Since the inception of design-analysis software, there's been a strong connection between the amount of computing power available and the way users mathematically model product designs. Several decades ago, when simulation first started to work its way into industry, there wasn't enough computer power to support the technology's potential. As a result, simulation was mainly limited to validation -- software merely double-checked models to ensure specifications conformed with user needs and intended use. Cloud computing is probably best suited for large analysis problems and complex design optimizations, which can involve dozens or even hundreds of iterations to consider each alternative in the parameter range. Better yet, cloud computing does not affect how engineers already work. After users follow the standard workflow for defining simulation parameters, they simply begin the simulation. The software connects with the cloud and transfers the necessary data. However, users do need to login, both for security and to ensure they can access appropriate resources.
