In this viewpoint, Dr. Ajoy K. Bose, Atrenta's chairman, president and CEO, explains that SoC Realization represents the next natural and necessary step up in abstraction from existing EDA methodologies and is a necessary bridge from the more abstract world of system-level design that is helping drive SoC-enabled products.
