Cadence Design Systems, Inc. announced that it is collaborating with Imagination Technologies to enhance RTL designer productivity and enable faster design convergence on Imagination graphics cores and other Imagination intellectual property (IP) using the Cadence® Genus™ Synthesis Solution. On the PowerVR GE7800 GPU, the Genus Synthesis Solution achieved a 5X improvement in turnaround time versus the previous Cadence synthesis solution with no impact on power, performance or area (PPA). The Genus Synthesis Solution is able to synthesize a flat full graphics processor overnight, significantly improving design productivity by eliminating manual partitioning effort and avoiding poor timing optimization on cross-partition boundary paths. Synthesis runs are automatically distributed across multiple machines and CPUs, eliminating the need for manual design partitioning. This distributed processing includes intelligent resource management to ensure that no machine becomes a turnaround time bottleneck, thereby allowing turnaround times to scale linearly well beyond 10 million instances without any impact on

Myntra, now the app-only fashion marketplace, has tied up with Dassault Systèmes to run a 3D experience for clients and also cut costs and reduce time to bring samples online. Dassault Systèmes is the software arm of the Serge Dassault-run group widely known for aviation. As a part of the deal, Myntra will adopt the 3D digital mock up and product lifecycle management (PLM) solutions starting Wednesday. Dassault Systèmes promotes its solution with the tag of 'my collection for fashion' which allows digital marketplaces to easily make models, virtual showrooms and study usage analytics. The move assumes significance in wake of the growing e-commerce boom in India due to which online fashion has become very competitive. Commenting on the new deal, Chandan Chowdhury, managing director at Dassault Systemes' Indian arm, said: "Fashion and lifestyle industry in India is growing rapidly. Over the years, brands have realised that consumer experiences are becoming the focal point of

At EyeforPharma, Real World Evidence in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Zephyr Health announced the launch of its Real World data initiative using statistics on diabetes in England as the basis for demonstrating how patient outcomes can add value to commercial strategies. Real world data is essential to gain competitive advantage for the launch of a biopharmaceutical or medical device product. Until today, creating actionable insights from disparate healthcare sources has been a challenge. Zephyr Health’s solutions create novel insights by contextualizing and linking data from disconnected sources such as patient density, prescription and referral patterns, readmissions, population health and more for an evidence-based approach to a product lifecycle management from strategy to clinical development to market adoption. “Life Science companies need to make better use of the insights that real world data can provide in order to improve market access, sales and marketing growth strategies,” said William King, founder and CEO, Zephyr Health.

Delcam will demonstrate the latest version of its Delcam Electrode integrated solution for the design, machining and inspection of electrodes on the booth of its parent company, Autodesk, at the Amerimold exhibition to be held in Rosemont, Illinois, on 17th and 18th June. The main development in the new release is that the system can now produce multi-part electrodes or family electrodes, as well as more conventional designs. In addition, electrodes can now be displayed in the history tree of the tool on which they will be used, so simplifying the management of projects. Also, all electrode drawings will update automatically if the design is changed. For full details on Delcam Electrode, please visit www.delcam-electrode.com Multi-part electrodes can reduce the time needed for both machining and EDM compared to using several individual electrodes. In addition, machining multiple electrodes from a single blank can save materials while costs can also be reduced by using

You may be aware that CIMdata has been hosting a series of educational webinars. We have seen record attendance and many of the past webinars are available for replay from the CIMdata on-Demand page of our website. I recently hosted a webinar on IoT which generated lots of questions that we did not have time to answer live and and I am working my way through them. Here are a few. For those of you who were unable to join the webinar you can watch it here. Watch this space. Stan Convenience versus security is always a debatable point for emerging technologies like IOT / Cloud computing. How is IOT going to handle this? We mentioned standards. Many have a strong security component. Device level security is paramount. There is always encryption and stripping off identifying data. If users have to do much it is not going to work. I think are going

 PDF Key takeaways: The theme this for year’s Aras ACE conference was “RETHINK PLM” which inspired attendees to reconsider how PLM can be implemented to support rapid changes due to changing business and technology needs Peter Schroer, Aras CEO posed several questions that he was contemplating to rethink PLM: What if mechanical is no longer the big driver for PLM? What is the true intellectual property of a complex product? How will Cloud impact product development? Aras grew its revenue by 80% in 2014 (and has grown an average of 45% over last five years), added 35 new employees, and announced new partnerships with IBM and Infor Aras reviewed deliveries on last year’s roadmap including Visual Collaboration, a secure 3D view and markup solution tightly integrated with threaded discussions linked to product objects, new ECAD integrations, as well as this year’s planned roadmap which includes support for technical documentation, manufacturing process planning, with updates to

Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced the immediate availability of the EZ-VIP productivity package for ASIC and FPGA verification teams using Questa® Verification IP (QVIP). This package increases productivity by reducing the time spent creating, instantiating, configuring and connecting up a QVIP testbench by 5X or more. This means verification teams have more time available to use QVIP to verify that their design is functionally correct. The EZ-VIP package consists of QVIP Configurator software, a VIP bring up service package and a new EZ-VIP API. The QVIP Configurator software creates, instantiates and configures UVM testbenches for all protocols in the QVIP library, including PCIe, AMBA, USB, Ethernet, MIPI and Memory protocols, avoiding the time-consuming and error-prone process of writing these testbenches by hand. In many verification projects, a complicated end-to-end UVM verification infrastructure has to be created before a single test can be written. The bring up service package leverages
