The next AMD Fusion12 Developer Summit is approaching fast: June 11-14, 2012 in Bellevue, Washington. Over the past months, heterogeneous computing and the OpenCLTM platform have been gaining tremendous momentum. That’s why we’re so excited about this year’s Summit. 

We’re raising the bar with more content, great speakers, and even greater industry and CAD/CAM CAE participation. You’ll learn how to better leverage heterogeneous computing to advance your projects, see the latest advancements in OpenCLTM, and C++ AMP, and get insights into AMD’s corporate roadmap that enable your company to better recognize and capitalize on industry trends. 

I’ve attached a great synopsis of the event: “Top 10 Reasons to Attend AFDS.” One of the tracks will be reflecting workstation graphics and computer in the CAD and CAE space. Please download the PDF and share it with your management team and coworkers. 

Please feel free to comment below, I’ll follow up with you to answer any questions you may have.

Today is a special day for our friends from TraceParts. It is time to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their 3D content portal TracePartsOnline.net! From 2001, when the portal was launched and the Internet not as massively used as today, to 2012, a lot has been done to facilitate the indexation and availability of millions of 3D parts.

A few impressive figures to illustrate the outstanding growth and adoption of TracePartsOnline.net by design engineers:
- 26 500 000 CAD models downloads in 2011;
- 2 500 000 absolute visitors in 2011;
- 100 000 000+ models available from 100+ providers
- 1 200 000 registered users.

As you can see, these figures are huge and pretty impressive. What TraceParts has built during the last decade is amazing. The CATIA users community can source various types of 3D models for free as soon as they have registered! This includes, for instance: fasteners, flexible drives and transmissions, support and locating elements, linear motion systems, reducers, elbows, pneumatic and hydraulic fittings, cylinders and accessories, mold & die components, ... including thousands of technical data sheets.

Boost your design productivity by not redrawing the catalogs already available inside TracePartsOnline.net and concentrate on adding value to your company’s products!

So... Joyeux anniversaire TracePartsOnline.net ! (If you want to wish them an happy birthday, don't hesitate to join their Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn communities ;-)).

As you may have understood, we really believe in the benefits of social networks. Because Facebook, Twitter or YouTube are not all about fun but also business, we've been there for a while now. These channels offer a unique opportunity for us and our partners to show what we do and demonstrate the value brought by our respective solutions. Thanks to social networks, we have never been so close to our customers, offering the possibility to source their inputs and share our knowledge.

As of today, more than the half of the PLM MarketPlace Partners are present on YouTube, Facebook, you name it... Below you will find a list of their respective pages. We tried to make it as comprehensive as possible but we may have missed something, so don't hesitate to add your inputs in the comments!

ATI  

CD-adapco   

Cenit 

Coastal Logic 

Creaform   

DCS 

DPS  

Elsys

ESI-Group  

Forcefive

Geometric Ltd   

Golaem   

LMS

Noomeo 

Optis 

Samtech 

Theorem Solutions  

Transcat  

TraceParts  

Today, corporate websites are not the unique source of information anymore. This is something we really have to bear in mind. Social networks are a huge source of information, knowledge and experience sharing. There is a lot of value in them. And, most important, we, the users, are at the centre of it. 

Are you active on our partners' social networks? Tell us what are the benefits to get from it! On the opposite, maybe you are part of the people who do not see the benefits of it, we'd be happy to know why!

This post aims at being the "official" page listing our Partners' social networks so bookmark it and visit it regularly since we really believe the list will get longer and longer over the time!

For the fifth year, our partner TraceParts is not going to ask you to draw a sheep like the Little Prince. No, what they're gonna ask you is to draw... a Christmas tree!

But wait, we're not talking about a traditional Xmas tree. We're talking about a 3D one of course! No matter what your tree will look like, it has to be:
- in 3D;
- made with as many parts available on www.tracepartsonline.net as possible and
- less than 1MB if possible.

