RTDA Flowtracer/NC ™
With today's ever-changing design challenges, managers must constantly make decisions on how to use limited budgets to keep the design environment running as efficiently as possible. Often the decision to purchase additional tools is based on limited data. Unlike license managers that report usage statistics per license with no knowledge of the queuing system, Flowtracer/NC provides complete and accurate metrics that include:

• Unmet demand - how often were there not enough resources (software or hardware) to go around
• Wait time - how often was a resource available, but in the queue waiting for another resource to become available (i.e. a software license waiting for an option license or for a computer with enough memory)
• No demand - how often were resources sitting idle because of no demand

Armed with this information, managers can:

• Determine which resources to purchase (or let go) to boost efficiency
• Create fair charge-back policies between departments that share resources
• Determine precise resource costs per project
• Know how best to use on-demand, short-term licenses
• Negotiate EDA license agreements with complete data on resource usage
