Closing the Silicon Realization Gap: From Static DFM to Governance for Lifecycle (GFL)
Beyond Tool Interoperability: The Emerging Governed Convergence Problem in Semiconductor Design
The semiconductor industry has spent decades optimizing tools. Today, however, the central challenge is no longer whether individual tools are powerful enough. The real question is whether increasingly specialized tools, domains, models, and organizations can still converge coherently into a manufacturable, reliable,… Read More