Then, TraceParts has got some nice prizes to be put under the real Christmas trees of the three winners:
- one Apple iPod touch (4th Generation) MP3 Player for the first place,
- one Amazon Kindle Keyboard Ebook Reader for the second place and 
- one Hama New Basic Digital Photo Frame for the third.

Easy, isn't it? We have no doubt our community of 3D professionals will be able to design the best 3D Christmas tree ever!

So, ready? Grab your mouse, browse TraceParts' catalog and unleash your imagination!

We're back in Dassault Systèmes HQ after two very great days at ECF 2011. It was the opportunity for us to meet our partners and see some live demos of their solutions. I must confess that year after year, they push the limits of innovation. Each of them came with brand new products or new features. Ready for the tour?

We first met Angela and René from OPTIS. OPTIS is a world leader in optics simulation. They were presenting their new solution THEIA RT, the world's first truly physics-based real time rendering. On the SPEOS side, there is a new feature: Digital Vision & Surveillance. This allows to enhance camera monitoring before manufacturing the good. For instance, based on the source of light, plane manufacturers can now place a camera at the right place in the cargo hold. Pilots will then have a better vision of the situation in case of fire.

David of IGE+XAO introduced the latest features of See Electrical, the company's electrical harness design solution. See Electrical v4 is now multi-user in addition to be collaborative. IGE+XAO is becoming more and more present in the rail industry (they will be present at the BCN Rail tradeshow next week in Barcelona, Spain). Last but not least, they won some significant deals recently, including ISS Reshetnev in Russia (aerospace), Mühlenberg Interior in Germany (aerospace), Agusta Westland (flight simulation) in Italy or Rolls Royce Marine in Canada.

Next partner I visited was Theorem Solutions. Martin gave me an overview of all the translators available and their future migration on the V6 platform. The company is also increasing its presence in the field of consultancy with their solution called Theorem Process Manager. Theorem Solutions is also now offering a data archiving service allowing customers to maintain legacy data for long term storage.

Finally, I had the chance to see the Transcat team from Germany. Martin told me about the latest release (v1.5) of Q-Compare.

Q-Compare delivers extra functionality for the comparison of two CATIA V5 files. Not only geometrical differences are detected, but also modifications of attributes, colours, naming, elements and many more. It is possible to compare drawings, parts and products, either interactively or in batch mode. With Q-Compare Version 1.5 the highlighting of model diviations right within CATIA has been improved. A new function allows to show the compared models in one single window, which makes it even easier to visualize differences. Download the flyer and release note for more details. 

As you can see, our partners came with their bags full of new solutions and features. Remember that all these solutions are available on the PLM MarketPlace and that you can request more information and even a quote online!

Now, I'd like to hear from you! Did you attend this year's ECF? What did you think about it? Something you saw/heard and want to share with us? I give you the floor!

Anthony

Here we are in Disneyland Paris, between hammers and screw drivers... We can't wait to welcome you in a few hours now at the Dassault Systèmes European Customer Forum (ECF) 2011. The whole PLM MarketPlace team will be there at the booth along with our folks from 3DS Alliances Network. 


Bienvenue!

We had some time to have an overview of the Agora where some of our partners from the PLM MarketPlace are present. They've all got some very great new things to show you. We're pretty sure that no matter what your industry or your job is, you'll find something that will bring you new ideas!

So, as we said, some of our partners are here. This includes, on the referenced partners side: OPTIS, AMD, IGE+XAO, Theorem Solutions and Transcat. We've got some resellers present this year too: Keonys, Tata Technologies, Technia, Processia Solutions and T-Systems.
We really encourage you to take a few minutes to pay these guys a visit between two sessions. This is a unique opportunity for you to discover their offers and talk about business.

For those of you who are not attending this year's ECF, we encourage you to stay tuned to our Facebook page to get some pictures and to follow the hashtag #ECF for a live tweet of the event.

Well, I guess it's time for us to get some sleep now before these two exciting days! 

A demain!

The PLM MarketPlace Team
