Problem Child IP Begins to Grow up
By Steve Deeley, Zarlink Semiconductor -- Electronic News, 10/27/2004
Depending on whom you credit, the semiconductor intellectual property (IP) industry is celebrating its 20th birthday this year. Few would contest that IP has been our industry's problem child over the past two decades, and "IP causes problems" has become an accepted tenet of chip design. Almost every semiconductor company has a horror story of a project delayed, or in extreme cases killed, by IP that simply didn't deliver.
