Ansoft Corp. (Pittsburgh, PA) released the HFSS™ v9 for the Sun Solaris® and HP/UX 64-bit operating systems. The HFSS v9 for UNIX® provides a number of larger installations with continued support for existing clusters of high-end UNIX 64-bit compute servers. As with all releases of HFSS, this version provides cross-platform support between UNIX and PC hardware, enabling a mixed environment of compute hardware within a single corporate network.
"The seamless cross-platform interoperability is important for UNIX-based HFSS users because they typically have a mixed compute environment, including desktop PCs," said Brad Brim, product marketing manager, HFSS. "This availability introduces cross-platform users to an entirely new level of electromagnetic-based design-flow automation."
