TECHNOLOGY GAPS IN EDA ROADMAP<br />
1. End-product roadmaps (what is EDA enabling!) x<br />
Semi companies compete on cost, TTM, quality<br />
2. System-level - virtual platforms, executable specification<br />
TI, Bosch<br />
3. Design space exploration – pathfinding (incl. 3D), IP<br />
selection, what-if analyses (incl. cost)*<br />
4. SW synthesis and verification (concurrency)<br />
5. Post-silicon: perf/power closure, diagnosis, debug * (Test)<br />
6. EDA scaling (cf. evolving computing platforms<br />
(manycore, accelerators, cloud) *<br />
Simply follow Moore’s Law, handle technology<br />
7. Power management (analysis, optimization, power-driven<br />
design) *<br />
Apple, Google, Nokia<br />
8. 3D (end of CMOS, heterogeneity, cost, perf, power)<br />
9. Variability (trends), resilience, BTWC design *<br />
10.Analog / mixed-signal<br />
11.Interoperability<br />
