Start with the news release
NI expands HIL simulation platform from
National Instruments, which we summarised at the time by saying "National Instruments (NI) has announced the expansion of its hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation platform, which includes numerous products to optimise embedded system validation. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Airchannel helps timber specialist save energy from
Airchannel: "Airchannel has installed a variable speed compressor for DG Heath (Timber Products) that will provide a 50 per cent energy cost saving per annum. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Dassault Systemes
- take a look at Dassault Systemes releases latest PLM 2.0 platform
which says: "Dassault Systemes (DS) unveiled the latest release of its PLM 2.0 platform at its recent European Customer Forum.".
Take a look also at the news release from Ricardo, Ricardo to help develop automatic transmission,
as well as Final chapter of lean manufacturing book released from Lattice Technology,
and CCE expands India-based manufacturing supply chain from CCE.
