IP Quality: Foundation of a Successful Ecosystem
Talking about Design IP (I mean successful Design IP) lead you to quickly pronounce the two magic key words: Quality and Ecosystem. Those who remember the IP emergence in the mid 90’s know very well why Quality has to be a prerequisite when dealing with Design IP, as they probably have paid the price of mediocre IP quality at that time. More recently, business analysts have realized that the foundation for a successful IP based business was linked to building a complete Ecosystem, just think about the 1000 ARM partners...
As a matter of fact, some of these partners are heavyweight, like Taiwan based TSMC, that any IP vendor would like to count within it IP Ecosystem. That’s why TSMC has created, back in 2000, the TSMC9000 program as one of the pillar of Open Integration Platform (OIP) ecosystem. TSMC9000 clearly defined goal is to check for, assess and audit the quality of Design IP part of OIP ecosystem.
