Ren-Song Tsay
  • NTUEE
  • UC Berkeley, Ph.D.
  • IBM T.J. Watson Research Center
  • ArcSys world first successful commercial
    performance optimization physical design system
    (now part of Synopsys)
  • Axis Systems - a breakthrough logic verification
    system using reconfigurable computer technology
    (now part of Cadence)
  • Tsing-Hua visiting professor

EDA High Challenge, High Reward
  • Need to know almost everything
  • Hardware design
  • Software design
  • Algorithm design
  • High entry barrier
  • Very secure, stable, growth industry
  • Hardware designs evolve every six months
  • No one can design any hardware without EDA tools
  • Fundamental design issues remain the same
  • High profit margin
  • Stable stock price

Good EDA Opportunity in Taiwan
  • Very strong, mature design industry
  • But need to move up innovation
  • Strategically critical to control design tools
  • High quality academia research
  • But need to focus on right direction
  • Need to tackle real, critical problems.
  • Highly intelligent people
  • But need to build up good foundation
  • Be an innovator, not just followers
  • Nanometer technology introduces new challenges
    and also new opportunities

Myth 2nd Class Citizen?
  • If you dont know the design principle, you only
    know how to use the tool, yes, you will be a 2nd
    or even 3rd class citizen, because you are no
    good.
  • If you understand the issues and can provide
    tools to solve their problems, you are not only a
    1st class citizen - you are king.
