Open-Silicon at DAC 2010 – Panel and Presentation

28nm and Below: SOC Design Ecosystem at a Crossroad
Tuesday, June 15, 2010
Time: 3:30 PM — 4:15 PM
Location: Booth #694

Summary: 28nm presents an inflection point. Pre-packaged EDA, IP and foundry solutions aren't enough. Few semiconductor companies appear equipped to reap the full benefits of the node in keeping with Moore's Law. If foundries are turning to a virtual IDM model or even an ASIC-like approach, how will business models evolve to address time to market and development cost constraints?
