SAN JOSE, Calif. — Enabling silicon intellectual property (IP) integration is as significant a quality concern as designing bug-free IP in the first place, said panelists at the International ...

An increase in the number and complexity of IP blocks, coupled with changing architectures and design concerns, are driving up the need for new tools that can enable, automate, and optimize ...

Work remains, but the path to a single network is getting clearer. Exempla Healthcare’s three-hospital network uses an OC-3 ring to link about 15 buildings in the Denver area. “We run 225 different ...

“Integrating IP is hard. When someone tries to integrate hard or soft IP they always run into issues” according to Manoj Bhatnagar, Senior Director, Field Delivery and Support, Atrenta Inc. I spoke to ...

Designers must deal with multiple simulation domains, floorplanning, IP packaging, and other key issues. As CMOS technologies scale to greater densities, the ability to design and integrate complex ...

The system integration challenge is evolving, but existing tools and methods are not keeping up with the task. New tools and flows are needed to handle global concepts, such as power and thermal, that ...

15 years ago, the foundations for Scalable service-Oriented MiddlewarE over IP (SOME/IP) were established — few could have predicted the pivotal role it would play in automotive communication. Today, ...

When considering the challenges posed by IP integration, it's not all about IP packaging standards, bus protocols, clock and frequency domains, and imposition of an interconnect fabric. It's also ...
