The Fuller View Blogs

If confronting technical complexity is a design team's top priority today, managing project complexity—in other words design management itself—isn't far behind.

Cliosoft, a key player in hardware configuration and IP-management solutions today, has hosted a webinar on the topic.

Focusing on Cadence's Virtuoso Custom IC flow, the webinar walks viewers through improved design collaboration—particularly the challenges of communications between engineers and communications between engineers and managers, among other things.

No doubt you're familiar with many of those project-management questions:

• What design changes have been checked in this week?
• Is the layout for this design DRC/LVS clean?
• The design was working yesterday. What changed?
• Which revision of the schematic was the layout created for?
• Which designs have been completed and frozen?
• Looks like the schematic had some ECOs! What exactly changed?

It's a compact, informative 30-minute webinar. Here's a link to the online event.
