## 1.2. How Does EKM Work?

EKM provides a broad range of features that can be used to increase the reach of simulation data and the usage of simulation tools in your organization. It enables you to efficiently archive all of your simulation data, and track design development using version control and features such as reports and discussions.

EKM:

- Efficiently manages simulation data

- Reduces the time required to find previous data

- Reduces the need for re-execution if the desired data already exists and is not invalid

- Reduces the usage of invalid data

- Increases collaboration among different teams

- Simplifies the definition and deployment of simulation procedures and best practices

- Enables you to define simulation jobs and execute them over HPC/Clusters

- Enables you to track the progress of remote simulation jobs and visualize/access the jobs interactively

All of this leads to better return on simulation investment for your organization.

EKM‘s rich set of features can be grouped into the following broad categories:

- Data Management
- Collaboration
- Knowledge Capture and Reuse
- Remote Simulation and Visualization
