Timeline

CORTIME was founded based on an idea originated from a Ph.D. project from Thøger Kari Jensen at Aalborg University in 2013.{{Cite web|url=https://ownr.dk/companies/timeline/34893764|title=Tidslinje for Apiosoft ApS|website=ownr|language=da-DK|access-date=2018-10-19}}{{Cite web|url=https://thehub.dk/jobs/company/cortime|title=CORTIME|website=thehub.dk|language=da|access-date=2018-10-19}} In 2016, Rasmus Høtoft Sørensen joined Apiosoft as CEO.{{Cite web|url=https://solidworksworld.lanyonevents.com/2017/connect/attendeeDetail.ww?PERSON_ID=B7621763ACF537E70CFF30D8AB70C0F8|title=SOLIDWORKS World 2017|website=solidworksworld.lanyonevents.com|access-date=2018-10-19|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170320165057/https://solidworksworld.lanyonevents.com/2017/connect/attendeeDetail.ww?PERSON_ID=B7621763ACF537E70CFF30D8AB70C0F8|archive-date=2017-03-20|url-status=dead}}

About

CORTIME integrates with SolidWorks CAD program{{Cite web|url=https://www.solidworks.com/sw/support/systemrequirements.html|title=SOLIDWORKS and SW PDM System Requirements|website=www.solidworks.com|language=en|access-date=2018-10-20}} with the optimization algorithms that enables users to optimize their designs automatically. Users can download CORTIME software from Apiosoft's website. Engineers can include several variables in their calculations while making it faster. It will help engineers in developing turbines blades, ship rotors, light sources, refrigeration systems and many more.{{Cite web|url=https://patentscope.wipo.int/search/en/detail.jsf?docId=WO2015086582&tab=PCTBIBLIO&maxRec=1000|title=A COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED METHOD FOR GENERATING AND VISUALIZING DATA STRUCTURES|last=Kari|first=JENSEN, Thøger|date=2015-06-19|website=patentscope.wipo.int|access-date=2018-10-19}}{{Cite news|url=https://markedsmodningsfonden.dk/cortime-optimeringssoftware-til-avanceret-design|title=CorTime - optimeringssoftware til avanceret design|last=Anonym|date=2016-08-20|work=Markedsmodningsfonden|access-date=2018-10-19|language=da}}
