Mentor Graphics Launches FloEFD Product with Sliding Mesh, Water Film and Enhanced Radiation Capabilities

WILSONVILLE, Ore., Dec. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced the latest release of its award-winning FloEFD(TM) upfront and concurrent computational fluid dynamics (CFD) product. This new release provides advanced capabilities and functionality which enables designers and analysts to create more realistic operating environments and models for improved simulation accuracy.  New features include a sliding mesh model for rotating equipment such as pumps, fans, and blowers; water film simulation to calculate surface condensation and icing film thickness; together with radiation and lighting enhancements. These new capabilities support automotive industry initiatives for developing state of the art lighting products as well as enabling manufacturers to design better pumps, fans and blowers.

http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20141126/161131

"I am pleased to let you know that Tamturbo Oy Ltd. has been successfully using FloEFD for high speed compressor CFD simulations.  Our test models show that the new sliding mesh rotor-stator interface model is very accurate and can be used for high speed compressor simulations" said Jaakko Sailakivi, chief technology officer. "In addition, I have also found technical support from Mentor Graphics to be very professional. The combination of powerful general purpose upfront CFD analysis capabilities and fast technical support has enabled us to use FloEFD as the primary CFD solution in our company."  Tamturbo Ltd. manufactures high speed compressors for use in food production as well as chemical and medical industries.

The FloEFD product is a leading general-purpose CFD software solution for the mechanical design market, and the new enhancements were developed to help engineers create more accurate simulation environments for their products.  New key features include:

    --  Sliding mesh modeling: allows users to create more realistic simulation
        of rotating equipment when fluid quantity is highly non-uniform around a
        rotating part (such as a pump or fan) and cannot otherwise be calculated
        with circumferential averaging.
    --  Surface condensation and evaporation: the new water film model is
        valuable for situations where surface condensation, evaporation, icing
        and de-icing exploration is essential, such as condensation on the inner
        surfaces of an automobile headlight.
    --  Enhanced radiation modeling: The new ray-based (band-less) spectral
        model for lighting and radiation allows users to dramatically decrease
        time required for defining wavelength-dependent properties while
        increasing simulation accuracy of spectral characteristics. Gaussian
        surface reflection for more precise simulation of reflected radiation is
        also included. Inclination of solar rays from the parallel can now be
        taken into account too thus allowing capture of solar radiation in
        greater detail.
    --  Usability and visibility enhancements: The new release of the FloEFD
        product features an improved parametric study capability. It allows the
        user to group input variables to simplify scenario definition, filter
        parameters, highlight impact on results of a specific parameter, and
        conduct built-in comparisons thus increasing parametric study efficiency
        and dramatically decreasing the size of the stored data when hundreds of
        variants are calculated.
    --  Improved visualization: The addition of GPU-based dynamic trajectories
        allows users to highlight flow details better and easily adjust the
        animation speed as well as appearance of trajectories in real time. A
        popular MPEG-4 codec has also been added for the creation of attractive
        animations without requiring enormous amounts of disk space.
"We recognize the challenges our customers face, particularly those in automotive systems design, and our latest version of FloEFD provides significant support for this market," stated Roland Feldhinkel, general manager of Mentor Graphics Mechanical Analysis Division. "Mentor Graphics is an established leader in CFD technology and our latest enhancements to the FloEFD product are imperative to our customer's success and profitability by enabling the development of new and innovative technologies."

Product Availability
The new FloEFD product with sliding mesh, water film and increased lighting and radiation features is available for shipment today.

Open Industry Alliance and IEEE to Bring 2.5G and 5G Ethernet Speeds to Enterprise Access Points

Multi-Rate Gigabit Ethernet Base-T to Deliver Cost-Effective Scaling of Network Bandwidth to Enterprise Networks

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Dec. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading technology vendors Aruba Networks, (NASDAQ:ARUN), Avaya (NYSE: AV), Broadcom Corporation (NASDAQ: BRCM), Brocade (NASDAQ: BRCD), Delta Electronics, Delta Networks, Freescale® Semiconductor (NYSE: FSL), Pulse Electronics (OTC Pink: PULS) and Ruijie Networks today announced their support for  the IEEE efforts to bring 2.5G and 5G Ethernet speeds to enterprise access points and other systems relying on unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cabling. The IEEE has formed a study group to understand the need for these new speeds that will meet the high demand for Ethernet between 1G and 10G, which are the only standard options available today for high-speed networking over UTP cables.

With advanced technologies in enterprise networks and increasing numbers of wireless computing devices connecting to next-generation cloud infrastructure, 1000BASE-T Ethernet is limited in bandwidth while 10GBASE-T Ethernet requires UTP Cat6a cabling, a costly upgrade to the install base of Cat5e and Cat 6 cables that constitutes the majority of the cabling installed base today. The addition of the 2.5G and 5G Ethernet link protocol speeds will enable the cost effective scaling of network bandwidth delivered to enterprise access points and provide IT professionals with more data rate options.

