WELCOME
In today's technologically driven industries, Research & Development units are rapidly advancing in simulating real world processes ever more realistically. We are witnessing a revolution in both the design of products as well as the testing and verification process, which is increasingly performed before the actual product comes into existence. Computer simulations of this kind are only feasible if they yield answers within a short time-frame: however, equally important is the development time it takes for the R&D team to generate such simulations.
At the heart of these new and growing advancements is the need to solve millions of mathematical equations for which evaluating first and second-order derivatives are necessary. The ability to calculate these derivatives accurately, efficiently and automatically can give you a substantial advantage over the competition.
