Enterprise Dynamics is a simulation software platform for process modeling that is being developed by INCONTROL Simulation Solutions . It is used to design and implement simulation solutions. With the help of the Enterprise Dynamics (ED) platform, market-specific products were developed to meet customer requirements from various industries. These simulation objects are summarized in different block libraries and can be downloaded from the software directly from the manufacturer's website and used without restriction. Modules are available from the following areas:

  • camp
  • logistics
  • production
  • Material handling
  • Supply chain
  • Airport
  • Public transport
  • Rail transport
  • and much more

history

Enterprise Dynamics is based on the Taylor II simulation software developed by F&H Simulations. In 1998 the newly developed simulation software platform Taylor Enterprise Dynamics was introduced and in 2000 F&H Simulations was bought by the consulting firm Incontrol Business Engineers. The new company was now called INCONTROL Simulation Solutions and Taylor ED was renamed Enterprise Dynamics . At this point in time, F&H Simulations, known today as Flexsim Software Products, went into business for itself and developed its own simulation software called Flexsim. INCONTROL Simulation Solutions revised the license system and has been offering Enterprise Dynamics since April 2014 as part of a subscription license system.

Areas of application

Enterprise Dynamics is used by companies in various industries worldwide, for example in manufacturing and production, warehousing and distribution, material handling and supply chain management:

  • Automotive industry
  • electronics
  • Conveyor technology
  • Airports
  • Shipping ports
  • Rail transport
  • Healthcare
  • Call center
  • Banking & Finance
  • Sports & events
  • Public institutions & services
  • Education

architecture

Enterprise Dynamics is an object-oriented simulation platform combined with an event-driven approach. The user can choose from a library of standard modules (so-called 'atoms') with which the behavior of the corresponding objects can be simulated from reality. To create a model, these building blocks are dragged into a modeling room using the mouse. Certain parameters can be adjusted for each simulation object in order to change the behavior.

Packages

The functionality of Enterprise Dynamics can be expanded by adding various additional modules (packages). Packages can provide additional simulation objects, libraries, connections / interfaces or kernel functionalities. Some of the supplementary modules require customer-specific adaptations by the manufacturer and are only supplied on request. These are therefore not available for direct download. The list of available supplementary modules is constantly being expanded. Below is an excerpt of the currently available packages:

  • Archives Atoms
  • Advanced robots
  • ASRS
  • TransferCar
  • OPC client
  • Developer tools
  • DLL
  • Security
  • SAP
