The need for improved productivity, efficiency and innovation are
imperatives for an industry that competes at the global level. System
Level Design is promoted as offering a route to deliver more efficient
designs, faster and more accurately through improved system level
definition, modelling, analysis and implementation methodologies.
The System Level Design (SLD) network has been established to explore
microelectronics system design from the system/algorithmic definition
level through to RTL/chip level. The network takes a hardware perspective
on system level design down to RTL level, linking with and complementing
other technical networks such as Embedded Software and Verification.
The System Level Design (SLD) network covers areas such as ;
- system definition
- making optimal hardware/software trade-offs
- system hardware implementation methodologies to RTL/chip level
- system level hardware verification methodologies.
- system integration
The SLD events provide a support forum and opportunity for the key
players active in SLD to network and exchange views.
Event Theme
Various analyses indicate that today’s large system on chip
designs re-use somewhere in the region of 80-90% legacy IP. This
event will explore SLD methodologies and the particular challenges
posed by designing for re-use and incorporating legacy IP.
