The Brush Group, the largest independent manufacturer of turbogenerators in the world, is boosting performance of its generators for gas, steam and hydro-turbine drive applications by leveraging ANSYS  multiphysics engineering simulation solutions. The use of ANSYS® solutions is also leading to time and cost savings. The Brush Group's  turbogenerator, boosting generator performance with ANSYS simulation technology. The Brush Group chose ANSYS simulation to reduce the six-month lead time for new design generator manufacturing and to reduce the extensive costs and complexity of design modifications. "The smallest units weigh at least 40 tons, take up to six months to manufacture and contain many small design change opportunities, some with unmeasurable aspects. So it is simply impossible to take each new design option to the point of physical prototyping," said Sarah Allen, generator development manager, Brush Turbogenerators. "Simulation software, especially integrated, multiphysics simulation, is vital to reduce the variables that these design changes create in

Wipro is building an army of Unicorns that can bounce between code and design as it moves into the new world of artificial intelligence, analytics and robotics.  India's third-largest IT services company is training 20,000 employees to become what it calls Unicorns — people who have a breadth of technology knowledge to define the big picture — as the battle for highly-skilled digital workforce is getting fierce.  "You need to be able to handle multiple technologies and handle them as one person. We call them the Unicorn, a person who can handle anything from design to deployment. That's the skill-set you need. We have quite a few unicorns, but we need 15,000-20,000 of them to make an impact. That's what we are after," Wipro CEO TK Kurien said.  Wipro is accelerating hunt for unicorns as it aggressively moves towards the new digital technology imperatives — automation, artificial intelligence and analytics — altering the

Nuage Networks, the Alcatel-Lucent venture and Arista Networks Inc. announce a key collaboration for customers to maximize the benefits of open networking as they expand their cloud infrastructure to address growing IT application demands. With their respective offerings, Nuage Networks and Arista Networks have enabled customers to build programmable underlays and highly automated SDN overlay infrastructure using industry standard protocols like VxLAN and OVSDB. This collaboration enables a common framework for network automation that integrates virtualized and bare metal assets in the datacenter. The two companies will offer proven integrated solutions, available immediately. Customers using OpenStack or any other Cloud Management Systems can readily leverage the integrated solution over a varied ecosystem of hypervisors. “The integration of Arista’s VxLAN programmable platforms with Nuage Virtualized Services Platform (VSP) enables scalable and automated software defined cloud networks. We are pleased to collaborate with a leading SDN innovator like Nuage Networks to deliver seamless workload

Dassault Systèmes today announced that it is co-leading the second phase of the French government’s strategic push for industrial modernization in France.  The “Industry of the Future” initiative, announced by the French government on May 18, 2015, involves a convergence of factories, connected objects, augmented reality, robotics, big data, cyber security and other technologies that parallel the company’s 30 years of global technological innovation in 3D design, simulation and manufacturing.  Dassault Systèmes is an active partner of the “Industry of the Future” alliance, a group of technology companies, professional associations and academic partners whose mission is to promote the French government’s program to digitally transform industry in France. Bernard Charlès, President & CEO of Dassault Systèmes, is co-president of the alliance.

In my presentation at the recent CIMdata NA Market & Industry Forum, I talked about why PLM has to extend to strategy and Front End Innovation (FEI) to become a platform for innovation. In this blog, I would like to talk about a key aspect of FEI: Ideation and Idea Management. When we experience an innovative product or service we love, often we can see the simple “Idea” behind it. This simple idea, however, is not obvious to many of us without the actual experience. These two elements, “simple but non-obvious” constitute the very definition of a “BIG” idea. At the creation stage, such an idea should address a real need and also be actionable, i.e., it should not need the next breakthrough in science to make it happen. Do you ever wonder how these ideas come about in the first place? Many believe and attribute BIG ideas to Eureka moments of “geniuses.”
