Software-Driven Hardware Verification
There is a transition going on in the system and semiconductor worlds. Some system companies are starting to do their own semiconductor design. In fact, it is notable that all the leading smartphone vendors design their own application processors, for example. At the same time, semiconductor companies have to create a large part of the software stack for each SoC since the software and silicon are intimately related. Both these trends mean that software and SoCs need to be designed in parallel. This is not the only change going on. There is more parallelism in everything from the inter-relation of thermal and power, packaging and EMIR analysis, system architecture and test strategy, and more. This highly concurrent design process is what we at Cadence call System Design Enablement or SDE.
