 | | In the siting process, once a turbine is operational, Vestas engineers will use the new software and supercomputer to predict its performance, analyze how each blade reacts to weather changes, and determine the best times to schedule maintenance. The company expects to analyze even more diverse and bigger weather data sets reaching 20-plus petabytes over the next four years. |

| IBM announced that Invensys Rail Dimetronic, a leading railway signaling technology company in the Spain and Portugal, is using IBM software and systems development tools to design sophisticated signaling technology for railway applications. |
| Krasnoyarsk Hydropower Plant is Russia’s second largest energy-producing plant, according to the amount of electricity produced, and is listed as one of the world’s top ten, serving 2.5 million people. It is the primary generator of electricity in the Krasnoyarsk region and one of the country’s most cost-efficient. |
| IBM is making a significant commitment to the business partner community to help them quickly ramp up and participate in the industry shift to cloud computing, a market opportunity that will grow from $96B in 2011 to $219B in 2015. |
| With IBM software, Bolsa de Comercio de Santiago, a large stock exchange in Chile, is now able to process high-volume trading in microseconds, increasing their transaction capacity by 900 percent. |

| Called cognitive computers, systems built with these chips won’t be programmed the same way traditional computers are today. Rather, cognitive computers are expected to learn through experiences, find correlations, create hypotheses, and remember – and learn from – the outcomes, mimicking the brains structural and synaptic plasticity. |
| While linking development to requirements is an intuitive notion, when put into practice, managing the complexities of changing project requirements can present significant challenges. Ineffective requirements management can create inconsistencies that remain undiscovered until the final phase of development, which is when the code is most difficult and most expensive to fix. In the “rush to code,” development teams often lose sight of the fact that mapping projects to requirements is the best way to guarantee project success–delivering code on time that meets customer expectation–with the ability to effectively manage the inevitable requirements changes customers request as the project moves forward. |
| Who hasn’t upgraded to a new mobile device (by agreeing to a two year service guarantee) only to discover a few months later that their friends have just purchased a device that makes theirs obsolete? If you think that this is hard on the consumer, think of the challenges and risks that it places on the manufacturers of such devices. In this paper the multidimensional aspects of these problems that confront mobile device manufacturers are discussed. Guidelines are offered that will enable manufacturers to streamline developments and take advantages of previously developed and proven code, get to market faster and contain costs. |
| This white paper focuses on delivering quality in software components, specifically the critical step of unit testing. Advances in model-based testing technology from IBM are designed to provide software engineers the ability to seamlessly integrate unit testing into their model-based development process, even using code developed outside of the modeling environment. |
| SysML is widely used by the engineering community to properly capture system requirements, functional and architectural design, and detailed interfaces and design characteristics. This paper describes the logical next step: applying SysML with proven trade study techniques for the purpose of exploring the design space and execution analysis. |
