ABSTRACT
It's been one year since Richard Goering told us that the EDA RTL-to-GDSII world was about to change. What have we learned? Who's winning, and who's not? This panel, consisting of the leading large and upcoming players in this space, will deliver concrete data to differentiate leading approaches to achieving design closure. Does the solution lie in raw speed and RTL optimization, with the synthesis-place-route back end just a commodity? Does the solution lie in new metrics for design convergence, and symmetric multiprocessing platforms for efficiency? Does the solution lie in a holistic, unified architecture of data model and tools? Or does the solution lie in extensions and unifications of existing production-proven logic, timing, and layout optimization technologies? A hard-hitting panel session will reveal the answers!

Case studies (panel session) (abstract only): Chip design on the bleeding edge
DAC '00: Proceedings of the 37th Annual Design Automation ConferenceOften, the most interesting tools, methodologies, and insights come from designs that push hard on the “leading edge” of technology--what the survivors commonly call the “bleeding edge” of design. In this session, we collect three such on-the-edge ...
Emerging companies—acquiring minds want to know (panel session)
DAC '00: Proceedings of the 37th Annual Design Automation ConferenceThe EDA industry is entering its third decade with more software suppliers than ever before, automating smaller and smaller pieces of the design flow. The question invariably is whether an emerging EDA company, or any semiconductor industry supplier for ...
SIGGRAPH (Papers and Panel Session)
ACM '76: Proceedings of the 1976 annual conferenceMaybe you think computer graphics has little application in your operation. This session may change your mind. It will show how computer graphics is being used to grind out graphs, charts, pie graphs and maps - at the rate of thousands per day.
