To Enhance System Modeling Solutions,
from Faults Detection to System Reliability Analysis, and
Maintainability Prediction
Paris, France - December 7, 2016 - ESI
Group, leading innovator in Virtual Prototyping software
and services for manufacturing industries, announces the signing of
a long-term strategic partnership with PARC, a Xerox company
and renowned provider of custom R&D and technology solutions
to Global 1000 companies and government agencies. The partnership
initially focuses on expanding and industrializing PARC's advanced
research project on Fault Augmented Model Extension (FAME),
initiated with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
(DARPA). The partnership encompasses system reliability modeling,
system safety assessment, predictive maintenance, and
condition-based maintenance. These capabilities will come to
strengthen the already existing ESI solutions dedicated to
helping industrial manufacturers overcome engineering issues
related to complex cyber-physical systems.
As today's industrial systems incorporate
increasingly complex hardware and software sub-systems, an
integrated model- and data-driven approach has become essential to
address design, validation and operational issues throughout the
system design and operations cycles. Over the years, ESI has been
developing coherent and integrated virtual prototyping solutions
that enable industrial customers to virtually manufacture and
evaluate product performance in different environments and use
cases. Today, ESI extends its proposition to smart virtual
prototyping; giving its customers the ability to animate their
virtual prototypes and use the latest technologies, including big
data analytics and machine learning, to accurately predict and
manage product operational performance from an early stage.
ESI's partnership with PARC marks the
continuation of ESI's strategic investments in system simulation.
Indeed, in 2013, ESI acquired the cloud-based system design
specialist CyDesign Labs, based in the Silicon Valley, and more
recently the German company ITI GmbH, developer and vendor of
SimulationX, the leading Modelica-based system simulation
application in the field of System Modeling of cyber-physical
systems. ESI has also complemented its data-driven system analytics
capabilities by acquiring earlier this year Mineset Inc.,
specialized in web-based visual analytics and machine-learning and
also based in the Silicon Valley. The research projects conducted
in collaboration with PARC will accelerate the development of
hybrid virtual prototyping and data-driven analytics solutions to
maximize the useful and operationally reliable lifecycle of the
products developed by ESI's clients
Tolga Kurtoglu, Vice President and
Director of the System Sciences Lab (SSL) at PARC, remarks:
"Industrial manufacturers want to minimize the cost of complex
systems, while maximizing performance. Design teams need to be able
to quantify reliability and mitigate risk at the earliest phase of
the process. We will work with ESI in partnership to help customers
identify problem areas, gain insight, and quantify the impact of
component failure through time and use of a manufactured system's
lifecycle. Mature and complex industries, including transportation,
aerospace, defense, and energy, will benefit from our FAME project,
and we are thrilled to work with ESI Group to bring these
capabilities to customers around the world."
Fadi Ben Achour, Electronics Business
Development VP at ESI Group, comments on the long-term strategic
partnership between ESI and PARC: "We are honored that such a
highly regarded organization as PARC, with extensive expertise in
system diagnostics, prognostics and condition based maintenance,
has chosen ESI to industrialize one of their breakthrough
technologies." He continues: "Building on our existing expertise,
the results from research conducted at PARC will enable ESI to
deliver industrial solutions to answer system level challenges and
to leverage the data generated by our customers systems during
operations. Of course, we are also excited by the impact on our
efforts to build a strong eco-system in San Francisco Bay Area and
its hyper dynamic and innovative Silicon Valley".
