Why is Synopsys buying EVE?

People have been talking about a hookup between Synopsys and EVE for a long time.

Instead, Synopsys went down the FPGA prototype route and have had a friendly cooperative relationship with EVE when emulation was a necessity.
It is also helpful to look back in time. Synopsys tried to get into the emulation space back in 2001. At that time Synopsys made an offer to buy Ikos – in the future.
