Today we\u2019re in the early stages of the digital transformation. To appreciate just how far we\u2019ve come, it makes sense to take a moment and look back at the tools we used throughout the decades before model-based design, 3D CAD \u2013 even the desktop computer. Yes, that far back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this episode, \u201cDesign Tools and Practices \u2013 Past, Present and into the Future\u201d<\/em> we discuss the tools and methodologies electrical engineers have used in the past. The popular tools used today. And the promise of what future tools might bring. The industry has gone through numerous catalysts, or inflection points that have fostered change over the years, and we\u2019ll discuss a few of these catalysts. We\u2019ll talk about the impetus behind these catalysts and how these catalysts changed the landscape for the better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, we\u2019ll also talk about our current catalyst \u2013 the digital transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Listen to episode #2 here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Capital today \u2013 and into the future<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Capital has been involved in electrical system development for the past 20 years. It offered a model-based approach before the digital enterprise took off. Just recently, Capital\u2019s electrical and electronic systems development environment has been expanded beyond electrical distribution systems, to electrical systems modeling and optimization, electronics software and networks. Capital is now a comprehensive E\/E development environment with direct ties to the Siemens Xcelerator<\/a> portfolio. The Xcelerator portfolio has tentacles that extend into many of Siemens’ most popular PLM, ALM, and systems engineering solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re curious to learn more about our new Capital E\/E Systems development environment, please visit the Capital E\/E Systems<\/a> website.
