1. Billions
of transistors, and Moore
The nanoelectronic-IC era will enable chips with, literally,
billions of transistors, presenters said. But with the market's
once-predict-able double-digit growth rates no longer assured, the
industry is struggling to identify applications of nanoelectronics
that will fill its fabrication facilities and give a return on its
massive investments. More...

Verification requires new methodologies, panelists say
There's no silver bullet that can solve the design verification
problem. There are tools that can help, but the real issue is rethinking
the methodology. More...

3. Leveraging structured
ASICs for signal processing applications
Hardware tasks, traditionally partitioned between the ASIC
and FPGA, now primarily fall to FPGAs, which provide a cost-effective
alternative for DSP implementation that easily can be adopted for
a broad range of applications. More...

4. Prime-time
Processing Are Embedded Systems on FPGA Ready?
Over the coming months, watch for an increased pace of new
tool and technology announcements, lower price points for system-on-chip
capable FPGAs, and increased variety and diversity in offerings
of processors, peripherals, and embedded platform support. More...

The Real Challenge of System-Level Design
The main challenge System-Level Design (SLD) tools have to addressis
bridging the gap from specification to implementation and reducing
the guessing as much as possible. More...

Technology Showcase
Reference designs and flows
are coming on the RF side and third-party verification IP
is accumulating on the protocol side, sure indications that
early designs are going on somewhere. UWB is moving out of
the realm of papers and standards reviews, and toward early
silicon.
