A change in adoption of one of our tools led me circuitously to a cause, and also to an interesting trend in SoC design. The change is new growth in use of our GenSys tool in the assembly and optimization of subsystems -- particularly ARM and GPU subsystems. Tracing back from that effect to the root cause has taken some detective work. In the process, I gained a better understanding of what makes subsystems more than just "bigger IP."
