Ciespace Announces the Release of the CAE Industry's First SaaS Application for 3D Engineering Design and Simulation

-- Ciespace Cloud-Based CFD Solution Available Worldwide

SANTA CLARA, California, June 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Ciespace Corporation, an early stage, venture-backed software company based in Santa Clara, CA, is pleased to announce the commercial release of its next generation SaaS application platform for engineering design and simulation. The company's Version 1.0 product is now in full production and in use by both commercial and educational customers around the globe.

Ciespace CFD is the first end-to-end CAE application made available on the Ciespace SaaS engineering simulation platform. Ciespace CFD is the industry's first web browser-based CFD solution that combines a next generation Web 2.0 user interface and state of the art geometry and patented BubbleMesh™ mesh generation capabilities - all integrated with the most advanced open source simulation and visualization technologies available on the market today.

This solution brings an entirely new level of automation to a largely slow, manual and time-consuming model preparation process, greatly reducing the level of knowledge and training required to use advanced engineering simulation tools. Leveraging next generation geometry repair and mesh generation capabilities, Ciespace CFD empowers a new class of engineering simulation users, broadening the number of potential users and use cases for digital prototyping technology.

"By moving the simulation workflow process from the desktop to the cloud, we remove many of the traditional constraints engineers have had to contend with in the past," said Mr. Buchowski, VP Product Management at Ciespace. "By unlocking the potential of cloud-based computing – in terms of resource scalability, parallel workflow and project management, and real time 3D collaboration – we have created an engineering simulation environment that can be used by a much broader set of users, tearing down the historical barriers that have limited the proliferation of digital simulation technology – all at a fraction of the cost."

Ciespace CFD offers significant value to engineering organizations by providing:

• Efficiency – Pay for what you use, when you need it, with access to thousands of cores from any browser-based device
• Collaboration – Share 3D models/results in real time and perform multi-site collaboration
• Openness – Run OpenFOAM™ solvers; or upload your own commercial or custom solver
• Agility – Import, prepare, mesh, solve, and visualize multiple jobs in parallel

"Ciespace is pioneering an entirely new concept in engineering simulation," stated Kevin Kerns, CEO at Ciespace. "Over the next five (5) years, we believe there will be a major paradigm shift in how people consume engineering design and simulation technology. Ciespace is providing the thought-leadership and is the clear first mover in the 3D engineering space. With our Version 1 release, Ciespace is the first to introduce a complete 3D end-to-end SaaS application in the CAE industry."
