Dr. Kalyanmoy Deb, the leading global authority on

exclusive consultant to Red Cedar Technology to help drive the
advancement of HEEDS. Dr. Deb's latest research on improving the
distribution of competing designs along Pareto fronts is now

TREK
Bicycle Is Leading the Performance Revolution
Trek Bicycle has
been breaking barriers of innovation ever since its inception in
1976. The addition of HEEDS to their R&D process certainly
emboldens the commitment in pushing the boundaries of cycling engineering
even further. Mio Suzuki of Trek will showcase HEEDS applications
at next week's STAR
Global Conference.

HEEDS
Drives Marine Hull Design
Cargo ship
design requires a challenging balancing act between construction
costs and operational efficiency. Naval architects strive to
minimize hull drag while maximizing propulsive efficiency with
limits on cavitation, erosion, and up-front material costs.
Damian Tatum of Downey Engineering will discuss how they
use HEEDS to automatically drive hull form geometry changes at
next week's STAR
Global Conference in San Diego, California.
