Why SoC Design Teams Still Struggle in a Connected World

Global design teams now have more ways than ever to communicate with one another. We have real-time collaboration, video-conferencing, the cloud, virtualization, mobility, texting, email, VoIP, and source control.

Everybody is now available anywhere at any time of the day.

We have the ability to track what everybody is doing and devise new ways of improving productivity.

Why, then, is it still so difficult to complete System-on-a-Chip designs?

The process of integrating the efforts of globally distributed design teams into a single SoC is still a daunting task. It was identified as a top challenge in a recent survey of Arteris customers, and it is easy to see why. Integration of the work of distributed teams is a major cause of delays in getting to market. Delays represent lost revenue and missed opportunity.

No doubt all of these revolutionary collaboration platforms have helped the industry reduce difficulties in communication between geographically distributed design centers. They have lowered travel barriers, eroded time zone differences, and cut through geographical divides.

Any company can enable its top designers to work anywhere in the world.
