Abstract

The Electronic Design Processes (EDP) Workshop provides a forum for a cross&#8211;section of the design community to discuss state&#8211;of&#8211;the&#8211;art electronic design processes and CAD methodologies&#046; As the requirements and complexities of electronic design increase, past ad&#8211;hoc approaches to design processes are proving inadequate&#046; The workshop focuses on the improvement of the overall design process, rather than on the functions of the individual tools themselves&#046; The core audience of EDP consists of CAD system integrators and methodologists, academic researchers, and design team managers&#046; <b>Keywords:</b> Best practices and experiences Domain&#8211;specific methodologies: SOC, analog / mixed&#8211;signal, RF Metrics: Cost, time&#8211;to&#8211;market, productivity Flow integration/optimization Scaling and migration: Scaling to diskbusters, Co&#8211;evolution of methodology and process technology Human issues: Large/distributed design teams, Training and education Manufacturing integration: Process/device characterization, modeling Domain&#8211;specific methodologies: Functional verification, RTL&#8211;down implementation, HW/SW co&#8211;design, IP reuse Key trends: Future methodology needs and concepts Process advances and multitechnology integration, New tool/algorithm technologies, Interoperability and ongoing interoperability initiatives, Impact of the web, licensing models, and platforms
