Keynote by Jakob Engblom, Product Marketing Director, Cadence (VLAB)
Title: Virtual Platforms for System Architecture, Development, and Test – an Overview
Abstract: When architecting, designing, developing, manufacturing, and maintaining computer-based systems, engineers cannot rely on physical prototypes and real systems. Simulation and virtualization are necessary tools throughout the life cycle of a system, from early architecture work through detailed development to system validation and long-term software updates. Different types of simulation models are used for different purposes, including everything from simple traffic generators to cycle-accurate designs to implementation RTL to transaction-level models. Simulation can also be used to bring in the environment in which a system operates, at different levels of scope.
