Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7mh28m/global) has announced the addition of the "2013 Report on the International Computer-aided Engineering Market - Forecasts to 2016" report to their offering.

Many large CAE and PLM vendors have started to provide globalized licenses to the end-users in the Global CAE market. As a result, the end-users can buy a bundle of CAE software licenses from anywhere in the world and use it across the world. Additionally, the end-users can utilize the support and services from the respective country's branch offices.

This helps vendors avoid the price differentiation in each region and be able to offer CAE tools at similar prices across the globe. Though a few large PLM vendors are adopting this trend, many CAE vendors are expected to adopt this trend in the future, and this is expected to create a huge change in the vendors' pricing strategy in the market during the forecast period.

According to the report, one of the major drivers in the market is increased need to reduce the time-to-market. CAE helps improve the time-to-market of a product by reducing the product development cycle time and the testing time. It improves the speed of the product design cycle and reduces the product analysis time.

Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is the increased threat from open source CAE software. Many commercial users are adopting several open source CAE tools rather than investing a large amount of money in commercial licenses.
