How Multiphysics Simulation Enables 3D-IC Implementation At The Speed Of Light
By Ansys - 13 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Electronic designers need greater integration densities and faster data transfer rates to meet the increased performance requirements of technologies like 5G/6G, autonomous driving, and artificial intelligence. The semiconductor industry is shifting toward 3D-IC design to keep up with the ever-growing demand for high-performance and power-efficient devices that has outpaced the capabilities o... » read more

Simulation With Taint Propagation For Security Verification
By Synopsys - 13 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Security has arisen as a primary concern for many types of electronic devices. A wide range of malicious agents is constantly probing and looking for weaknesses to try to steal confidential information or exert unauthorized control. The need for security has been well understood and widely adopted in software for years. Techniques such as passwords, multi-factor authentication, and biometric ch... » read more

Complex Safety Mechanisms Require Interoperability And Automation For Validation And Metric Closure
By Siemens EDA - 06 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

The race to autonomous mobility among the automobile manufacturers is driving the evolution of the underlying semiconductors. As a result, semiconductor technologies are moving towards higher densities and lower operating voltages, and this migration is introducing increasing sensitivity to random hardware failures – the failures which occur unpredictably over a semiconductor’s lifetime. Mo... » read more

Optimizing EDA Cloud Hardware And Workloads
By Aharon Etengoff - 04 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Optimizing EDA hardware for the cloud can shorten the time required for large and complex simulations, but not all workloads will benefit equally, and much more can be done to improve those that can. Tens of thousands of GPUs and specialized accelerators, all working in parallel, add significant and elastic compute horsepower for complex designs. That allows design teams to explore various a... » read more

A technical paper titled “Improving the Representativeness of Simulation Intervals for the Cache Memory System” was published by researchers at Complutense University of Madrid, imec, and KU Leuven. Abstract: "Accurate simulation techniques are indispensable to efficiently propose new memory or architectural organizations. As implementing new hardware concepts in real systems is often not... » read more

Formal Verification’s Usefulness Widens
By Ann Mutschler - 31 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

Formal verification is being deployed more often and in more places in chip designs as the number of possible interactions grows, and as those chips are used in more critical applications. In the past, much of formal verification was focused on whether a chip would function properly. But as designs become more complex and heterogeneous, and as use cases change, formal verification is being u... » read more

Design Space Simulator Of Distributed Multi-Chiplet Manycore Architectures For Comm-Intensive Applications
By Technical Paper Link - 04 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled “Muchisim: A Simulation Framework for Design Exploration of Multi-Chip Manycore Systems” was published by researchers at Princeton University. Abstract: "Current design-space exploration tools cannot accurately evaluate communication-intensive applications whose execution is data-dependent (e.g., graph analytics and sparse linear algebra) on scale-out manycore sys... » read more

A Flexible Cluster Tool Simulation Framework With Wafer Batch Dispatching Time Recommendation
By UMC - 19 Dec, 2023 - Comments: 0

The semiconductor manufacturing process consists of multiple steps and is usually time-consuming. Information like the turnaround time of a certain batch of wafers can be very useful for manufacturing engineers. A simulation model of manufacturing process can help predict the performance of manufacturing process efficiently, which is very beneficial to the manufacturing engineers. The simulatio... » read more

The Good Old Days Of EDA
By Brian Bailey - 30 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 5

Nostalgia is wonderful, but there is something about being involved in the formative years of an industry. Few people ever get to experience it, and it was probably one of the most fortuitous events to have happened in my life. Back in the early '80s, little in the way of design automation existed. There were a few gate- and transistor-level simulators, primarily for test and a few 'calculators... » read more

System State Challenges Widen
By Brian Bailey - 30 Nov, 2023 - Comments: 0

Knowing the state of a system is essential for many analysis and debug tasks, but it's becoming more difficult in heterogeneous systems that are crammed with an increasing array of features. There is a limit as to how many things engineers can keep track of, and the complexity of today's systems extends far beyond that. Hierarchy and abstraction are used to help focus on the important aspect... » read more
