The Transformation Model for IP-Centric Design
Semiconductor designs have been progressing over time to address wider product varieties and designs with increasing complexity. Organizations have been addressing intense time-to-market pressures by leveraging globally dispersed team resources. The project-centric design methodology, which once worked well with … Read More
Chiplets and IP and the Trust Problem
Perforce recently hosted a webinar on “IP Lifecycle Management for Chiplet-Based SoCs”, presented by Simon Butler, the GM for the Methodics IPLM BU. The central theme was trust, for IPs as much as chiplets. How can an IP/chiplet consumer trust that what they receive has not been compromised somewhere in the value chain from initial… Read More
Insights into DevOps Trends in Hardware Design
Periodically I like to check in on the unsung heroes behind the attention-grabbing world of design. I’m speaking of the people responsible for the development and deployment infrastructure on which we all depend – version control, testing, build, release – collectively known these days as DevOps (development operations). … Read More
IP Lifecycle Management for Chiplet-Based SoCs
Chiplet-based System-on-Chips (SoCs) are becoming increasingly popular in the semiconductor industry due to their potential to improve design efficiency, increase performance, and reduce costs. While chiplets are seen as a way to reduce the cost of innovation, they introduce a lot of challenges too. Packaging, interconnect… Read More
