The point of DATA MANAGMENT
• “STORE” the DATA• “SEARCH AND FIND” the DATA by BROWSING or QUERING
“Whatever is necessary to find the requested data back”
FUNDAMENTALS
• Use a central repository (DATABASE)
• Querying: Describe the DATA with the minimal SET OF META-DATA that enable the queries (searches) that you to implement.
• Browsing: Organize the DATA with logical/hierarchical structure that enable to browse it and find the desiderate data.

Useful for data managementiFilter for the search engine crawler
We have a mean to access and index CAE specific information

SharePoint SDM
Suggested Site Structure
Each Simulation Domain has its own team site
Each Simulation Domain Team Site has:
1)Simulation Report List
2)Simulation Task List
3)Simulation Library List
1) Simulation Report
• It is a shared best practice (especially in R&D) to report the process used to obtain the results of a given simulation.
• If the report is well done is used as reference by less experienced analyst to perform the same kind of simulation. (valuable knowledge)
• For repetitive task usually the reporting can be automated (at least partially) with scripting and post processing tool.
1) Simulation Report
• Given the fact that a report contain valuable knowledge we want to be able to access its contents.
• As plain text file the knowledge is completely unstructured > we can create ‘zone’ of the document that can be exposed as metadata [e.g Target of the Simulation (text), Target achieved (yes/no) ]
• The reason of structuring the report is simply to provide meaningful search refiner filter > Easier to drill down the results and find a specific item.
1) Simulation Report
• Configuration of the SDM is essentially reduced to the creation of 1 to N Simulation Domain Specific Word Template Report.
• For each simulation domain there must be a “Team Responsible” in charge of the definition of the template and maintenance of the his/her team site.
• Open XML API > We have already methods to access programmatically the report and its content (zip). Most post processing tools already allow to automate some part of report.
• For FEA/CFD Report Template in the first page it would be nice to insert a VCollab file instead of static picture.
1) Site Columns
Set of common site columns to all simulation reports
Project (choice), Target Description (test), Target Achived (yes/no),Device Power (int), Drive Frame Size (choice)

Ontolica Search Preview ADD-ON• http://
www.surfray.com/hit-highlighting-a-relevant-pages.html• http://www.surfray.com/fh-document-preview.html
ConceptSearching ADD-ON• Automatically classify documents against Taxonomies• This eliminates manual metadata tagging by end users
and provides comprehensive and consistent tagging of documents.
Scalability Price Note
Microsoft Search Server Express
10 M document
FREE Basically same functionality as SP Server. Associated with SP foundations > COST ZERO solution
SharePoint Server Search
100 M document
4000€(SP Server License + 80€/seat CAL)
Can be extended to become as good as FAST with > Ontolica (?€) > Concept Classifier (?€)
FAST for SharePoint
infinite 22K$ starting point for single license.
The real plus is scalability. The price reported might exclude many other cost.
Google Search Appliance
infinite 0.5M for 30K$2- 3 years leaseof their server
Looks expensive > However No hidden cost
DS Exalead ??? ??? Hopefully it will be tuned to index CAD CAE specific file format (besides DS)
Sharepoint VS Commercial SDM
Sharepoint FREE or
4K€ + 100 per seat
