• The Wolfram Edge
• How Wolfram Compares
• Key Capabilities

Wolfram technologies include thousands of built-in functions that let you:

• Design and simulate manufacturing processes with Wolfram SystemModeler
• Develop statistical process control measures
• Design and analyze supply chains
• Design custom engineering components that adhere to tight tolerances
• Develop computer simulations of industrial engineering systems
• Improve manufacturing process efficiencies using lean manufacturing techniques
• Implement quality management methodologies, such as Six Sigma
• Develop production schedules and establish inventory levels
• Automatically compute design quantities, including closed-loop transfer functions, PID parametrizations and more
• Predict failure of components

Does your current tool set have these advantages?

• Built-in functionality for constrained and unconstrained optimization, statistical analysis and computation, simulation, curve fitting and a range of other application areas
  Matlab requires the purchase of multiple toolboxes
• Instant, interactive interface construction using a single command to visualize your simulations, examine prototype sensitivity to parameter changes and more
  Unique to Wolfram technologies
• Easy-to-use parallel computing capabilities for solving computation- or data-intensive problems on multicore computers or grids
  Extensive programming is required to parallelize processes in all other systems
  Matlab requires an extra-cost toolbox
• Automated precision control and arbitrary-precision numerics produce accurate results for large-scale finite element analysis and other problems
  Matlab relies on finite-precision numerics, which can cause serious errors due to lack of precision
• Highly optimized superfunctions analyze your equations and automatically select the right algorithms to get you accurate results quickly—sometimes switching mid-calculation for further optimization
  Non-Mathematica computation systems make you analyze your equations manually to determine which function to apply—for example, where in Mathematica you use NDSolve, in Matlab you must correctly choose among ode45, ode23, ode113, ode15s, bvp4c, pdepe and so on or risk wrong answers
• Complete workflow, from simulation to analysis to typeset document or interactive slide show, in a single document
  Unique to Wolfram technologies
