Distributed execution

Using HEEDS provides you with transparent and automatic distributed execution functionality that helps you accelerate the process of testing virtual prototypes. Specific capabilities include the ability to:

• Leverage all available computing resources
• Reduce simulation turnaround with multiple levels of parallelization, such as workflow, tasks and cores
• Support unlimited load cases
• Orchestrate simulation tasks across platforms and operating systems
• Leverage efficient licensing schemes, high-performance computers (HPCs) and cloud resources
• Maximize your investment in virtual simulation with 24/7/365 run availability

HEEDS allows you to effectively leverage your existing hardware investment as the solution allows efficient use of all your hardware resources, including local, remote, cluster and cloud computing. For example, you can automate geometry modifications on your laptop’s Windows distributed execution operating system, perform a structural deformation simulation on a Linux server and a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation on multiple cores of a Linux cluster. HEEDS can be used to orchestrate the entire distributed process and consolidate design space exploration results.
