A.D. Achlama is developing its new, leading edge technology, the Multi-core edition of Annabelle.
Annabelle™ is the most advanced and powerful software available for evaluating requirements and performance of complex systems, such as military fleets or industrial plants. Its accurate, uncompromised, modeling and performance estimation are based on the use of simulation methodology, which, however, may lead to long execution times in case of big, multi-component systems.
The multi-core edition will allow for parallel processing thereby significantly reducing simulation times. As a result, running times of even sizeable and complicated models will become moderate or small. Degree of simulation time reduction will depend upon the number of cores (CPUs) of the computer. Preliminary tests showed that calculation times on a computer with 6 cores were reduced by the factor of 5.7.
At the first step the multi-core processing has been fully implemented for both General and Optimizer (Mode 1/2) Scenarios of Annabelle.
