Challenged to Succeed Perhaps no industry faces greater pressure to drive ongoing innovation than electronics and semiconductors. With rapid technology advanc- es, intense global competition and demanding customers, electronics companies are doomed to fail if they don't keep pace with very short product life cycles and frequent new product launches. From semiconductors to cell phones and tablets to servers and networking devices, by the time a new product is launched, the next generations are already in development. Every market segment has its own unique performance demands, but generally across the industry electronics engineers are continually challenged to develop smaller, lighter-weight, more powerful, more feature-rich and more energy-efficient products — at a lower cost. How can your electronics engineering team produce a steady stream of truly game-changing innovations, quickly and cost effectively? Today, the strategic application of engineering simula- tion — in which products are designed and vali- dated in a virtual environment — is separating the leaders from the followers. With ever-shortening product life cycles, semiconductor and electronics companies face incredible pressure to innovate, quickly and consistently. Can your business keep up? Aerospace and defense electronics companies invest heavily in R&D, and our products play a central role in developing airborne antennas, radar systems and com- munication devices. We also contribute to the "more electric aircraft" concept, which rep- resents a major industry driver. ANSYS software helps engineers confidently and reliably replace traditional mechanical and hydraulic systems with fault-tolerant, lightweight electronic and power systems.
