Ricardo Software today announces a key partnership that will deliver immediate benefits to users of its IGNITE complete vehicle system simulation product, as well as enabling significant future developments. In the upcoming 2016 product release, planned for May, IGNITE users will have instant access to Modelon’s advanced OPTIMICA Compiler Toolkit, a Modelica and Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) based computational platform for system design. Integrating IGNITE and OPTIMICA offers clear advantages for system simulation users, not least with a three-fold increase in the speed of compilation and simulation, providing very significant time-savings.  Moreover, it provides expanded compatibility with proprietary and open source Modelica libraries (covering two-phase fluid, thermal, hydraulics, and more), and comprehensive support of the FMI, further enabling execution of multi-domain and multi-scale studies in IGNITE. The result of this partnership will bring together the best of IGNITE’s comprehensive ground vehicle performance and fuel economy simulation capability with Modelon’s leadership in Modelica

NEC Corporation today announced the establishment of the "Blockchain Workshop" as part of the Incubation & Innovation Initiative (III), a cross-industrial consortium that includes NEC, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and The Japan Research Institute, Limited. NEC has been a member of III since its establishment in February 2016. The Blockchain Workshop studies the properties of Blockchain technology in order to maximize its utilization. Blockchain technology involves the use of encryption technology that is attracting attention due to its application in areas that include financial transactions and stock exchanges. Blockchain technology dispersion manages and synchronizes account book information such as transaction history, thereby helping to ensure that account books cannot be falsified. By the end of the first half of the 2016 fiscal year, the use of Blockchain technology is expected to be verified in an evaluation environment. "Blockchain technology may be applicable to a wide range of industries," said Fumiaki Matsubara, senior

ANSYS has licensed its engineering simulation software tools to ARM, a leading semiconductor intellectual property (IP) company for power efficiency, performance and reliability. The agreement will aid the ARM ecosystem and ARM® processor technology serving multiple markets including mobile computing, networking infrastructure, transportation and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Modern electronic products require high performance and reliability as well as minimal power. This is accomplished by combining multiple sub-systems of an electronic product into one or more integrated circuits (IC) called a system on a chip (SoC). Minimizing power consumption and energy efficiency are critical design requirements for the Internet of Things (IoT) applications. ANSYS simulation technology will support ARM in its continued development of cutting edge semiconductor IP and the ARM ecosystem partners design reliable and robust semiconductor chips. ANSYS® Redhawk™, ANSYS® Totem™ and ANSYS®PowerArtist™ simulation solutions will help with electrostatic discharge, electromigration, power modeling, analyzing and validating foundation IP building blocks, as
