Analysis of effect data of Catia after using LMT LicManager system

CATIA is the abbreviation of Computer Aided Tri-Dimensional Interface Application in English. It is a mainstream CAD/CAE/CAM integrated software in the world. In the 1970s, Dassault Aviation became the first user, and CATIA came into being. From 1982 to 1988, CATIA released version 1, version 2, version 3 successively, and released a powerful version 4 in 1993. The current CATIA software is divided into two series: V4 version and V5 version. The V4 version should be used on the UNIX platform and the V5 version should be used on both UNIX and Windows platforms. Development of the V5 version began in 1994. In order to make the software easy to learn and use, Dassault System began to redevelop the brand-new CATIA V5 version in 1994. The new V5 version has a more friendly interface, more and more powerful functions, and created a new style of CAD/CAE/CAM software.

Dassault Aviation of France is a world-famous aerospace enterprise. Its products are most famous for Mirage 2000 and Rafale fighters. CATIA's product developer, Dassault System, was founded in 1981. Today, its leading position in the field of CAD/CAE/CAM and PDM has been recognized worldwide. Its sales profit has grown from $1 million at the beginning to nearly $2 billion now. The number of employees increased from 20 to more than 2000.

CATIA is the CAD/CAE/CAM integrated software of French Dassault System company, which occupies the leading position in the field of CAD/CAE/CAM in the world. It is widely used in aerospace, automobile manufacturing, shipbuilding, machinery manufacturing, electronics / electrical appliances, consumer goods industries. Its integrated solution covers all product design and manufacturing fields, and its unique DMU electronic prototype module function and hybrid modeling technology promote the improvement of enterprise competitiveness and productivity. CATIA provides convenient solutions to meet the needs of large, medium and small enterprises in all industrial sectors. Including: from the large Boeing 747 aircraft, rocket engines to cosmetics packaging, covering almost all manufacturing products. More than 13000 of the world's users choose CATIA. CATIA originates from the aerospace industry, but its powerful function has been recognized by various industries. In the European automobile industry, it has become the de facto standard. CATIA's famous users include Boeing, Chrysler, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and a large number of well-known enterprises. Its user group plays an important role in the world manufacturing industry. Boeing aircraft Company used CATIA to complete the electronic assembly of the entire Boeing 777, creating a miracle in the industry, thus confirming the leading position of CATIA in the CAD/CAE/CAM industry.

CATIA V5 version is the crystallization of IBM and Dassault Systems in the process of serving digital enterprises for a long time. CATIA V5 version, which designs the system structure around the integrated concept of digital product and e-commerce, can establish a working environment for the whole product development process for digital enterprises. In this environment, all aspects of the product development process can be simulated, and the electronic communication between engineers and non-engineers can be realized. The whole product development process includes conceptual design, detailed design, engineering analysis, definition and manufacture of finished products, as well as the use and maintenance of finished products throughout the life cycle.

Features of CATIA V5 version:

1. A new generation of reconstructed architecture

In order to ensure the development of CATIA product series, the new architecture of CATIA V5 breaks through the traditional design technology and adopts a new generation of technologies and standards, which can quickly adapt to the business development needs of enterprises and make customers have a greater competitive advantage.

two。 Support the scalability of different application levels

CATIA V5 provides a flexible combination of development processes, functions, and hardware platforms to configure the most reasonable solution for every professional member of the product development chain. Allow arbitrarily configured solutions to meet the needs from the smallest suppliers to the largest multinationals.

3. Independence from NT and UNIX hardware platform

CATIA V5 is developed on Windows NT platform and UNIX platform, and has unified data, function, release date, operating environment and application support on all supported hardware platforms. The application of CATIA V5 in Windows platform makes it easier for designers to share data with office applications, while the NT-style user interface on UNIX platform enables users to deal with complex tasks efficiently on UNIX platform.

4. Capture and reuse of specialized knowledge

CATIA V5 combines the advantages of explicit knowledge rules to interactively capture design intentions and define product performance and changes during the design process. Implicit empirical knowledge becomes explicit special knowledge, which improves the degree of automation of design and reduces the risk of design errors.

5. Smooth upgrade to existing customers

CATIA V4 and V5 are compatible and can be used in parallel. For existing CATIA V4 users, V5 leads them to the NT world. For new CATIA V5 customers, the mature follow-up application products of CATIA V4 can be fully utilized to form a complete product development environment.

Analysis of the monitoring effect of CATIA by LMT LicManager system:

Leymante's LMT LicManager license monitoring and management system is developed according to the license features of Dassault's CATIA software, which is compatible with different versions of CATIA.

The LMT LicManager system can monitor the CATIA software license globally, including whether the connection data of the license server and the local information, IP and external communication of the server are normal; in addition, monitor the use, return, continuation and authorization of the license, and the recorded data is saved in the server database. The historical data in the database is accurately displayed in the web interface, from which you can estimate the functional module usage of license, the trend of utilization, and the allocation scheme for the future.

The LicManager system classifies and classifies big data collected by monitoring, and effectively processes the data from time, working area, users, departments, departments, project team, software, software functional modules, utilization, average utilization, maximum / minimum, absolute users, total users and other classified items, and obtains the optimization of historical, current and future license usage schemes to achieve the best use of CATIA license.

The following series is the effect of monitoring statistics obtained by Lemante customers after using LMT LicManager system:

I. the use of the license:

[license usage of HD2 module in Dassault Systemes during the period 20140801-20140815]

[ranking of users using HD2 modules during the period 20140801-20140815]

Second, the analysis of specific software use:

[usage of HD2 module in Dassault Systemes software in August 201408]

[usage of HD2 module in Dassault Systemes software in 20140804]

[usage trend of HD2 modules in Dassault Systemes software in August 201408]

Third, group user usage analysis:

[usage of Dassault Systemes's HD2 module in'bb group 'and' Admin group'in August 201408]

[usage data chart of Dassault Systemes's HD2 module for'bb group 'and' Admin group'in August 201408]

Fourth, the trend analysis of the use of functional modules:

[usage data of Dassault Systemes's HD2 module in 201408]

[trend of maximum utilization of Dassault Systemes's HD2 module in 201408]

[trend of average utilization of Dassault Systemes's HD2 modules in 201408]

5. Conclusion:

The LMT LicManager software license monitoring system comprehensively monitors and manages the use of software functional modules and records the required application data. In the data analysis provided by the LicManager system, managers can timely understand whether the current use of software functional modules is normal, understand the peak and trough periods of the use of software functional modules within a day, grasp the number of software functional modules used by a specific user, and predict the usage trend of functional modules license. Through the understanding of the specific use of license, we can make favorable resource allocation strategies in its use and management in the future, in order to maximize the utilization of resources and minimize the cost.
