Posted on: Friday, 13 February 2004, 06:00 CST

Ansoft Corporation (Nasdaq:ANST) today released HFSS(TM) v9 for the Sun Solaris(R) and HP/UX 64-bit operating systems.(a) ¶ HFSS v9 for UNIX(R) provides a number of larger installations with continued support for existing clusters of high-end UNIX 64-bit compute servers. As with all releases of HFSS, this version provides cross-platform support between UNIX and PC hardware, enabling a mixed environment of compute hardware within a single corporate network. ¶"The seamless cross-platform interoperability is important for UNIX-based HFSS users because they typically have a mixed compute environment including desktop PCs," said Brad Brim, Product Marketing Manager, HFSS. "This availability introduces cross-platform users to an entirely new level of electromagnetic-based design-flow automation."

¶ Availability and Upgrades: ¶ HFSS v9 for UNIX is available immediately. The software includes a variety of training materials, such as Getting Started guides and a multimedia training CD. Product-upgrade training materials also are available for download from Ansoft's Online Technical Support (OTS) Web site or as an advanced-level training session at the 2004 HFSS Users Workshop in Los Angeles, California, February 19-20 (http://www.ansoft.com/hfworkshop04).
