Infolytica has been hard at work preparing its software applications for the brave new world of 64bit processing.

Consistently being rated as having the fastest software in the electromagnetic simulation industry, by both current customers as well as evaluators of its products, has not prevented Infolytica from continually pushing the boundaries in search of conquering the challenges that today's designers face These challenges include developing more complex multi-physics simulations that require powerful computer processors and unlimited memory allocations

Over the past several months, the company has been hard at work preparing its software applications for the brave new world of 64bit processing.

Along the way, it reckons it has made considerable strides in achieving speedier and more memory-efficient applications that will not only benefit users of the soon-to-be-released (Q3 2005) 64bit versions, but also benefit those currently using the 32bit versions, as well.

The migration to Microsoft's Windows XP Professional x64 platform presented a tremendous opportunity for Infolytica to update the architecture of its systems, and the groundwork has resulted in a significant increase in speed (from 1.1 to 2.5 times faster) and sizeable memory allocations (from 1.2 to 2.0 times larger ) in 32bit versions, allowing for larger 3D problem size.

Of course, these increases will not only be inherently ported to the new 64bit versions, but will reap substantial gains to users when combined with the up to 16Tbyte of virtual memory that will be available for the analysis of large devices.
