Acceleration Software Company Brings New Era Of Technology To Advanced RF/Microwave Design

By Acceleware Corp.

Time is critical in the design and production process. The demand is growing stronger for a significantly faster, alternative to the time consuming simulations required to complete a product design. This increased demand has forced RF design engineers to look beyond their design flow and envision the bigger picture when it comes to delivering products to market. Providing one of the leading solutions to this problem is an acceleration software company, Acceleware Corp., based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Bringing a new era of technology to advanced RF/microwave design, Acceleware promises to deliver accelerated processing to the industry – potentially speeding up simulations as much as 35 times.

Historically, simple measurements and calculations were sufficient to bring products to market. As the complexity of designs has increased, so has the demand to use supercomputers with specialized vector math processors to simulate the complex electromagnetic models necessary to produce circuit boards, wireless handsets, and antenna designs. In the mid ‘90's, the industry saw significant performance gains on desktop systems as Intel and AMD platforms become powerful enough to solve this time-consuming issue. Today, however, design engineers have reached a new speed threshold with their desktops and are faced with the realization that they have to look to new technologies to push forward with their product and production development.
