ACCOMPLISHMENTS
- Model can be assembled, tested
and modified to meet project requirements, long before funds are
invested in the computer
- Does real-time analysis of a
proposed system after it has been configured
- Consists of both analytics (less
time consuming and fast mathematical model) and discrete event simulation
(more time consuming and more precise)
- Addresses all components of
system, including hardware, software, network, and data placement
|
COMMERCIALIZATION
- Commercial product introduced,
initial sales of $150K
- Worldwide Sales Channel, one
of 10 largest software distributors, projects commercial sales of
$25M
- Strategic partnership based
upon technology established with large hardware company
- Contract with Computer Associates
supported porting to PC and UNIX environment, CA now markets and
sells software as "Application Modeler"
