High-fidelity simulations of dynamic embedded systems can be invaluable. This follow-up to “Modeling Dynamic Systems” (August 2000) presents some techniques and algorithms you might find useful. In a ...

Consumer electronics – tablets, smartphones and e-readers – is now leading the industry in growth. For system manufacturers and integrated circuit (IC) suppliers, the challenge involves keeping pace ...

As embedded systems hardware is becoming more powerful, the demand for high quality, sophisticated and compelling applications is increasing. In addition to that, due to fierce competition in the ...

The semiconductor industry has greatly simplified analysis by consolidating around a small number of models and abstractions, but that capability is breaking down both at the implementation level and ...

Many designs involve multiple engineering domains. For example, hybrid vehicles balance engine performance with emissions limits; UAVs balance thermal limitations on their batteries with ...

How in-house-developed and third-party general-purpose simulation tools are limited to a few expert users and aren’t easily shareable. How multiphysics simulation of subsystems can result in an ...

Visual Components has launched Visual Components 5.0, a major update to its 3D manufacturing simulation and robot offline programming software platform. The new version introduces faster simulation ...

A new framework for the simulation of oil and gas production systems integrates reservoir, flow assurance, and economic discipline models in addition to optimizing subsea layout and FPU placement. The ...

Pinpointing the minimum and maximum transient noise bandwidth for a transient noise simulation is a non-trivial task. But ...
