For most of the average joes attending the Design Automation Conference, it’s a time to walk the exhibit floor, witness demos of the latest EDA gear, take in some interesting technical sessions, and maybe attend a party or reception.
But if you dig around the DAC website, you’ll see a link to something called “Collocated [...]
Just a short one – about a month ago, the 2008 Southwest DFT Conference was held in Austin, TX. I blogged about it here. Since I didn’t get to go, I just recently checked back to [...]
This week, I’ll try to pass along Design-for-Test related DAC news as it comes along…
First, it was announced today that the standards organization Accellera has selected Bruce Cory, a DFT manager at NVIDIA, to receive the 5th annual Technical Excellence Award, for leading the effort to bring the Open Compression Interface (OCI) to be approved [...]
The Design Automation Conference is just around the corner. DAC’s not usually a conference that commands much interest with regard to DFT… I recently wrote a blog post complaining of that fact, but never posted it (I like to let posts like that simmer for awhile, and many times, a re-reading of them [...]
