Cadence Logic Design Team Solution Addresses Front-End Design 'Predictability Crisis'24 October 2006
Design Management - brings unparalleled predictability from plan to closure through an automated plan and metrics-driven management solution which tracks progress of the evolving design against all its functional, performance, and schedule objectives "At Kawasaki Microelectronics, we rely on Encounter Test technology for the creation and production of deep submicron devices indispensable for the low-power consumer and high-performance information technology markets we serve," said Yoshito Muraishi, director of CAD development at Kawasaki Microelectronics, Inc. "We are very pleased with the results of the Cadence Logic Design Team Solution, and with its Design with Test aspects. The deep level of integration and synergies between testability and synthesis, verification, timing analysis will further accelerate our time-to-market, reduce design iterations, improve shipped product quality and accelerate yield ramp." "The schedule predictability crisis is real," said Ted Vucurevich, senior vice president and chief technology officer at Cadence. "We have been aggressively extending front-end technology and methodology innovation, building user-centric integrated flows and solutions across design and verification. The Cadence Logic Design Team Solution brings a practical and holistic approach to achieving predictability with an automated concurrent design process, replacing the ad-hoc serial, fragmented and manual approaches of the past." The Design-for-Test element will be featured at the International Test Conference in San Jose on October 24, 2006. Elements of the Cadence Logic Design Team Solution are described in more detail in the front-end design white paper at, http://www.cadence.com/whitepapers/frontend_logic_design.pdf.
