Increased efficiency from multiple user access to a single simulation
Thursday September 24, 2015
The typical paradigm within process simulation software is for only one person to have access to a given simulation at any one time. That paradigm is inherently limiting in that typically you need several different people to work on the same simulation, sometimes in different areas, as part of the engineering design lifecycle. This creates all sorts of time delays and potential issues in making sure that the final simulation incorporates feedback and changes from various departments. It is clear that industry requires simulation software to be more collaborative than it is now.
Well, that paradigm is shifting right now. SimCentral from SimSci by Schneider Electric has collaboration capabilities built in. Multiple users can work on the same shared simulation simultaneously. So not only can people in the same office work on the same model, people spanning the globe can access and work on the same model at the same time or sequentially. SimCentral promotes collaboration with access to the same simulation on multiple applications and devices, and by multiple users.
