Welcome to our new partners =========================== Welcome to our new partners of the month and good luck for their business - Asahi Kasei http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=178 - HCL Technologies http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=179 - Huins http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=183 - Microtronix http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=177 - Sipac http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=181 - Sidsa http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=182 - The Athena Group http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=180 2. Market analysis and News from D&R ================================= Our quarterly IP/SOC market watch report is ready for Q3 for D&R partners. This report contains confidential data, to receive it you should either be a D&R partner (http://www.us.design-reuse.com/PARTNERS/program.html) or a member of D&R user group (http://www.us.design-reuse.com/PARTNERS/user_agreement.pdf). You will find amazing data about the most attractive IP /SOC products, the market demands and offers both for products and services. D&R emits also weekly the most comprehensive IP/SOC News Alert, if you do not yet receive this letter please subscribe : http://www.us.design-reuse.com/CONTACT/register.html 3. IP Based Soc Design 2002 ======================== IP Based Soc Design 2002 was a good success with 220 participants and the community was very pleased with the level of the presentations, panels discussions and possible customer presence. The authorized papers are posted on D&R portal : http://www.us.design-reuse.com/ipbasedsocdesign Two amazing awards, namely a golden encapsulated prototype wafers of Alliance (ST Microelectronics, Philips and Motorola) were presented by Jacques Trilhe from ST Microelectronics respectively to: - Paul van Zeijl from Ericsson Licensing Technology (Netherlands) for "A Bluetooth radio in 0.18um CMOS" And - David McBrien from Imagination Technologies & Frontier Silicon (UK) for "Efficient Free-to-Air DVB-T System Solution Supported by IP-Based SoC Designs" Read the press release: http://www.us.design-reuse.com/news/news4317.html IP SOC based Design 2003 will take place on November 13-14, in the same venue. Attention most of the exhibitors have already renewed their exhibition space for next year, so if you wish to jump in as a newcomer please react quickly and contact us (mktg@design-reuse.com). 4.D&R IP gateway community ======================== As announced earlier as an extension of its public catalogs D&R hosts confidential catalogs for each IP/SOC provider. The data contained are partly linked to the D&R "public" web site catalog to give more visibility to these IPs. Thus you will see a link from our public catalog for some providers and some IPs to more data and D&R will of course publicize actively these IPs. An interesting feature of these extended catalogs is the possibility of posting customer testimonials in the IP description as we all know that this is the most effcient way for convincing customers about your IPs. So join D&R IP gateway community to benefit from advanced IP display. (http://www.us.design-reuse.com/PARTNERS/ipgateway_agreement.pdf) As stated earlier, data specific to a customer can be introduced in these confidential catalogs and these data are specifically exported to customers intranet catalogs. D&R is committed to support and control these automated data transfers to the target customer. More generally, to favor IP /SOC business, large OEMs can benefit from all D&R public web data by installing mirror catalogs within their firewall containing all or selected D&R catalogs or specific product data refreshed periodically So if you are a provider, a customer, or a large OEM acquiring IPs , it is urgent for you to join D&R IP Gateway community (http://www.us.design-reuse.com/PARTNERS/ipgateway_agreement.pdf) 5.D&R "Standard" IP Delivery platform =================================== Similarly to the catalog platform, there is now a solution for standardizing the IP delivery process within a company, between a supplier and a user, within a consortium or more broadly. Starting from the result of a Eureka (Medea Toolip project) the delivery process of an "environment independent" IP has become a reality. It has bee demonstrated how to conduct a corporate reuse standardization in terms of IP delivery as well as how to export the IP files to a "standardized" delivery platform. This approach is demonstrated on a so called D&R standard delivery platform which is an unique worlwide middleware for standardized IP delivery. If you are a large OEM contact us, join D&R IP Gateway community (http://www.us.design-reuse.com/PARTNERS/ipgateway_agreement.pdf) and D&R can install in your intranet environment an IP delivery platform conform to your internal standard or any appropriate delivery standard you select. D&R can as well assist your suppliers to deliver their IPs packaged according to your requirements At IP Based SoC Design 2002 D&R has demonstrated such an IP delivery platform middleware as part of its e-Design Manager tool.
