Exploration, Optimization and Iterative Design

摘要

The beginning of the design process can involve as much as art as science, and a lot of trial and error. In the past, the ability of engineers to explore the design space and come up with optimal solutions has been limited by time, computing resources and even the experience of the design team. Technology is changing that. Specifically, design exploration and optimization strategies, combined with high-performance computing (HPC), can help engineers make faster decisions about key design criteria, run through and eliminate more iterations faster, and reduce the amount of manual labor required during all phases of design.