To meet growing industry demand for the deployment of new Ethernet speeds and to create true multi-vendor solutions, this group of leading technology vendors has formed the MGBASE-T Alliance. The specification adopted by the Alliance leverages many of the fundamental technologies in Ethernet standards as defined in the IEEE 802.3 10GBASE-T, enabling faster time to market with minimal research and development efforts for ecosystem vendors. The specification is available royalty-free to all members.

"Formed in June, the goal of the Alliance is to work alongside the IEEE to accelerate the deployment of 2.5G and 5G BASE-T from multiple component and system vendors by enabling an end-to-end solution," said Simon Assouad, President, MGBASE-T Alliance. "The new Ethernet speeds will enable enterprise users to unleash the full benefits of next generation 802.11ac (Wave 1 & 2) wireless technology using existing cabling infrastructure."

The MGBASE-T Alliance members will support the work of  the IEEE 802.3 that  allows the industry to achieve interoperability and ultimately enable widespread and successful adoption of new technologies through its collaborative and consensus driven process.

MGBASE-T Alliance and Specification

The MGBASE-T Alliance is open to membership from any ecosystem company or organization. To become a member of the MGBASE-T Alliance, visit http://www.mgbasetalliance.org

Additional Quotes
Broadcom Corporation
"We are proud to be a leading contributor to the MGBASE-T Alliance," said Dr. Ali Abaye, Senior Director, Product Marketing, Broadcom Corporation.  "A Broadcom delegate to IEEE 802.3 initiated the Call For Interest (CFI) for the formation of a study group within the IEEE 802.3 on intermediate speeds between 1G and 10G to help start the standardization process of additional Ethernet speeds. We believe the advancement of 2.5G and 5G Ethernet standards are imperative for the advancement of enterprise access points."

Brocade
"Increasing bandwidth demands for enterprise access points is driving the need for an intermediate Ethernet rate of 2.5G" said Siva Valliappan, Vice-President of Campus Product Management, at Brocade. "We are excited to be part of the MGBASE-T Alliance and will work with the IEEE to help drive industry convergence and standardization around these new Ethernet speeds in support of emerging customer needs."

Freescale Semiconductor
"Already supporting multigigabit rates with its QorIQ® processors, Freescale looks forward to standardized 2.5Gbps and 5Gbps operation over Cat 5e cable," said Nikolay Guenov, Director, Product Marketing, Freescale's Digital Networking Group.

Pix-Star Adds Video Clip Sending Capability to Its Innovative, Award-winning Photo Frames

HONG KONG, Dec. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Pix-Star, the pioneering company behind "the frame with an email address," has introduced a new, innovative and unique functionality to its products - the ability to send short video clips to frames via email. This video clip sending feature is now standard on all the newest 10.4- and 15-inch frames, both of which are available now on Amazon.

"Sending pictures by email to friends and family with Pix-Star frames is already such an exciting feature but being able to send short video clips is even better," explained Herve Robin, CEO of Spheris Digital Ltd, parent company of Pix-Star. "While photos capture moments, video captures events and experiences. We hope that our frames can help people feel more connected and engaged, without the steep learning curve that comes with most Internet and communications technologies."

The potential usage scenarios for Pix-Star's video clip email sending function are almost limitless. With nearly everyone today carrying a Wi-Fi-capable smartphone, it's easy to capture memorable happenings; now, anyone can very easily send not only pictures but also video clips to a Pix-Star photo frame. Parties, graduations, weddings, children's first steps and more are all video-worthy experiences that users can share with a friend or loved one unable to attend in person.

In developing its flagship product, Pix-Star considered the needs of people who may not be enthusiastic about learning a new technology. That's why the photo frame is so breathtakingly simple to use. Tech-savvy grandchildren, for example, can quickly set up a photo frame straight out of the box and then send video from their smartphone, no matter where in the world they happen to be. Grandparents who live far away and don't travel will particularly appreciate the video sharing feature.

Pictures and video both look fantastic on Pix-Star frames, thanks to their high quality screens with rich colors and energy efficient LED backlighting. Because Pix-Star photo frames take advantage of built-in Wi-Fi to access the Internet, users don't need to have a computer nearby for the frame to work.

Video email sharing is just the tip of the iceberg with Pix-Star photo frames. Pix-Star photo frames are also a "daily life companion" for elderly people with features such as web radios, alarms & reminders, "games for the brain" and it can also be connected to 20 online photo albums and storage services, including Instagram, Flickr, Facebook, Dropbox, and more.

