One of these deals with development of a NPP digital model, which can optimize NPP operations, he said. The project is being implemented in cooperation with IBM. Other projects, including those for knowledge management, are at the stage of discussion. Declee also noted that the technologies developed using Dassault Systèmes’ software were used at three NPPs under construction by Rosatom: two in Russia and one abroad.
