Magma Sets Dates and Locations for Worldwide MUSIC User Conferences
Magma Design Automation Inc. announced dates and locations for the 2009 MUSIC user conferences. MUSIC Silicon Valley will be held April 2 in Santa Clara and MUSIC India will be held April 16 in Bangalore. To accommodate a growing user base in Asia, MUSIC China has been added to the schedule and will be held April 9 in Shanghai.
In the 7 years since it was formed, attendance at MUSIC -- Magma Users Summit on Integrated Circuits -- conferences has increased steadily, reflecting growing adoption of Magma's advanced IC implementation software. Next year's program will also highlight user successes with Magma's new analog and mixed-signal design platform.
"The global semiconductor industry is facing significant technical and economic challenges," said Rajeev Madhavan, Magma's chief executive officer. "MUSIC conferences provide our users with a unique opportunity to network with their peers and get expert tips on how to fully leverage the Magma software to improve IC performance and turnaround time and reduce chip development costs."
MUSIC: Forum for Ideas
An annual event held in key semiconductor hubs, MUSIC provides a forum for Magma users to exchange ideas, discuss common problems and to explore solutions related to the design and manufacturing of integrated circuits, as well as offers users an opportunity to meet with Magma staff and product experts. The MUSIC program covers key elements of semiconductor design from system-level design to tape-out for systems on chips, ASICs, structured ASICs, ASSPs and FPGAs. The tutorials by senior Magma staff provide the users an opportunity to learn about the latest products, features and enhancements in the Magma software and to provide feedback for further development of Magma products.
