ICEM, the leading provider of styling, high-quality surface modelling and rendering solutions and Intel Corporation, the world’s largest chip maker, today announced a new performance breakthrough in design visualization software for use in the design development of a wide range of manufactured products. ICEM and Intel collaborated to optimize the leading performance of the Quad-core Intel Xeon Processor 5400 Series with ICEM solutions in order to benefit from the latest technological improvements such as high clock frequency & fast and huge bandwidth. Those improvements will accelerate the adoption of Intel technologies by ICEM for its leading applications & developments.
??Designing real time high quality rendering & modelling software has always been a challenge. With the advent of complex and ultra realistic 3D models, the computational horsepower requirement has dramatically increased. Optimizing ICEM Surf, widely used by most automotive OEMs as key component of design workflow, take advantage of the high speed & huge bandwidth of the new Quad-core Intel??? Xeon??? processor 5400 Series allows to improve the performance by 13% comparing to the previous generation of Quad-core Intel Xeon processor with similar clock frequency?? said Ingo Stadel, Principal Graphic Software Development Engineer, ??and up to 36% with Intel Xeon E542 Series at 2.8GHz??.
With all the new technologies introduced by the Quad-core Intel??? Xeon??? processor 5400 Series, the implementation of previously intractable algorithms becomes a reality leading to a major breakthrough in video quality.
??Not to mention, working with Intel underpins ICEMs position as leading provider for design solutions. It is considered as testimony for our ability to deliver technology ahead of their time?? said Doris Hopert, Director ICEM R&D.
