"Can this thing be changed on its own?"

He Ming, who was next to him, was stunned when he heard this.

Although he has used all kinds of engineering software, he has never heard of users who can modify packaged software by themselves.

There may be some technical means to achieve this, but it is clearly not feasible from a legal point of view.

You must know that TORCH Multiphysics is not a foreign software that has not been registered in China, and you can use the user agreement as waste paper.

They are "typical examples of China's development of intellectual economy" that have been specially named and cared for by the above, and we still need to respect them.

"Of course, it is impossible to directly change the encapsulated software ontology, and the user agreement does not allow it."

Chang Haonan first waved his hand to deny it, but then changed his words:

"But as I just said, dynamically adjusting the rules of the model based on changes in the boundaries of objects is a new idea for unstructured mesh generation that does not require modifications to the software itself."

"TORCH Multiphysics was designed with the specific needs of our users in mind, and we couldn't update the version in real time in a short period of time, so we reserved an interface that could be highly customized."

Custom Interface...... What does it mean? When Yao Gong trained us before, he didn't seem to mention this part? ”

He Ming felt as if he was an outsider, unable to squeeze into the world of the other two.

But just now, I just didn't understand the specific technical explanation, and now I don't even understand the noun itself.

"From this point of view, TORCH Multiphysics has almost unlimited possibilities in theory, as a tool that can be used as an augmentation or modification module to implement what the software doesn't have but we want to do."

Yao Mengna explained beside her.

"As for why the training didn't mention ......"

Speaking of this, she glanced at He Ming with meaningful eyes:

"This kind of module needs to be designed and written from scratch, and it can only be done by people who are very familiar with mathematical theories such as programming languages, algorithms, and solving high-dimensional nonlinear partial differential equations, so ......"

"Understood."

Hearing this, He Ming hurriedly nodded, signaling that Yao Mengna already understood.

If you go any further, it's not very decent.

After all, lies don't hurt, the truth is the quick knife.

"In the future, with the improvement of everyone's application level of simulation, the efficiency problem of this large model assembly in blocks will become more and more common, and it will not be your problem."

Chang Haonan thought about it for a while, and felt that it was indeed a bit unreasonable to let users at this stage expand this core function by themselves:

"You put these two parts of the content first, it just so happens that the opinions that have been fed back from all aspects recently are also being analyzed and processed, and after I return to the capital, I will iterate a new version as soon as possible."

"A new version so soon?"

Yao Mengna next to her was also worried about this matter, but when she heard Chang Haonan say this, she still looked at Chang Haonan with a little surprise:

"There are nearly 800 users of this software now, and every major update and iteration is a big project."

As a technician involved in the software development process of TORCH Multiphysics, Yao Mengna still knows the situation of her own products.

In these years, there are still very few online update functions for software, and many computers will not be connected to the Internet for security, so the update can only be carried out offline, so it is impossible to update a small version when there is nothing to do like more than 20 years later.

In particular, many industrial software that pursues stability may not be updated once in a few years or even more than ten years after installation.

(When the author went to a petrochemical company to do a project in 17 years, he found that their production monitoring software was customized from our school, and it has not been updated since 1996, and even two win98 computers were reserved for running this software...... ）

TORCH Multiphysics initially had 744 domestic users and 17 foreign users, and has since added a few more.

Software updates are sometimes more complex than installing new software, and in some cases even require the guidance of technicians from the manufacturer.

In short, it's a hassle to think about.

However, Chang Haonan's understanding of software updates is naturally completely different from that of people in this era.

Especially for numerical computing software used in research and some industrial control software used in production, the iteration speed of the version is fate.

Why did Huaxia never catch up with similar foreign products in industrial software in the previous life?

In large part, this is due to the fact that there is no way to collect enough user data to support efficient version update iterations.

Many manufacturers are limited by this, and they have to install castration industrial control software customized from abroad for their machine tools.

Not to mention the inability to fully release the performance potential of the machine tool itself, it also gave valuable data to foreign companies in vain.

"It's been more than three months, and it's time to iterate it again, especially this kind of key function, not only you, but other brother units may also use it at any time."

Chang Haonan chose a long story short explanation.

Of course, the problem that Yao Mengna said does exist, if nearly 800 users are updated, then the torch company will indeed not be able to withstand this kind of work intensity.

Moreover, the current level of TORCH Multiphysics is strong in the form of dimensionality reduction, and it is necessary to seek a balance between improving user stickiness and ensuring technical barriers.

Some things are still too advanced to display.

So after a pause, he added:

"As for the number of updates, this time, including future updates, will definitely be given priority to those of us who are users of the professional upgrade version, as for the professional version, it needs to be postponed according to the actual situation, or several small versions will be integrated into a major version release."

"Overlapping mesh algorithms based on unstructured meshes, like the ones I just mentioned, are the latest technology, and may even have to be delayed for a few years before they are released to all users."

He Ming, who was standing in the back, was in the back.

As a professional upgrade user, the status is immediately reflected.

This is also why the products of many major Internet manufacturers will treat users at different levels differently.

Don't let the rich brother experience the feeling of being a master, why does the rich brother throw money at you?

The truth on Chang Haonan's side is the same.

Although he doesn't need rich brother to make money, he also needs to improve the recognition of users of the professional upgrade version.

After all, after the release of the official version, the price of the super large cup will probably be more than an order of magnitude higher than that of the large cup.

And there is another point, which can indirectly promote foreign enterprises to take the initiative to carry out technical exchanges and cooperation with Huaxia.

It's like the automotive research institute where Fiat and Jinling Automobile cooperated.

In fact, how can Jinling Automobile have any automotive technology worthy of Fiat's cooperation?

It's just a matter of getting the software licensed in advance in this way.

What do you mean by dotting noodles?

This is called a point with a face.

Besides, Chang Haonan is not doing charity.

He can also benefit from it-

As long as the entire industrial software industry chain is deeply bound, then although the scale of the torch company is not large, it can also have a high voice in all walks of life.

And the right to speak in the torch company is naturally Chang Haonan's right to speak.

"Will this lead to a regular version ...... Uh, I mean, what's the opinion of the Pro users? ”

Although this feeling of being treated differently and enjoying privileges is very refreshing, after all, the boss of the company is still in front of him, He Ming still decided to express his concern for the overall situation.

As a result, Chang Haonan waved his hand indifferently about this:

"On the contrary, only in this way can we show that our software has a transcendent status in the industry and a noble bloodline!"

"Just like the machine tools and equipment you use now, I just saw a few Swiss Starrags in the workshop, and the models they exported to us are the full functional versions?"

He Ming has been working in this industry for almost 30 years, and "breaking through the blockade of foreign technology" is almost the epitome of his entire career.

In this context, it is indeed difficult for him to imagine that he can one day block others in the field of technology.

But now that Chang Haonan mentioned it, he suddenly felt justified:

"That's right, anyway, I heard Yao Gong say that even if it is a professional version for ordinary users, it is much better than similar software such as PEGASUS now......"
