Virtual Iron (Chef)
By Malte Doerper - 22 Dec, 2016 - Comments: 0

I love good food but I am a horrible cook. Partially because my wife is a wonderful chef at home and I can enjoy the comfort of just eating. Until recently, I couldn’t handle most of the kitchen equipment and I had no clue which ingredients and spices work well together. When I read cooking recipes my brain started to freeze and I felt completely clueless. This was nagging me at times and... » read more

From Specification To Virtual Prototype
By Synopsys - 23 Nov, 2016 - Comments: 0

Differentiation and success for any embedded system comes from how effectively and rapidly new software features can be added. System and semiconductor manufacturers that historically aimed only at being effective at developing hardware have found themselves less competitive in the fierce battle for volume sockets in the mobile, consumer or automotive domains. The secret for success comes in mi... » read more

The Forest And The Trees
By Malte Doerper - 25 Aug, 2016 - Comments: 0

If you’re deep into the details, it can be hard to see the bigger picture of what lies ahead. There is a saying for this, of course, which everyone knows: “He can’t see the forest for the trees.” So the solution is to rise above the trees to gain a better view. Interestingly, many benefits for using virtual prototypes for early software development result from the high level of a... » read more

New Starting Point
By Ed Sperling - 14 Jul, 2016 - Comments: 0

Debate has been raging for years about whether software or hardware should be the starting point for improving power and performance, or whether it should elevated another notch by fusing hardware and software into a system-level approach. Now, groups like Leti, IEEE, SEMI, and a number of researchers in leading universities around the globe are beginning to talk about moving the starting point... » read more

Prototyping Server Farms
By Tom De Schutter - 26 May, 2016 - Comments: 0

Coming from the virtual prototyping world, I envisioned FPGA-based prototyping as mostly a one on one application, meaning that the system resides with the end user or at least in a room close to the end user. However, it turns out that a lot of companies have moved towards a physical prototyping server farm setup. Let’s look at what it means to have a prototyping server farm, the associat... » read more

ESL Flow is Dead
By Brian Bailey - 28 Apr, 2016 - Comments: 3

It was 20 years ago that Gary Smith coined the term [getkc id="48" comment="Electronic System Level"] (ESL). He foresaw the next logical migration in abstraction up from the [getkc id="49" comment="Register Transfer Level"] (RTL) to something that would be capable of describing and building complex electronic systems. He also saw that the future of EDA depended upon who would control that marke... » read more
