CNC Software, developer of Mastercam CAD/CAM software, has announced the winner of its 2013-2014 Innovator of the Future (IOF) competition: Ryan Jacquemin - Student at the Oliver Wolcott Technical High School, Torrington, CT Mastercam's IOF competition helps introduce students to real-world manufacturing by challenging them to put their own creative twist on a specific part to be judged by a special guest from the manufacturing industry. For the 2013-2014 competition, students designed and machined an aerospace mirror similar in design and function to mirrors that are used in industry-leading space-borne and technology projects, and were judged by Optimax, the company that makes the optics behind the latest breakthrough technologies in aerospace, defense, and consumer electronics. The winner receives a $1,000 check for school expenses, Mastercam software, and a trip to Florida to visit the Kennedy Space Center. Rick Plympton, CEO of Optimax says, "All of the candidates did a wonderful job with their parts

The development departments at Mitsubishi Electric and EPLAN are working closely together in order to realise the optimal integration of electrical engineering and PLC programming. The EPLAN Platform and GX Works2 – Mitsubishi Electric’s programming software for their PLCs of the MELSEC Series – are now linked via a new interface. This enables reductions in development costs of more than 50 per cent for joint customers. Here is one specific use scenario: an electrical engineer creates a wiring diagram and, with a click of the mouse, sends the information for the I/O addresses and function texts (as examples) to the PLC programmer, who is programming GX Works2 controls. This automatic data exchange prevents time-consuming and costly inquiries. This, in turn, leads to considerable reductions in development and commissioning times for plants and systems. As part of this platform, EPLAN Electric P8 combines the data for the electrical hardware planning and control

Bentley Systems and Trimble have committed to leveraging construction modeling for the benefit of capital, industrial, and infrastructure project delivery. Aspects of construction modeling include modeling of temporary works, intelligent positioning, “splitting and sequencing,” detailing for fabrication, workface planning, construction work packaging, and support for distributed construction – referencing and supplementing design modeling deliverables. Today, architects and engineers perform design modeling with BIM toolsets that support optioneering and analytical modeling, and enable owners to make better decisions for better-performing assets, including in respects that would be pertinent and valuable during operations and maintenance. However, some of the most advanced BIM deliverables have simply not been useful for constructors’ requirements. Accordingly, the constructors have been left to create their own discrete 3D models for the limited purposes of construction visualization. As a result, owners have been unable to expect their designers’ BIM work to even survive the construction process let alone provide visibility into the engineering and

Nemetschek AG has successfully concluded the acquisition of Bluebeam Software, Inc., headquartered in Pasadena/California, USA. In total 100 percent of Bluebeam shares have been transferred to Nemetschek. Bluebeam is a provider of PDF-based workflow solutions for digital work processes and collaboration in the AEC industry. The innovative and strongly growing company, with more than 650,000 users worldwide, already counts more than 74% of the top 50 US companies in the construction industry as its customers. Bluebeam optimally suits their solution portfolio and commitment to open standards. All solutions of the Nemetschek Group can be integrated into the Bluebeam workflow by means of simple PDF conversion. The platform technology “Bluebeam Revu” enables digital and paperless workflows and significantly improves collaboration between all those involved in the building project, which ultimately leads to an increase in efficiency in the building process. At the same time, the acquisition allows us to reinforce our international market presence

EPAM, a provider of product development and software engineering solutions, announced its acquisition of Great Fridays Ltd., a product and service design group. Headquartered in Manchester, UK, with studios in London, San Francisco and New York, Great Fridays focuses on bridging the gap between business and design. Through its design-focused thinking, Great Fridays has helped companies such as Sonos, Pearson, MasterCard and Vodafone create not only beautiful products and services but also smart new business practices that deliver lasting commercial value and business transformation. "In today's world, design and design thinking have become an imperative. Design influences decisions we make, experiences we have, and through that influences business outcomes," said Arkadiy Dobkin, EPAM CEO and President. "We are very excited to have Great Fridays join the EPAM team. Our clients eagerly welcomed the combination of digital skills and strong engineering which we created with our acquisition of Empathy Lab two years ago.

MathWorks announced that code generated from MATLAB and Simulink is now optimized for use across the ARM® Cortex®-A processor family. Embedded systems developers using ARM Cortex processors in the automotive, aerospace, signal processing and medical device industries can now automatically generate code, speeding execution time and reducing memory usage. This ability to generate optimized code helps small design teams extend Model-Based Design across applications and devices including motor control, power electronics, audio, and communications. Building on CMSIS library support for Cortex-R and Cortex-M cores, Embedded Coder now offers Ne10 DSP library support, which helps generate optimized DSP filter code for the full line of ARM Cortex-A processor-based devices. Simulink also offers built-in target support for ARM-based hardware devices including Altera SoC, BeagleBone Black, Xilinx Zynq, STMicroelectronics Discovery Board, and Freescale Freedom Board. Third-party integrations exist for other popular ARM-based devices including Texas Instruments Hercules and Analog Devices CMx40 hardware. Model-Based Design offers engineers three key benefits throughout the software and hardware

HP introduced its vision for the future of computing and 3D printing by unveiling its new Blended Reality ecosystem.
