IP Roundtable: Subsystems & Software
This blog continues the experts' panel on trends in the intellectual property (IP) industry.

Taking part in today's discussion are: Mike Gianfagna, vice president of Corporate Marketing, Atrenta; Warren Savage, president and CEO of IPextreme; John Koeter, vice president of Marketing, Solutions Group, Synopsys; and Chris Rowen, Cadence Fellow and CTO, Tensilica.