Customer reviews of Pix-Star products on Amazon have been overwhelmingly positive, with most being 5 stars. Meanwhile, the company works hard to ensure that everyone who buys a photo frame is completely satisfied for the life of the product. With that goal in mind, Pix-Star provides free, automatic software updates on every product, along with responsive, 24/7 email support.

Looking ahead, Pix-Star aims to continue developing smart, functional connected digital photo frames and related technologies that are easy to use for everyone.

About Pix-Star

Pix-Star, owned by Spheris Digital Ltd, has been designing, manufacturing and selling connected photoframes since 2007. The Pix-Star team combines more than 20 years of experience in the fields of telecom, software and web design.

    Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Ireland, Norway, Netherlands, Poland and Sweden

    Weplan [http://goo.gl/47N2La ] is a free Android app that analyses the calls,
connections and messages from users' smartphones and suggests the plan and company that
best meets their needs. After an exhaustive study of the telephony market in Belgium,
Denmark, Finland, Greece, Ireland, Norway, Netherlands, Poland and Sweden, the company has
built an extensive database that includes all plans and companies in the countries,
allowing it to offer the best plan for consumers from the 46 currently available.

    After being installed, the app helps the user to select their current plan, performs
an automatic analysis of consumption and instantly recommends the optimal plan in an
accurate, independent and completely impartial manner. In addition, if the customer wants
to change to a cheaper plan Weplan facilitates this process.

    But Weplan is not just for comparing phone plans. To deliver greater savings, the app
also facilitates consumption control through a simple and functional alerts, graphs and
statistics system. In this way, users can always have control over call, SMS and Internet
consumption, differentiating between Wi-Fi and mobile networks.

    Consumption figures are shown in real time and the personalized alert service allows
for various types of warnings: when a certain level of consumption is reached, when a user
is about to exhaust their Internet browsing plan, upon reaching the end of the contract or
after each call, indicating its cost, helping users avoid surprises on their phone bill.

    Finally, Belgians will be able to ignore the fine print and truly start saving on the
phone bill with Weplan.

    The international launch begins in seven Latin American countries (Mexico, Chile,
Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Brazil) and 14 European countries (Germany,
Austria, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, Finland, Sweden,

Quantum3D Announces Global Airports Capability for Mantis

The industry's most scalable visual simulation platform now offers over 27,000 airports together with its worldwide visual database

ORLANDO, Fla., Dec. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- I/ITSEC Booth # 2000 -- Quantum3D, Inc., a leading provider of visual computing solutions for government and commercial applications, today announced a dramatic leap forward in simulated global airport coverage with an inventory of over 27,000 airfields now available for simulators running Mantis. Mantis is Quantum3D's award-winning real-time scene management and image generation software, already in use for training of thousands of pilots worldwide.

Responding to the need for more flexible and spontaneous pilot training scenarios, Quantum3D's Global Airports allows you to fly to and operate from almost any airfield on Earth without the need for time-consuming modeling or custom scenario preparation. These airports are added to the database "on-the-fly" as pilots navigate and train worldwide on Mantis. Many of the airfields provided in its vast library are already in sufficient detail to satisfy FAA Level D Class II training.

Many of the 27,000 Global Airports include:

    --  Runways at correct location and orientation, with identifier markings
    --  Taxiways, taxiway signs, and runway distance remaining signs
    --  Approach lighting systems, runway and taxiway light points
    --  Visual approach aids (VASI and PAPI)
    --  ... and more
Additionally, Global Airports gives users the ability to easily add airfields, or to modify and enrich airfields already in the library without having to recompile the visual database.

"Mantis dynamically creates and merges airfield geometry at runtime so there is no need to recompile or regenerate existing terrain in the visual database. Our customers can now create new airfields as simply as editing a text file," said Jan Bjernfalk, vp of products, Quantum3D. "Mantis is the only fully scalable IG platform that scales with user's needs from a single channel desktop trainer up to a large 30+ channel full-motion simulator while running the same software and visual content across all simulation environments."

Mantis is available on a wide range of platforms including off-the shelf PCs running Windows or Linux, and Independence® IDX-series Image Generators. The Global Airports feature with 27,000 airports is available today as part of the RunwayFX plug-in for Mantis.

Quantum3D will be demonstrating Mantis this week, including the new Global Airports feature, in its booth (#2000) at the I/ITSEC conference held in the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida during December 1-4.

Touchless Sensing Technology Represents the Next Paradigm in Human-Machine Interface, Finds Frost & Sullivan

These sensing solutions will transform industries ranging from consumer electronics to gaming

LONDON, Nov. 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Touchless sensing technologies were initially used in applications such as bathroom dispensing units and automatic doors which required motion sensing in order to create response. With advanced touchless sensing technologies like gesture sensing, voice commands, brain wave sensing and eye tracking coming to the fore, the application potential of these solutions has expanded considerably. In consumer application segments, gesture sensing can be expected to be the most promising touchless interface technology.

