Limitations of the WebTop

Certain limitations should be noted prior to using the SIMULIA Execution Engine WebTop. Some of these limitation are by design, while others may be addressed in future releases of the interface.

Client Device Limitations

The WebTop supports the following basic operations:

  • Searching for a model.

  • Loading a model for a run.

  • Overriding parameter values and running the model again.

  • Formulating some components (only DOE, Monte Carlo, Optimization, and Six Sigma are supported).

  • Saving a model (with its parameter overrides) for later use.

  • Running a model.

  • Viewing the results of the model or component run.

Connection Limitations

A SIMULIA Execution Engine connection is required. This limitation is “by-design.” The WebTop is designed to remotely access published models. Without a SIMULIA Execution Engine, you cannot publish models to a library for remote access. All models published in a standalone library are accessible only when you log onto the Isight Design Gateway as the appropriate user. For more information on upgrading your license to allow for a SIMULIA Execution Engine connection, contact your SIMULIA representative.
