Changing the Game, Virtually, in Fabless
Silicon Valley Innovation Seminar Series

SoC manufacturing and design costs continue to escalate and increasingly product differentiation is delivered largely through software programmability making design and verification both challenging and expensive. New SoC designs typically consume in excess of $25M to get to first silicon samples where system software can be developed and operation can be validated. With capital requirements in the tens of millions of dollars and system proof occurring late in the design cycle, SoC development is becoming increasingly cost prohibitive.

VaST Virtualization changes the game in fabless, by enabling exhaustive in-system validation of hardware and software early in the design cycle, long before implementation and silicon manufacture.

This seminar presents the technology and the companies that have put this new virtualization technology to use. Industry business and technology experts will discuss and debate the impact of virtualization and its potential to transform the focus of Silicon Valley back to the silicon.
