Abstract
Systems and methods include preparing instances of physics modeling applications for use over a computer network based on expected use by a user of a modeling system. A server system remote from the user is configured to implement the acts of (i) determining an expected usage of the physics modeling applications, (ii) pre-launching an inactive application server and pre-loading an inactive instance of physics modeling applications, that meets pre-determined statistical usage criteria, onto the pre-launched application server, and (iii) sending at least a portion of the instance of the physics modeling application, wherein the pre-launching and/or pre-loading provide a reduced startup time of the pre-launched inactive application servers and the pre-loaded instance of the physics modeling application.
