Process integration
allows software tools to be linked together so that data flows
seamlessly between them. In the engineering domain,
process integration is used to streamline design processes and
enable multidisciplinary trade studies and
optimization.
The primary motivation for process
integration is that organizations want to use their existing
tools in a more efficient manner. The existing toolset may
include legacy programs (typically C or Fortran file-based
programs), spreadsheets, CAD models, cost models, finite element
analyses, databases, PDM systems, etc.
Process integration software
includes built-in methods for:
- Communicating with or
"automating" tools, both locally and across a network
- Linking and transforming data between tools
- Managing dependencies and
tool execution
- Iterating design variables
and tracking results for design convergence, trade studies,
or optimization
- Parallel and distributed
computation
- Post-processing results to
display data visualizations or perform statistical analysis
