At the Design Automation Conference last month, Dennis Brophy, vice chairman for the 10-year-old standards organization, let slip that several standards resulting from the merger with SPIRIT last year would be submitted to IEEE.  (Yea we know this is a month old, but it hasn’t been announced yet and we just fixed a major tech glitch in this site’s database following a major upgrade.). follow this link for the interview.

Prakash Narain has been running the privately held EDA verification company Real Intent for the past decade.  Hard to call that a start-up, but there you are.  Any company in EDA that has survived for 10 years has a few things going for it.  We talked briefly on what Real Intent is all about and then got into what I care about — the bottom line.

Greg Lebsack took the reigns as CEO of Tanner EDA less than four months ago, and still had time to talk to us at New Tech Press. He came over from the same position at ASP Global Services (SaaS supply chain software) and says EDA is an industry with “potential for growth” which either means he’s smoking something really interesting, or he sees something a lot of people are missing.  At least it’s good to hear from someone with a fresh perspective.
