Welcome to our new partners of the month ======================================== - Denali Software, Inc http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=190 - Phyton, Inc http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=191 - Sonics, Inc. http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=192 - Synopsys, Inc. http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=193 - Toshiba America Electronics Corp http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=194 and to our partners that renewed this month their partnership: - Barco Silex http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=195 - Inicore, Inc http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=196 - MoreThanIP http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=197 - ParthusCeva, Inc http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=198 - Sarnoff Corp. http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=199 - Snowbush, Inc. http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=200 - TriCN, Inc. http://www.us.design-reuse.com/cgi-bin/redirect.pl?ID=201 D&R is recognized by all OEMs as the most valuable and comprehensive information source in the IP/SOC field and company managers deploy significant efforts in disseminating aggressively this information among their design teams. To favor this strategic information circulation most of the large companies create internal D&R user groups to whom D&R forwards directly all relevant News and whose members can access the D&R web portal with a simple corporate password (see our latest user group announcement: "Toshiba TAEC creates a corporate D&R user group" http://www.us.design-reuse.com/news/news5108.html). Please contact us (info@design-reuse.com) if such a group has not yet been created in your company. At the same time this process increases drastically IP exposure for the providers. 2. The interconnect corner has been upgraded on D&R web site ========================================================= In cooperation with Toshiba America Electronics Corp. (http://www.toshiba.com/taec) and Sonics (http://www.sonicsinc.com), the content of the interconnect corner has been updated . We all know how important this topic is in the SOC community and exciting solutions are obviously under hot discussion worldwide. So please react, send us more data and join the forum open in this corner. You need to participate as your opinion is valuable to the community.

Intranet SOC catalogs ===================== This is a very exciting task for D&R as the demand is huge in this field and D&R is improving and extending its services everyday in this field. D&R provides an unique service by installing in large OEMs intranet SOC product catalog with a reliable catalog version update service. Tripartite agreements link the major providers to a significant number of OEMs through a well established protocol. For releasing a new supplier catalog version the D&R IP gateway is open for the provider for bringing in all relevant data about its new products. These data are targeted to dedicated OEMs for whom the provider has been qualified. Once the provider validates the new catalog version, the OEMs are warned that a new supplier catalog version is available and D&R updates the intranet catalog through an automated process. This is worldwide mastered and should definitively help to promote the IP usage in large companies 4. Delivery platforms as extension of intranet catalogs ==================================================== D&R notices 2 major extensions: - First some IP providers are willing to use this intranet catalogs as a delivery platform and D&R uses its delivery platform technology for an easy delivery - Second most of the OEM connect their internal IP delivery system to give an unified reuse environment to their designers This should more and more facilitate the reuse practice to go through Should you be an OEM not yet working with us contact us (info@design-reuse.com), just send us your list of qualified providers and we will be able to demo right away our services and technology. 5. IP based Soc design =================== This year, IP Based SoC Design 2003 will take place in Grenoble, November 13-14, 2003. Date is over so we have to work actively on it. Send us all your wishes (paper, panel) and book your booth now.
