The announcement marks a major milestone in the continued expansion and enhancement of Exiger’s offerings across the U.S. Federal Government. “The expanded government-wide FedRAMP Authorization simplifies and streamlines the experience for our government and Defense Industrial Base (DIB) customers that rely on Exiger’s AI solutions and the 1Exiger platform to secure their critical supply chains,” said Exiger President Carrie Wibben. “It eliminates the need to swivel chair between systems and enables fully integrated workflows and decisioning within Exiger’s secure environment, allowing customers to aggregate, maintain and utilize Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) in conjunction with Exiger’s proprietary data and intelligence.” “The expanded government-wide FedRAMP Authorization simplifies and streamlines the experience for our government and Defense Industrial Base (DIB) customers that rely on Exiger’s AI solutions and the

Hexagon, the global leader in digital reality solutions, announced today the global release of its AI-powered 3D blast movement solution, Hexagon Blast Movement Intelligence (BMI). In partnership with Augment Technologies and through integration of an AI-driven blast movement engine, Hexagon BMI has been proven in real-world mining conditions. Boosting blasting efficiency and providing high visibility into ore dilution for informed ore and waste delineation post-blast, it safely produces an accurate block model of the muckpile and ultimately maximises yield.  The ability to generate a Muckpile Block Model™—a post-blast representation of the grade control block model—is a distinguishing feature of BMI. Paired with Hexagon Blast Movement Monitors, the AI can be validated and improved as the engine helps to safely and rapidly produce the Muckpile Block Model™. Importantly, the model is produced without personnel having to walk on the muckpile to place or retrieve the monitors. What also makes BMI unique is its integration

Golden Software has added significant time-saving features to the latest version of its Surfer mapping and 3D visualization software. Users can now choose from more than 20 frame templates to quickly create their maps and project files. They can also easily download georeferenced aerial and satellite images from new online services with reliable, global coverage to add context to their maps. “Our primary goal with the latest Surfer was to save users time in making high-quality visualizations,” said Surfer Product Manager, Kari Dickenson. “The new templates and direct access to these new online image servers means that Surfer users create their final 3D visualizations faster and with fewer clicks.” Over 100,000 people have used Surfer worldwide, many are involved in environmental consulting, water resources, engineering, mining, oil & gas exploration, and geospatial projects. The software has been relied upon for more than 40 years by users in numerous disciplines to quickly transform

IBM announced it has expanded its consulting services and solutions to help clients derive greater value from Oracle's cloud applications and technology and extend generative AI with an open, orchestrated approach. The average cost of compute spend is expected to increase by 89% between 2023 and 2025, according to new research from the IBM Institute for Business Value. In addition, 42% of executives report concern that inadequate expertise could preclude progress with generative AI. To help clients address these growing challenges, IBM Consulting is launching an expanded network of consultants to support Oracle clients, including thousands of consultants worldwide who are certified across core Oracle technologies – such as OCI Generative AI, OCI AI Services, and OCI Data Science – as well as deeply skilled in the IBM watsonx AI and data platform. The consultants will be committed to helping clients extend high value generative AI use cases coupled with traditional AI and automation solutions, aimed to maximize their return-on-investment and

MathWorks unveiled Release 2024b (R2024b) of the MATLAB® and Simulink® product families today. R2024b introduces several major updates that streamline the workflows of engineers and researchers working on wireless communications systems, control systems, and digital signal processing applications. In addition to MathWorks platform product improvements, R2024b includes major updates to popular MATLAB and Simulink tools, including: Originally built to provide functions for modeling, simulation, and verification of New Radio (NR) and 5G-Advanced systems, 5G Toolbox™ now enables the exploration of 6G waveform generation and signal quality assessments of 5G waveforms. DSP HDL Toolbox™ provides hardware-ready Simulink blocks and subsystems for developing signal processing applications. The toolbox now includes a new interactive DSP HDL IP Designer app for configuring DSP algorithms and generating HDL code and verification components. Simulink Control Design™ is used to design and analyze control systems modeled in Simulink and now offers the ability to design and implement nonlinear and data-driven control techniques, such as sliding mode and iterative learning control. System Composer™ enables

MathWorks, the leading developer of mathematical computing software, today announced the availability of a hardware support package for the Qualcomm® Hexagon™ Neural Processing Unit (NPU), the technology embedded within the Snapdragon® family of processors. The MathWorks hardware support package automates code generation from MATLAB® and Simulink® models optimized explicitly for Qualcomm Technologies’ Hexagon NPU architecture to improve data accuracy and standards compliance while improving developer workflow productivity. Using MathWorks software and Model-Based Design empowers engineers to deploy production-quality C code for embedded applications without in-depth knowledge of the NPU.  "Qualcomm Technologies’ mission is to empower engineers to create innovative products and applications that leverage the full potential of Snapdragon processors," said Vinesh Sukumar, Sr. Director of Product Management, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “As the demand for high-performance NPU applications continues to grow, the collaboration between MathWorks and Qualcomm Technologies enables developers to efficiently develop embedded applications optimized for the Hexagon NPU.” The MathWorks hardware support package for the Hexagon NPU addresses several

Altium, a global leader in electronics design systems, announced that it has launched the Requirements & Systems Portal Application into the Altium 365 cloud platform for electronics design collaboration. The Requirements & Systems Portal helps to ensure visibility and awareness of functional requirements from concept to manufacturing, improving upon cost, quality, and risk in the product development process.  The launch follows Altium’s acquisition of Valispace earlier this year. Valispace is a game-changing Systems and Requirements Engineering tool that joins system design and requirements engineering with an AI-assisted and data-driven approach. The electronics design process is disconnected and plagued by rework because the work of PCB design engineers is often disconnected from system requirements. The Requirements & Systems Portal ensures that electrical teams can write, manage, and verify their requirements directly in the Altium 365 ecosystem, allowing team members from different disciplines to view requirements in the context of their designs. When electrical engineers, electrical

Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA, 12 September 2024—The Aerospace & Defense PLM Action Group (AD PAG) announces the publication of a new AD PAG Insight that presents the members’ position on digital engineering. With the rise of digital twins, digital thread, and connected engineering systems, Product Lifecycle Management’s (PLM) fundamental capabilities are in greater demand. Interest is growing in PLM’s extended functions beyond product data management (PDM) and lifecycle state design. As Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), the Internet of Things (IoT), and new technologies emerge, managing product data relationships becomes increasingly vital. The aerospace and defense industry is starting to refer to these expanded capabilities as digital engineering. Could this be the future of PLM? In late 2023, executives from companies making up the Aerospace & Defense PLM Action Group membership chartered a team of thought leaders from member companies to develop a cohesive perspective on the vital connection between digital engineering and
