Aras® today announced the availability of the Aras Manufacturing Process Planning (MPP) application for a new platform-based approach to managing the complex business processes that extend from product development through manufacturing. New capabilities bring together the Manufacturing Process Plan, Work Instructions and MBOM (Manufacturing Bill of Materials) making them interdependent and automatically synchronized as changes occur. This innovation enables direct EBOM (Engineering BOM) to MBOM translation bridging the gap enterprises have and creating the process foundation necessary for Industry 4.0 and Industrial Internet initiatives. EBOM / MBOM Breakthrough  Using Aras MPP, global product teams are able to concurrently define manufacturing processes, work instructions and MBOMs while avoiding the EBOM/MBOM conflicts, especially in products that combine complicated mechanical designs with electronics, software and firmware. Process plans include operations, equipment and tooling illustrated with models, drawings, pictures, graphics, videos and text. Automatic EBOM/MBOM reconciliation results in traceability between the as-designed and as-planned

Altair's software suite HyperWorks has released a number of new features that improve workflows and provide a complete framework of model building and stress analysis solutions for Aerospace.  The new tools increase efficiency for aerospace engineers in their daily tasks, including concept design, global and detailed finite element model build, post-processing and certification report generation. "This release will allow aerospace stress analysts to do their tasks in a much more efficient manner.  We really focused on understanding the desired workflows and creating an environment to easily move between CAD models, CAE models and results, and external tools such as Microsoft Excel," said Dr. Robert Yancey, Altair Vice President of Aerospace. "We look forward to working with our Aerospace customers to help them implement their workflows in the streamlined HyperWorks environment." More specifically, HyperMesh 14.0 accommodates the workflow of building concept models to global loads models and then to detailed FE models

Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited and Mie Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited today announced that they have reached an agreement with US-based Nantero, Inc. to license that company's technology for NRAM, non-volatile RAM using carbon nanotubes, and to conduct joint development towards releasing a product based on 55-nm process technology. Three companies are aiming to develop a product using NRAM non-volatile RAM that achieves several 1000 times faster rewrites and many thousands of times more rewrite cycles than embedded flash memory, making it potentially capable of replacing DRAM with non-volatile memory. Fujitsu Semiconductor plans to develop an NRAM-embedded custom LSI product by the end of 2018, with the goal of expanding the product line-up into stand-alone NRAM product after that. Mie Fujitsu Semiconductor, which is a pure-play foundry, plans to offer NRAM-based technology to its foundry customers. “Non-volatile memory using Nantero's carbon-nanotube technology is a marked advance beyond conventional technology. Fujitsu Semiconductor

SUNY Polytechnic Institute and AIM Photonics joined PhoeniX Software today to announce the company’s membership in AIM Photonics. PhoeniX Software is the premier vendor of photonic design automation (PDA) software used to synthesize integrated photonic circuits. The company is unique in the photonics industry as it enables photonic designers to work in a high-level technology-agnostic view and then synthesize the layout of their photonic integrated circuits (PICs) to different target fabrication processes. This capability is strategic to the AIM initiative as it enables photonic designers to quickly prototype their designs by targeting any one of AIM’s photonic fabrication processes for layout and assembly in an AIM multi-project wafer (MPW) run. “AIM Photonics is building a membership that includes some of the country’s most innovative technology companies that each provide critical elements to the success of the institute,” said Robert Duffy, Chairman of the AIM Photonics Leadership Council. “I’d like to
