CEA-List developed the HAllo analog I&C allocator to assist engineers with this task. HAllo, which draws on CEA-List know-how in both modeling and operational research, uses a description of functions and electronic circuits to calculate the allocation of circuit components to boards. The solution was validated and transferred to Framatome, where it was integrated into the ERP engineering chain. Framatome worked with its engineering teams to determine user protocols for the tools and initiate a change management process. The company now has a versatile solution for optimizing its security systems.
