How To Navigate The Open Source Risk Landscape
By Synopsys - 01 Jul, 2019 - Comments: 0

Open source use isn’t risky, but unmanaged use of open source is. Open source software forms the backbone of nearly every application in every industry. Chances are that includes the applications your company develops as well. If you can’t produce an accurate inventory of the licenses, versions, and patch status of the open source components in your applications, it’s time to assess yo... » read more

Enabling The RISC-V Ecosystem
By Tom Anderson - 27 Jun, 2019 - Comments: 0

Earlier this year, OneSpin’s Sven Beyer discussed the emerging RISC-V processor and some of its verification challenges. He stated that “RISC-V is hot and stands at the beginning of what may be a major shift in the industry.” In the few intervening months, it has become even more apparent that RISC-V is fundamentally changing system-on-chip (SoC) development. Dozens of commercial and open... » read more

Moore Open Source Coming
By Brian Bailey - 30 May, 2019 - Comments: 0

The sunsetting of Moore's Law is creating some interesting ripples throughout the EDA and IP industries. No longer is the low-risk path defined by a migration to the next node. Most companies cannot afford it and don’t need it. Neither can their competitors. Suddenly, they have to do more with less, or at least the same amount. Consider just a few things that are changing today: Stick... » read more

Static application security testing (SAST) is an essential part of any secure development workflow. But not all SAST tools are created equal. It’s crucial that you weigh your options carefully when choosing a SAST tool to avoid unnecessary costs in the future. This white paper compares open source and enterprise SAST solutions and provides relevant information to help you select the option th... » read more

The Challenge Of RISC-V Compliance
By Brian Bailey - 28 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0

The open-source RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA) continues to gain momentum, but the flexibility of RISC-V creates a problem—how do you know if a RISC-V implementation fits basic standards and can play well with other implementations so they all can run the same ecosystem? In addition, how do you ensure that ecosystem development works for all implementations and that all cores that ... » read more

Open Source in M&A Due Diligence
By Synopsys - 06 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0
