SAP is already working with Microsoft Corp. to integrate SAP processes with Microsoft’s Windows in a project named Mendocino.
The main technology related goal would be to improve the user experience of the company’s products that suffered since SAP is redesigning its screens to work with the Windows operating system instead of UNIX, because there is nearly 50% less space available on the screen.
SAP will follow in the same tradition featuring a very sophisticated, intuitive and versatile user interface powered by an unmatched analysis engine and design tools for engineers working on transportation, industrial, public works, sports, and other facilities.
From its 3D object based graphical modeling environment, to the wide variety of analysis and design options completely integrated across one powerful user interface, Sap will prove that it will be the most integrated, productive and practical general purpose structural program on the market today.
This intuitive interface will allow creating structural models rapidly and intuitively, without long learning curve delays. Complex models can be generated and meshed with powerful templates built into the interface.
Getting a head start on information, exchanging knowledge and the possibility of making a difference these were the principles, which first brought SAP software users together. By 2006, approximately 1,850 German-language companies, institutions and authorities had enlisted as members.
