How PCI Express 6.0 Can Enhance Bandwidth Hungry High Performance Computing SoCs

What do genome sequencing, engineering modeling and simulation, and big data analytics have in common? They’re all bandwidth-hungry applications with complex data workloads. High-performance computing (HPC) systems deliver the parallel processing capabilities to generate detailed and valuable insights from these applications.

Editor’s Note: Siemens EDA recently introduced a comprehensive hardware-assisted verification system comprised of hardware, software and system verification that streamlines and optimizes verification cycles while helping reduce verification cost. What follows is an edited version of an interview Verification Expert… Read More


Cadence Dynamic Duo Upgrade Debuts

Cadence Dynamic Duo Upgrade Debuts
by Bernard Murphy on 04-08-2021 at 6:00 am

Dynamic Duo min

Cadence calls their hardware acceleration platforms, Palladium Z2 for fast pre-silicon hardware debug and Protium X2 for fast pre-silicon software validation, their Dynamic Duo. With good reason. Hardware acceleration is now fundamental to managing the complexity of verification and validation for large systems, hardware… Read More

Annapurna Labs and Altair Team up for Rapid Chip Design in the Cloud

This is a story of strategic recursion. Yes, a fancy term. I just made up. If you’re not into algorithm development you can Google recursion, but the simple explanation is we’re talking about using the cloud to design the cloud. The story begins with Annapurna Labs, a fabless chip company focused on bringing innovation to cloud infrastructure,… Read More

VC Formal graphic min

Pratik Mahajan, Synopsys VC Formal R&D Group Director, kicked off an absorbing event featuring talks from multiple customers in Europe. He spent some time on formal signoff, an important topic that I’m still not sure is fully understood. Answering the questions “OK, we did a bunch of formal checking but how does that affect… Read More


How Mentor became Siemens EDA

How Mentor became Siemens EDA
by Daniel Nenni on 04-05-2021 at 6:00 am

Messy dog food

When I started in EDA the big three were Daisy, Mentor and Valid (DMV as we called them). Then came Synopsys in 1986 followed by Cadence, which was a clever merger between ECAD (Dracula DRC) and Solomon Design. Daisy and Valid were pushed aside and then there were, “Three dogs hovering over one bowl of dog food, not a pretty site.”… Read More


The Quest for Bugs: “Deep Cycles”

Verification is a resource limited ‘quest’ to find as many bugs as possible before shipping. It’s a long, difficult, costly search, constrained by cost, time and quality. For a multi-billion gate ASIC,

The search space is akin to a space search; practically infinite

In this article we talk about the quest for bugs at the system-level,Read More

website banner with date 1

As a long-time member of the EDA community, I really believe in user groups. EDA tools are complicated beasts, with many options and different ways to use them, and they are constantly evolving. Users interact with their local field applications engineers (FAEs) and sometimes corporate AEs (product specialists) as well on a regular… Read More


Bouncing off the Walls – How Real-Time Radar is Accelerating the Development of Autonomous Vehicles

Bouncing off the Walls – How Real-Time Radar is Accelerating the Development of Autonomous Vehicles

RealTimeRadar 5Radars thumbnail 1

In the race to get people out of the driver’s seat, the developers of autonomous vehicles (AV) and advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) have gone off road and into the virtual world.

Using simulation to design, train and validate the brains behind self-driving cars — the neural networks of sensors and systems that perceive… Read More
