October 27: John Schiavone, Cadence Design Systems: Real World Parallelism:

Hi Everyone,

I thought that I would post this since one of my co-workers at Cadence will be gave a webinar on his experience parallelizing an existing application. The application and algorithms involved are really complex. It was especially interesting because it involves legacy code and also the development environment was Windows unlike many EDA applications which run on Linux/Unix. I really recommending watching.

October 27: John Schiavone, Cadence Design Systems: Real World Parallelism: Refactoring Legacy Code and Implementing Concurrency Cadence Allegro's complex Design Rules Checking (DCR) process is used to verify that designs meet constraint requirements. Development is currently underway to improve the performance of the DRC process using multithreading. View the design architecture and learn about the challenges faced in refactoring the legacy code, achieving platform independence, and performance verification.Link to John's Webinar
