The leading provider of test and simulation solutions for the mobility industry and other sectors introduces CONTACT Software’s CIM Database Cloud as its PLM platform. It enables dSPACE to accelerate product development, support quality assurance, reduce costs for technical infrastructure, and ensure high IT security.  Wherever complex systems need to be developed and validated, solutions from dSPACE come into play. The company’s comprehensive portfolio enables automotive manufacturers and their suppliers to develop and test software and hardware components for new vehicles long before they hit the road. Beyond vehicle development, dSPACE is also a sought-after partner in the aerospace industry and industrial automation. Now, dSPACE relies on CIM Database Cloud from CONTACT Software to increase efficiency in product development.  Previously, dSPACE used a self-developed solution that no longer adequately supported the company’s strong international growth. Data was distributed across multiple IT systems, which lacked the scalability to map complex business processes. By implementing CIM

In addition, Infor’s solutions integrate seamlessly into Sanford’s

Informatica, a leader in enterprise AI-powered cloud data management, announced that SUBARU Corporation (SUBARU) has chosen to implement Informatica’s AI-powered Intelligent Data Management Cloud ™ (IDMC), to enable the automaker to drive a global-scale data integration project. SUBARU was faced with siloed data and utilization issues in 2019 with each department and operation handling data in isolated systems which resulted in disparate data. In 2020, SUBARU launched their global PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) project with an aim to consolidate data from business-critical processes, from vehicle development to production and after-sales maintenance, and develop a company-wide data integration platform to connect, track and share trusted data across their departments. The data integration platform supporting the global PLM project was completed in 2022 and went “live” in production that year, enabling lifetime data such as vehicle development to manufacturing, sales and maintenance, to customer IDs and other information to be seamlessly linked. “With the help of

Hewlett Packard Enterprise announced that Toyo Tire Corporation selected HPE to deliver its seventh generation high performance computing (HPC) system, which is three times more powerful than its predecessor, as a-service through HPE GreenLake cloud. The upgraded system and boosted performance accelerate time-to-market for next-generation tires by processing structural tire data quickly and with greater precision. The expanded computational power significantly reduces the time required for complex and parameter-rich large-scale design simulations that Toyo Tire utilizes to train its AI models. “Toyo Tire continues to demonstrate innovation in tire engineering and development using high performance computing,” said Hirokazu Mochizuki, senior vice president and managing director for HPE Japan. “We are pleased to collaborate with Toyo Tire and strengthen its digitized development with powerful HPE Cray performance delivered via HPE GreenLake cloud. The latest solution provides Toyo Tire an optimal level of performance, in a flexible environment, to support a new era of

CIMdata’s Peter Bilello published an article on engineering.com about how digital transformation of discrete manufacturing can include PLM. Peter says, “It might be time to reframe digital transformation discussions and implementations, with a dramatic shift in the focus of digital transformation away from inputs (“new and improved” and “faster, better, cheaper”) into measurable outcomes that fit smoothly into an enterprise’s business plans.” Read the full article on engineering.com here: https://www.engineering.com/where-and-how-plm-fits-into-a-digital-transformation-initiative/ To view the original press release, please click here.

Cadence Design Systems, Inc. announced the launch of Fem.AI—an initiative to propel women and the industry towards a more equitable tech sector, with an emphasis on opportunities in AI. The Cadence Giving Foundation has committed $20 million towards this initiative, including philanthropic and product donations over the next decade to organizations that align with Fem.AI’s mission. By catalyzing the industry to invest in nonprofits, university students and programs, champion women-led ventures, drive product innovation and leverage industry influence, Fem.AI aims to close the gender gap in this critical space. Addressing Key Challenges for Women in AI Despite years of effort, the tech industry is lagging on critical measures of gender balance. Initial research by Cadence has identified three “leakage points” in the tech/AI ecosystem where women are losing traction: Completing Higher Education: In 2021, approximately 20% of computer science graduates were female , while 45% of women who start college as STEM majors leave to pursue another degree .
