PALO ALTO, Calif., June 12 /PRNewswire/ -- MLDesign Technologies (MLD) has released a new version of its system-level design platform, MLDesigner that makes it easier and faster to model, simulate and analyze the performance of very large complex systems. MLDesigner 2.7 incorporates core improvements that significantly (by at least a factor of four) reduce the memory consumed by large models. In addition, MLDesigner 2.7 adds support for 64-bit Linux operating systems, which can control significantly more memory than 32-bit Linux operating systems. "Our customers keep building bigger models both to simulate and analyze the design of large complex systems and to create system level executable specifications," said Dr. Colin Mick, MLD CEO. "During the last year the sizes of some of these models has increased to more than 14GB, preventing the execution of these models in 32 bit operating systems." "Improvements introduced in MLDesigner 2.7 will enable our customers to increase the scale and/or detail of very large system models without encountering memory limits or the performance hit of disk/memory swapping," Mick added. In addition to improving memory size and efficiency, the newly released MLDesigner 2.7 adds a new SQL library that provides fast and standardized data bank access from MLDesigner models. MLDesigner 2.7 is compatible with compilers up to GCC 4.1.x. About MLDesigner MLDesigner is a powerful multi-domain platform for modeling, simulating and analyzing the behavior of complex system designs. MLDesigner gives users the ability to explore alternative approaches to architecture and function and to assess the impacts of environment and mission. With MLDesigner, designers and their teams can make critical architectural tradeoffs using performance analysis, develop comprehensive functional specifications, evaluate proposed changes to the architectural and functional specifications and create executable specifications to guide implementation. Customers are using MLDesigner today for projects ranging from the architectural performance analysis of microprocessor designs to the simulation of global military communications systems.
