INCONTROL Simulation Software offers extended edition


Due to the COVID-19 academic institutions are preparing prolongation of absences and/or campus closures. This license will be an extended version of the standard Free of Charge Enterprise Dynamics® Student Starter Edition but now allowing building larger models up to 100 simulation objects of site! The special edition license is 120 days valid.

 

Bunnik Plants B.V. is a Dutch plant grower that struggled to deliver their products on time to the customer, because of changing customer desired. By using the Enterprise Dynamics software package a simulation model was constructed that aided in the decision making process on how to redesign the daily order delivery strategy. With the model both duration and capacity analyses in relation to transportation were performed that resulted in valuable insights on to what extent the current order delivery process could be altered.

When you are editing 4DScript code, ED automatically inserts the ) when you type (. Sometimes that's nice, but sometimes it isn't. In those cases you can disable the feature by going to the Editor section of the menu and unsetting the AutoBrackets checkbox.

For a long time improving learning and thinking has been an aim of the educational community. Therefore, the VTB project of Midden-Limburg intensively studies the benefits of technological computer applications.The research concerns computer applications which are specified as mindtools. A mindtool is software that delivers knowledge representations of its users mind. The educational value of a mindtool is the possibility to stimulate learners’ generic critical thinking skills while developing content based knowledge and skills. In our opinion, ED is such a mindtool.

INCONTROL is happy to announce the release of Enterprise Dynamics® 10.3! With the latest version of Enterprise Dynamics® we have solved issues, improved usability and introduced new functionalities, all based on customers and business partners feedback.

 

The theory of constraints states that every process has a bottleneck and that this bottleneck is the weak link in the process. Determining the weak spot or bottleneck is vital for any company since it influences the maximum throughput of the process. To determine the maximum throughput as a function of various components, Enterprise Dynamics was used to simulate the impact on this constraint in the process. Determining the impact made it possible to change the process to remove the constraint and increase throughput.

ED Academy gives easy access to all slides, case studies, tutorials and other teaching material of the ED Educational Suite. The case studies with solutions and models are only available to teachers with a valid maintenance contract. To obtain these you need your license number and password. Your license number is a 5 digit number that you can find in the menu option of ED. The password has been sent to you with your ED license. If you have lost your password, please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it , we will verify your identity and send you a new password.

Logging onto the support section gives you access to all software updates and teaching material. If you're looking for the case studies, the Cases section of the ED Academy website gives a convenient overview from which you can download individual cases. For tutorials and other documentation refer to the Documentation section.
In November 2006 I was asked to participate in a pilot around ICT and technology. In de past months there has been regular contact between the company Incontrol, head office VTB Holland and the ICTorganisation Kennisnet/Ictopschool to develop a pilot for the use of the program Enterprise Dynamics in the last years of our primary school.

Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences have been using Enterprise Dynamics for the past years to support their logistic and industrial engineering classes.

A dedicated group of teacher now uses Enterprise Dynamics Virtual Reality (VR Factory) visualization features to introduce the software to their second year students.

 

This graduation project analyses the fully automated (bulk) pallet hall of EDCO Eindhoven B.V. by means of simulation.
