We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Cambridge University",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Earth sciences join engineering database from
Knovel Corporation, which we summarised at the time by saying "Engineering-oriented search helps users to quickly pinpoint the data and background information they seek".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Software aids materials selection from
Granta Design: "CES Selector helps product designers and manufacturers to avoid cost, innovate, and meet environmental and other regulations".
In February 2007, we covered the news from Granta Design
concerning its CES EduPack 2007
- take a look at Software-based materials toolkit updated
which says: "EduPack is centered on the CES EduPack software and database, supported by textbooks, lectures, projects, and exercises".
Take a look also at the news release from Yorkshire Forward, Grant brings novel metals process to market,
as well as Major contract won with Autodesk Inventor from Micro Concepts,
and Unlocking the secrets of growth and innovation from Manufacturing Institute.
