Mentor Graphics Corporation announced that Walden C. Rhines, the company's chairman and CEO, will keynote the 2005 Design & Verification Conference & Exhibition (DVCon) on February 15 at the Double Tree Hotel in San Jose, California. Dr. Rhines will explore how verification over the past twenty years has been driven by successive waves of innovations, moving designers up the layers of abstraction. New techniques are emerging that will support more effective verification at the multiple levels required for advanced SoC design: at the block, intra-block and system level.

DVCon 2005, which spans a three-day period from February 14-16, will include a variety of tutorials, panels, sessions and events. Beginning on Monday, February 14, Mentor Graphics is sponsoring a tutorial on "Transitioning to SystemVerilog for Verification." The material in this tutorial will be general to using SystemVerilog for verification and will benefit anyone seeking guidance on creating a SystemVerilog-based verification methodology. To round off the day, Mentor and Synopsys will be co-sponsoring a "We LOVE SystemVerilog" cocktail reception at 5:00 p.m. to celebrate the possibilities that SystemVerilog offers, as well as to answer questions.
On Tuesday, February 15, Robert Hum, the company's vice president and general manager of the Design & Verification Test Division, will participate in a panel discussion moderated by John Cooley of ESNUG and DeepChip. The focus of the panel discussion will be on today's controversial EDA topics.
Finally, on the last day of the conference, Mentor will be sponsoring a panel discussion entitled, "What's Next for Design and Verification Methodology," moderated by Stephen Bailey, product marketing manager, also of the Design & Verification Test Division. Panelists will have an opportunity to provide insights into their organization's initiatives to improve productivity in design and verification, and share plans to adapt existing or adopting new methodology and process flows.
