A device may include communication logic to receive a request to perform an activity on behalf of a client, where the activity is related to a primary application and a secondary application. The communication logic may send a response that allows the client to perform the activity when the client is authorized. The device may include evaluation logic to determine whether the client is related to the primary license and to determine whether a secondary license related to the secondary application is available. The evaluation logic may allocate the available secondary license to the client for use with the secondary application when the secondary license is available. The evaluation logic may authorize the client to perform the activity when the secondary license is allocated to the client.

Parameter based operation

Methods and systems for translating models generated in one modeling environment into models that can be used in other modeling environments are disclosed. Because models are created using different data formats in different modeling environments, models generated in one modeling environment are generally incompatible with other models in other modeling environments. Therefore, the present invention provides a neutral data format that can store information on models generated in one modeling environment, and that can be used by other modeling environments to create their models. The present invention may export models created in one modeling environment into the neutral data format. The neutral data format may subsequently be imported into other modeling environments in which new models are generated using the information contained in the neutral data format. The present invention also provides animation of the newly generated models by animation clients via open animation interfaces. The open animation interfaces support multiple animation clients at a simultaneous time.

Translating of geometric models into block diagram models

The present invention improves in one aspect the accuracy, efficiency, and robustness of fixed-step solvers when simulating a physical system that does not change in energy at the critical event. The present invention uses the energy of the error as the figure of merit in finding the first state of the system under the new constraints. The present invention enables a fixed-step solver to be more robust even when the critical event falls between two time samples. The present invention may also be applied to variable-step solvers. Moreover, the present invention may also be used to simulate a physical system when the energy changes at the critical event in the physical system.

State projection via minimization of error energy
