Major paradigm shift EDA sector is witnessing

"Smaller, faster, cheaper" has always been the mantra driving a new generation of computer chips and EDA has played a key role in enabling this to happen. In an increasingly applications-driven, highly mobile, and hyper-connected electronics world, unique demands are put on semiconductor and system providers. Not only does EDA need to provide solutions to facilitate the development of low-power, mixed-signal chips at ever-smaller process nodes, but it now needs to understand the software component as well and provide comprehensive hardware-software system-level convergence solutions.