New analysis from Frost & Sullivan, Touchless Sensors Technology - 9 Dimensional Assessment, expects next-generation interfaces enabled by cutting-edge touchless technologies to penetrate the consumer electronics, healthcare, automotive, security, military and gaming industries. Of the various segments and sub-segments, mobile electronic devices will offer the utmost opportunities to touchless sensing technology providers.

In recent years, haptics and touch technology have become dominant paradigms in human-machine interface (HMI), which have become a prominent research area due to the proliferation of versatile digital devices. The physical keyboard is slowly retreating - although not obsolete - and giving way to touch-screening modes that allow users to not only move the screen, but also enlarge the screen and access virtual keyboards to interact with applications and the device itself. However, currently, the status of the touch-based technology is being challenged by touchless HMI technologies.

"Various approaches and methodologies are constantly being investigated to improve user interaction with digital devices," noted Technical Insights Research Analyst Jabez Mendelson. "Touchless sensing technologies present itself as one such approach offering numerous value-added benefits to users, which includes easy and natural interaction with digital devices."

Still, efforts to encourage users to opt for touchless sensing systems are called for, as remote controls, keypads and touchscreens have been employed to execute tasks and applications for many years. Apart from this, touchless sensing technology providers will have to address the significant problems and challenges faced in practicability in implementing the solution and also the technical limitations faced by them. For instance, if the touchless sensing technologies have a lesser accuracy rate, the users could end up waving their hands or blinking their eyes several times just to effectuate one task.

"Despite these challenges, original equipment manufacturers choose to use these next-generation touchless technologies in high-end and everyday products," said Research Analyst Jabez Mendelson. "Speech recognition, eye tracking and gesture technology providers should offer low-cost solutions to aid end-product manufacturers achieve this objective."

For more information on this study, please email Julia Nikishkina Corporate Communications, at julia.nikishkina@frost.com.

Touchless Sensors Technology - 9 Dimensional Assessment, a part of the Technical Insights (http://www.technicalinsights.frost.com) subscription, covers the key technology trends in the touchless sensing technology space assessed based on nine different dimensions: year of impact, market potential, global footprint, intellectual property activity, funding, breadth of industries, megatrend impact, potential points of convergence, and size of the innovation ecosystem. Further, this research service includes detailed technology analysis and industry trends evaluated following extensive interviews with market participants.

Too Young for a Smartphone, Ready for Ibudy

GENEVA, November 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

    Ibudy
[https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ibudy-too-young-for-a-smartphone-ready-for-ibudy ] is
the first device that connects parents and children as easily as a smartphone but without
the disadvantages.

    The reason a parent will not give a phone to his child is exactly why he will prefer
an Ibudy.

    To view the Multimedia News Release, please click:

    http://www.multivu.com/players/English/7389951-ibudy-too-young-for-a-smartphone

    The Ibudy app allows parents to:

    - Follow the child's activity (his location, route, etc.)

    - Find the child in places it's usually difficult to locate someone (beaches, parking
lots, etc.) thanks to the smart compass

    - Send messages (texts or emoticons)

    - Be advised if the child approaches or leaves a trusted area (school, home, etc.)

    - Be notified if the child needs help

    With Ibudy the child can:

    - Customize his Ibudy with a choice of fun characters and colors to make him unique

    - Be more independent

    - Become responsible: like with a Tamagotchi, the child will have to make his Ibudy
evolve by doing as many things as possible every day

    - Receive messages from family members and create a direct contact if necessary, even
remotely

    - Feel safe. In the event the child gets lost he can alert his family members. The
child also has his emergency identity card on his Ibudy (name, age, blood type and
emergency numbers)

    Conveniently, Ibudy
[https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ibudy-too-young-for-a-smartphone-ready-for-ibudy ] has
thought of everything:

    - No subscription, no commitment: Parents can choose between a subscription or a
prepaid card with the operator of their choice

    - Economical: Ibudy uses only low frequencies (EDGE / 2G)

    - Durable: Waterproof and shock resistant

    - Ergonomic: Adapted to children's morphology

    - Practical: The App allows you to enter more than one administrator and manage
multiple children

    About Ibudy

    Ibudy was designed by two Swiss entrepreneurs, Raphael & Denis Hayoun.

    Ibudy is currently crowdfunding a campaign on the Indiegogo
[https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/ibudy-too-young-for-a-smartphone-ready-for-ibudy ]
platform until December 25th at the unit price of $129 for the first 100 contributors.
