This piece came up in my Google news alerts this morning.  I did the interview just a few days ago, so it is good to see such a quick turn around. Dassault, UGS in 3-D PLM Race I didn’t quite expect to see a comparison piece between us and Dassault, but it’s an interesting read…

Having posted a few things to YouTube myself, I am glad to see that the number of UGS videos has exploded in the last few weeks.  Here’s a few that I found recently that you might be interested in: NX5 demos Solid Edge demos It’s really nice to see this catch on for our products,…

Now this is a novel technique to print in 3D:“Chemical origami” shrinks 2D discs into 3D objects (February 2007) – News – PhysicsWeb Most approaches rely on an addition or subtraction method.  This one is more focused on morphing.  The potentially interesting part about the morphing approach is that it would allow you to create…

While not an answer yet, they’e at least set a date for themselves to have an answer on whether Siemens can go ahead with the acquisition of UGS.  I wonder who enforces a penalty if they miss that date 😉 EU inquiry deadline into Siemens buy of UGS set for April 30 – Forbes.com
