Requesting update to the SimulationX Wiki page

I have written down the most important and pressing updates for the page SimulationX. these summarises the recent purchase of ESI Group by Keysight Technologies along with the latest updates on the software. Below is the proposal. Can you please have it updated? We need the updated wiki page upto date to manage the overall messaging and positioning of the product. thank you.
- The infobox needs an update: Developer is now Keysight Technologies (because ESI Group who owned SimulationX was bought by Keysight in 2025.) ^ The latest stable release is Version 2025.1 (4.7.2.82805, DEC 2025) ^ ^. Current product pages is ^
- In the intro para, please include that SimulationX is now developed and sold by Keysight Technologies as a part of their Design Engineering & CAE software portfolio ˆ
- History: Please include the PR for last two acquisitions with the latest being by Keysight Technologies. ESI Acquires ITIGmBH & Keysight acquires ESI
- Libraries: in this section can you mention a summary of all the libraries supported. These are domain-specific libraries for mechanics and multibody systems, power transmission, electrical engineering, hydraulics and pneumatics, thermal-fluid systems, and torsional vibration analysis. ^ this page summarises all the libraries in the current production versions
- Interfaces: in this section pls update the link to ‘Unigraphics/NX’ -> Siemens NX. I guess it is now part of Siemens.
- In the FEA/FEM please include PAM-Crash / VPS. This is supported by the research paper titled “FMI Based Integration of System Simulation and FEM for efficient Simulation of Realistic Crash Scenarios” presented at the NAFEMS World Congress 2023 (refer)
- Can you add a new section : Licensing In this section we need to mention a modular, the token based licensing model for SimulationX which helps users of all sizes to use specific functional modules and domain libraries according to their requirements. ^

Proposal to split Grafana (open source software) and Grafana Labs (company)

Potential additional reliable sources

I was hoping to engage the right group about evaluating the reliability of howtogeek.com and thenewstack.io, then getting the resulting consensus added to the right place (e.g. WP:RS). I couldn't find a WP:RS-style list in the Computing nor Software projects, but I did find a smaller list in the FOSS task force. Is there something that I'm missing, or is WP:RS it?

I found a previous discussion on HTG here, so not sure if I should be just starting a new topic there, or if I should be engaging members of this Project (or a sub-project) first? WidgetKid chat me 20:35, 18 January 2026 (UTC)

Scope clarification: cloud computing

Cloud computing is barely referenced within this WikiProject, despite being a significant part of modern computing. I actively contribute to articles related to cloud computing, cloud service providers and I would like to participate in WikiProject Computing with a focus on these areas. I am considering proposing that cloud computing be explicitly included in the project scope, to better reflect current editorial practice. Before doing so, I would like to ask whether this requires prior consensus on the talk page or whether a direct edit would be appropriate. Azarboon (talk) 09:19, 23 January 2026 (UTC)

I think that can be added boldly and I have done so. If there is enough interest, we can even build a taskforce for it. ~Kvng (talk) 14:47, 1 February 2026 (UTC)

Invitation to discussion about inclusion of build list tables at Windows 11 version history

There is a discussion I started at Talk:Windows 11 version history § Not a changelog, regarding whether or not the article should have lists of every individual Windows 11 patch/build.

Asking for Help With AfD Denodo

Good Day Computing Community,

My article Denodo has been nominated for deletion based on insufficient reliable sources. However, I feel that this is an unfair nomination, as I have provided numerous reliable, independent sources to verify the article. I have voted in the deletion discussion, stating sources that have been used for notability, amongst others. I would appreciate any input on this matter. Either areas for improvement in the article that could be flagging it for deletion, or edits directly to the article that could help keep it on Wikipedia, and also positive votes, as I believe that it is a notable company that should be on Wikipedia.

Thanks so much! Van1985 (talk) 09:15, 9 March 2026 (UTC)

Traces?

All of the operating systems in the line from OS/360 to z/OS have trace facilities. Initially there was only a wrap-around trace table in storage, but subsequent trace facilities allowed recording to external media. Currently z/OS supports

System trace
An augmented version of the trace table in OS/360, the system trace table contains events recognized by z/Architecture as well as events recognized by z/OS. ABEND dumps and an SVC dumps optionally capture the trace table. Some of these events are:
  1. Dispatches
  2. Interrupts
  3. I/O operations
  4. Program Call (PC) instruction
Generalized trace facility (GTF)
Introduced in OS/360, captures more events than the SVC table and includes more details. ABEND and SVC dumps optionally capture the GTF buffer, but do not capture events from the GTF output medium. AMDPRDMP and later IPCS include formatting of GTF entries.
Component trace (CT)
Similar to GTF.

I was expecting to see articles on instruction traces and system traces; they are important tools for problem diagnosis on systems that have them. I'm only familiar with the traces on IBM operating systems, but they exist on non-IBM systems as well. Is anybody in the project working on articles covering them? -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

Request for review: HIPAA article edit request (Security Rule compliance tools)

I have a pending edit request on Talk:Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act to add a brief, neutrally worded paragraph about security risk assessment tools to the Security Rule section. I have a disclosed conflict of interest (see User:Jgellatly) and am following WP:PAID guidelines.

The HIPAA article is rated B-class under WikiProject Computing. The proposed addition would improve coverage of how the Security Rule's risk analysis requirements are implemented in practice, citing the ONC/OCR Security Risk Assessment Tool, NIST SP 800-66r2, and HHS OCR enforcement guidance. The text does not name any specific commercial product.

I received initial feedback from Bluerasberry and revised accordingly, but the review has stalled since March 4. The edit request backlog currently has 404 pending requests. If any WikiProject Computing member is willing to review the proposal, feedback would be very welcome. Jgellatly (talk) 05:40, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
