San Mateo, Calif. – FPGA tool startup Hier Design Inc. will launch a silicon virtual-prototyping (SVP) tool this week that applies the advanced methodologies of the ASIC world to high-end ...

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 ...

SANTA CRUZ, Calif. — Targeting an emerging niche within electronic system-level (ESL) design, Bluespec Inc. this week will roll out a new version of its Bluesim simulator that supports virtual ...

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 ...

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 ...

While physical prototypes will not soon disappear, they’re certainly becoming a less prevalent part of the design cycle. Reduced costs and the rapid speed-to-market are the driving advantages. As for ...

Electronic systems are no longer generic hardware blocks assembled into a system that executes the software. That time-honored hardware design approach proceeded without considering the application ...

The pandemic has revealed that a lot of tools and technologies once seen as optional can be mandatory for survival. As a result, CLO Virtual Fashion has seen an uptick in companies interested in ...

Much has been written about the rise of field-programmable-gate-array (FPGA) -based platforms over application-specific-integrated-circuit (ASIC) implementations. During the last few years, FPGAs have ...

The Air Force’s newly revealed fighter-jet prototype was designed with immersive simulations and other new digital tools that herald a new era for the creation and production of the U.S. military’s ...
