Virtual prototypes, often used as a niche tool in the past, are becoming essential for developing complex systems. In fact, systems companies are finding they no longer can function without them. In ...

The concept of the integrated development environment is gaining wide attention in the system-on-chip industry. When most people speak of an IDE, they are focused only on software, and indeed the ...

Chipmakers are piling an increasing set of demands on virtual prototypes that go well beyond its original scope, forcing EDA companies to significantly rethink models, abstractions, interfaces, view ...

Many of today's system-on-chip (SoC) designs cause significant problems and delays as they go through the physical design process. Yes, physical design is harder than ever. But part of the problem is ...

Virtual prototyping involves using various technologies—from computer-aided design software to simulation tools—to create highly detailed prototypes before making the physical versions. Car ...
