documents enabling users to combine 3D data, 2D images, structured data, text and graphics together in a single lightweight document. These applications will work either connected with SMARTEAM or ENOVIA databases or in local mode.

Developed in conjunction with industry, 3D XML for PLM will enable users to create and share live 3D V5 data quickly and easily in a lightweight XML-based format. Lattice Technology's advanced XVL solutions for compressing highly complex data accurately and Dassault Systemes' unique mathematical strengths and extensive suite of collaborative solutions will provide a format for the exchange of live 3D information.

Dassault Systemes will use the 3D XML format in its entire line of products - 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. , DELMIA DELMIA Digital Enterprise Lean Manufacturing Interactive Application , ENOVIA, SMARTEAM, SolidWorks and Spatial. CAA V5 and SolidWorks software partners will also have the opportunity to leverage this technology breakthrough. Dassault Systemes will introduce the first release of this collaborative, open 3D standard for PLM to its customers based on Version 5, Release 14 (V5R14) of its PLM solutions with further expansion in subsequent releases of all Dassault Systemes group products.

"Dassault Systemes is teaming up with Lattice Technology to create a powerful standard for the exchange of 3D data," said Yoshikazu Amano, Managing Officer, Toyota Motor Corporation. "We are strong supporter of this V5 evolution because it facilitates collaboration with our suppliers, partners and customers."

"Lightweight visualization is critical in many PLM activities, and especially in technical publishing processes," said Hiroshi Toriya, 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. , Lattice Technology. "Our experience in this domain together with Dassault Systemes breakthrough V5 infrastructure will enable us to deliver the right solution to our customers."

"Our partnership with Lattice Technology demonstrates our commitment to innovation, teamwork and technology excellence," said Dominique Florack, executive vice president, Strategy, R&D, Dassault Systemes. "3D XML for PLM will enable users to rapidly share complex 3D data, creating a global, open, collaborative 3D environment."

About the CAA V5 Software Community Program

CAA V5 (Component Application Architecture) is Dassault Systemes' open middleware and development environment for PLM. The CAA V5 Software Community Program is dedicated to ISV (Independent Software Vendor) A person or company that develops software. It implies an organization that specializes in software only and is not part of a computer systems or hardware manufacturer.  (Independent Software Vendors) willing to develop, sell and support CAA V5-based applications, fully integrated with CATIA, ENOVIA and DELMIA V5. This collaboration results in the expansion of Dassault Systemes' PLM solutions to cover the entire product lifecycle range, thus enabling mutual customers to take advantage of a larger set of products in response to their specific industrial needs. By delivering best-in-class complementary V5 applications, CAA V5 Gold Software Partners further promote Dassault Systemes' objective of supporting and continuously improving customer processes. Gold Partners also benefit from a unique and privileged access to Dassault Systemes' R&D laboratory and advanced technical and marketing support. Spatial Corp. is the primary channel for marketing, sales and support/services for CAA V5.
