Part 1 of this 3-part series described how a model-driven development process and virtual prototyping tools help address the challenges of implementing a DFSS methodology in a complex automotive ...

In previous articles I have talked about prototyping in general “Prototypes: What is a prototype?” and some of the consideration when deciding if a prototype would be beneficial, and then deciding on ...

Virtual prototyping platforms provide fast, fully functional software models and enable software engineers to develop production quality code much before the hardware can arrive in the lab. In theory, ...

Prototyping is an integral part of every SoC today, with two main approaches being used: virtual or software-based, and physical, which includes FPGA-based boards as well as hardware emulation systems ...

Virtual prototypes, often used as a niche tool in the past, are becoming essential for developing complex systems. In fact, systems companies are finding they no longer can function without them. In ...

Much has been written about the rise of field-programmable-gate-array (FPGA) -based platforms over application-specific-integrated-circuit (ASIC) implementations. During the last few years, FPGAs have ...
