"Lockheed Martin, the world leader in the design of aerospace and defense technologies, selected Foresight as its corporate standard system engineering architecture analysis tool for discrete event simulation. To earn the banner of 'Lockheed Martin Preferred Tool', Foresight won the rigorous 'Ten Step' procurement process for this tool category as conducted by the Systems Engineering Subcouncil of the Lockheed Martin engineering process improvement program."

"I recently have been able to compare our Foresight model results with actual CNI hardware in the lab. The results from the lab are correlating nicely so far. The lab data correlates much better than I would have hoped, actually. I generally worry about microsecond to microsecond performance comparisons (since the model cannot be as complex as the actual system). Also, it's [very difficult to get] everything configured correctly to do a fair "apples to apples" test. Generally [the test team doesn't] have too much flexibility to set up sophisticated tests. However, we did a fairly high resolution model of our hardware (and software) components, so it tracks rather well when looking at critical latencies."

In a nutshell, we're engineers building tools for engineers.
Our extensive experience designing chips, software and complex systems gives us a true appreciation for the value of interacting with a working virtual prototype. We wanted a tool that allowed us to visualize our systems with complete awareness of both functionality and resource constraints. We needed an environment that would allow us to produce a detailed design specification from abstract requirements. The tools had to help us make good design decisions and tradeoffs early in the process.
We built the Foresight Systems M&S Resource Aware Modeling and Simulation (RAMS) tools to solve the design problems that present the most demanding requirements for functionality, performance, power consumption and asymmetric multi-processing.
RAMS has been in production use for more than fifteen years and has been key in the deployment of complex systems across a range of applications, including: software defined radio (JTRS), avionics, missile flight control, Future Combat Systems, satellite networking, multi-processor synthetic aperture radar systems, and embedded control applications.
Foresight's RAMS environment creates a working virtual prototype that fully reflects the operational realities of your system. You will be able to explore design alternatives, make appropriate tradeoffs, validate interfaces, verify behavior, confirm performance parameters and begin system test development all before committing to a specific physical implementation, and bearing the very real costs.
During analysis, you will be interacting with a composite model formed from mapping functional behavior onto your resource platform. By capturing design intent at this level, our environment provides a bridge between your system requirements and a detailed design that you can implement with confidence.
The RAMS environment combines a powerful, yet intuitive, graphical modeling language with a high performance discrete event simulator that executes your model. These powerful analysis tools allow you to visualize your working system, complete with resource dependencies & constraints and a full set of functional behaviors.
We recognize that just another powerful tool may not be enough to revolutionize your design cycle. Foresight’s expert service professionals are available to minimize your time to full productivity by developing models, providing training, supporting your design team and even performing the analysis at your direction.
