Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced AI-powered Chat and Copilot assistants for its Advanced Design System (ADS), delivering breakthrough natural language capabilities that accelerate design workflows while maintaining enterprise-grade security. Electronic design teams face mounting challenges: complex multi-domain workflows, fragmented data management, and relentless pressure to accelerate time-to-market. Manual processes slow innovation, while talent shortages and security concerns add risk. Keysight’s secure AI-powered assistants tackle these issues head-on — ramping quickly for new users, automating repetitive tasks, and streamlining manual workflows — so engineers can focus on what matters most: delivering breakthrough designs faster and smarter. This update transforms EDA workflows, reducing learning curves while accelerating design cycles. The AI assistants leverage language models fine-tuned on Keysight's electronic design expertise. Each assistant can be configured individually. Control Design Flow with Keysight’s Dual AI Assistants The Learning Assistant (Chat) provides instant conversational answers to a broad range of Keysight ADS tool usage and application questions. The Tool Assistant (Copilot) actively

OUTSCALE, a Dassault Systèmes brand, reaches a new milestone in securing critical data by obtaining the SOC 2 Type 2 attestation. This international recognition demonstrates the effectiveness and reliability of security controls implemented over time to protect its customers’ data and intellectual property. This attestation complements an already well-established compliance framework, with Cloud services certified to ISO 27001, HDS, CISPE, TISAX and qualified SecNumCloud. SOC 2 Type 2: a globally recognised, long-term proof of trustThe SOC 2 Type 2 attestation, conducted in accordance with the standards of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), is based on requirements internationally adopted by organisations operating Cloud and digital services. Type 1, obtained in April 2025, assesses the design and implementation of controls at a specific point in time. Type 2 goes further by certifying that these controls operate effectively and continuously over an observation period. Recognised in procurement processes for large enterprises and

Propel Software launched DesignHub, a multi-CAD integration solution that connects over 15 mechanical and electrical design tools to Propel’s PLM (product lifecycle management) solution, boosting productivity from design to release. DesignHub is available immediately as part of Propel’s Winter 2026 release. The release also includes expanded capabilities from Propel One, Propel’s agentic AI solution powered by Salesforce Agentforce. DesignHub solves a persistent problem for manufacturers, getting accurate design data from computer aided design (CAD) systems to PLM. Design data often sits in shared drives with unclear naming conventions, leading to version conflicts, costly rework, and delayed handoffs. DesignHub drastically improves the connection between engineering teams and the rest of the enterprise, making design data a strategic asset accessible across procurement, product management, marketing, sales, and service. “Our research reveals multiple CAD applications and complexity hampers new product development, with nearly three-quarters of companies facing inefficiency and delays due to multi-CAD challenges. The

PTC announced the connection of its Onshape® Government computer-aided design (CAD) and product data management (PDM) platform with its Arena® product lifecycle management (PLM) and quality management system (QMS) solution for Amazon Web Services (AWS) GovCloud. The connection delivers a unified CAD, PDM, and PLM environment to U.S. government agencies, defense contractors, and other regulated industries that must meet strict compliance requirements. Regulated industries require a secure way to connect design and product data to meet strict standards and execute complex programs with confidence. With this connection, Onshape Government users can link design and PDM data directly with Arena PLM for AWS GovCloud, enabling a continuous workflow across engineering, quality, and supply chain operations in an ITAR- and EAR-compliant environment. “Onshape Government established a new standard as the first fully cloud-native CAD and PDM solution designed specifically for U.S. government compliance,” said David Katzman, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Onshape and

Eurostep released ShareAspace 1.9, a new version of its engineering data platform designed to give customers a more stable, flexible foundation for sharing and using product information. A key focus of this release is a new Integrated Product Support (IPS) offering, aimed at helping defence organisations contract for, consolidate and trust the product support information they need to keep assets available and support costs under control. What’s new in ShareAspace 1.9?ShareAspace 1.9 is a platform release that strengthens through-life support and multi-enterprise collaboration. It introduces new IPS capabilities for contracting and governing trusted product support information, alongside updates to Design to Manufacturing that improve supplier exchanges and handovers. ShareAspace Export Control also includes refinements that strengthen compliance workflows and governance. We built ShareAspace 1.9 for long term use. It runs on a modern long-term support framework, introducing a new web user interface that can evolve in parallel with the classic ShareAspace web user interface

Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA, 17 December 2025—The CIMdata-administered Aerospace & Defense PLM Action Group (AD PAG) has released a new, authoritative report, Digital Twin-Digital Thread Solution Evaluation Benchmark Report of Findings: General Availability Edition. Recognizing that the knowledge of what is currently possible with digital twin and digital thread (Dtw-Dth) was not widely understood, the AD PAG sponsored this extensive project. The findings reported are the culmination of a collaborative exploration of solution strategies, implementation approaches, current value delivery capabilities, and future visions of commercial Dtw-Dth providers. Domain experts from seven AD PAG member companies partnered with four industry organizations and engaged with seven leading solution providers to execute the benchmarks. The report concludes that the current practical value potential of Dtw-Dth investment is real and substantial. Key insights include: Verified Value Potential: Confirmation that substantial value is being delivered today, verified by the demonstration of the very powerful Dtw-Dth solutions currently in

Building on the bold vision to make virtual twins the foundation of healthcare shared at its recent Virtual Human Twin Experience Symposium, Dassault Systèmes will showcase artificial intelligence at the forefront of future advances in dementia and Alzheimer’s care in a first-of-its kind experience at CES 2026 in Las Vegas from Jan. 6-9. At booth LVCC, North Hall - 8705, “Step Inside Alzheimer’s” invites visitors on an immersive, interactive journey to discover how Dassault Systèmes’ 3D UNIV+RSES fuse AI with a patients’ virtual twin and real-time sensing to create a “healthcare operating system” for the future in degenerative neurobiology. AI becomes the trusted lever for virtualizing research, clinical trials, diagnostics and treatment - moving them out of brick-and-mortar settings to fuel a living, customized virtual twin that enables more predictive and personal care. Inside an illuminated, animated cube, visitors can navigate between a city, home, person and virtual brain from three perspectives -
