CUDA.jl 5.5 is a minor release that comes with a couple of small improvements and new features.

The only important change is that the minimal required Julia version has been bumped to 1.10, in anticipation of it becoming the next LTS release.

JuliaSim: Advanced Model-Based Engineering with AI integration and automation.

Model-Based Engineering (MBE) has long been fundamental and integral to product development. However, traditional tools often fall short in meeting the demands of modern engineering challenges.  Many tools focus entirely on providing an easy to use graphical environment but don’t take into account the need to version control the work products, trigger CI/CD pipelines and deploy the analysis capabilities into the field.  JuliaSim has been designed as a response to this dilemma to bridge the gap between GUI, code and deployment. It offers a unique platform that combines the intuitiveness of graphical modeling with the flexibility of code based development while offering the ability to completely automate the process of deployment, analysis and code generation.
