Benefits of the WebTop

The WebTop offers numerous benefits from both a user and management perspective. It is ideal for users who want to run models and see results with minimal configuration on their part.

Additional benefits of using the SIMULIA Execution Engine WebTop are as follows:

  • Low installation and maintenance cost. The WebTop runs in a web browser and requires no SIMULIA Execution Engine-specific software installation on the client system. Users must have the correct network permissions to access a webserver with the SIMULIA Execution Engine WebTop application installed.

  • Remote accessibility. The WebTop allows you to access published models remotely, as long as you have secure access to the appropriate network.

  • Lower user expertise required to access models and get results. WebTop users do not need to know how to build Isight models. They access previously created models, change parameter values or component formulations (for DOE, Monte Carlo, Optimization, and Six Sigma components only), and execute the model any number of times, which allows for greater access to results. In addition, WebTop users do not have to focus on building components to be parts of models because the model, and the components that comprise them, are already created.

  • Simple usage process. WebTop users log on to the system, load a model, alter the model’s parameter values and formulation (if desired), and execute the model. Results are then displayed directly in the WebTop and can even be downloaded in formats that can be loaded into Isight or Microsoft Excel as well as other programs.

  • Protect your intellectual property, but don’t restrict it. You can leverage your intellectual property for more specific disciplines, while providing the functionality to a large audience.

  • Spreading the wealth. The WebTop allows you to use the expertise and work of others (mainly those responsible for building the models) while focusing on your task. You can focus on your strengths but still get a good idea of the overall system effects of your changes.
