whitepaper Pratt & Whitney's Very Visible, Highly Successful Engineering Data Transformation2007-11-01 Siemens
  Pratt & Whitney (P&W) has built more than half of the 34,000 commercial aircraft engines in service today and more than 40,000 military engines. To meet ambitious cost and cycle time reductions targeted by top management, Pratt & Whitney's engineering organization needed to revitalize its handling of product data. Rather than develop the new CM system in house, P&W decided to evaluate commercial product lifecycle management (PLM) software. By that time, the company had standardized on Unigraphics (now called NX) as its product development system and replaced multiple proprietary Configuration Management (CM) methods with single system built on Teamcenter software; establish NX software models as sole product description.

whitepaper Aerospace Dynamics International Uses NX CAM to Speed NC Programming for Large, Complex Parts Produced on High-Speed, Five-Axis Machines2007-11-01 Siemens
  Aerospace Dynamics International (ADI) manufactures large components such as aircraft wing spars and bulkheads and panels for the space shuttle's external fuel tanks. Aerospace Dynamics International no longer has time to code intricate machine motion by hand, yet it still needs the control that hand-programming provides. The installation of seven seats of NX CAM gave ADI the combination - fast programming and complete motion control - needed to meet customers' tight delivery schedules. NX CAM's developer, Siemens PLM Software, pioneered High-Speed Machining (HSM) technology, working in conjunction with machine tool and controller manufacturers. For jobs that require HSM on five-axis machines, NX CAM has become ADI's software of choice.

whitepaper The Evolution of Job Scheduling: CA's Approach to Workload Automation2007-11-01 IDG (International Data Group)
  This IDC White Paper presents an overview of key concerns driving IT management and how they translate into needs that can be addressed through modern approaches to job scheduling and workload automation. The paper traces evolutionary trends in job scheduling software, which is growing from traditional batch job schedulers to cross-platform and event-driven capabilities. It also explores the role of job schedulers in providing automation capabilities. The White Paper examines CA's workload automation strategy, which is based on the evolutionary development of CA's portfolio of job scheduling and management software tools into a comprehensive workload automation solution. The objective of CA Workload Automation is to help IT organizations optimize real-time performance of complex business workloads across diverse IT infrastructures, including both mainframes and distributed systems.
