"Black Duck audits have become a standard part of our due diligence when we buy a software company."

“We had the idea to simulate our devices in a virtual platform, but were stuck with the importation of a human body in the software. Thanks to Simpleware software, we easily solved the problem. The virtual simulation has become part of our feasibility practice today. I highly recommend Simpleware software!”

“Synopsys’ ASIP Designer provides a fully-functional software development kit at any stage of the design process, which allowed us to take an iterative design approach with processor designers and embedded software developers working close cooperation. This capability was fundamental to enabling us to meet our project timelines.”

"Synphony Model Compiler really improved our productivity and reliability in designing complex multi-rate DSP algorithm, mixed-signal functions and generated very reliable results."

“We were able to ramp up our design prototype very early and could iterate quickly with this high-level synthesis flow. The flow allowed us to cut months off our schedule. Using Synphony Model Compiler, we could explore the results of using different architectures. Using Synplify Premier we quickly obtained a high-performance FPGA prototype."

"Identify is invaluable because of the great visibility it provides into bugs that we can trace back to either hardware or software, quickly identifying the source without data buffer overload.”

"In the competitive consumer landscape, with each new generation of products, customers expect higher levels of performance and functionality at a lower cost. For picoChip to drive the pace of these markets, rapid adoption of new technologies is essential. Synopsys’ Lynx Design System helped accelerate our migration to 40-nanometer, saving at least 8 weeks of R&D schedule on our next generation design."

"We see on average 10-15% superior performance with DC Ultra. Its topographical technology predicts results that are within 5% of post layout results cutting weeks off of our implementation time. Superior performance with higher predictability is what drives us to use DC Ultra for all our synthesis needs."

"Using DFT MAX compression to reduce test data volume for our new HDTV chip allowed us to apply all the test patterns at one time and take full advantage of the higher test quality possible with DSM tests."

"Access to Synopsys' leading-edge design software enables our engineering students to learn in the same environment as their industry counterparts, increasing the value of the student experience and research at Purdue University."

"Our students are very much indebted to training on Simpleware and simulation tools, and advice on how to use it. I would like to eventually model the whole human body, as Dr. Nishida mentioned earlier, so it would be excellent if you can automate as much as possible on the software side."

"The importance of Synopsys Simpleware in the workflow is to provide a straightforward one-step conversion of microstructure data, from images to meshes. In addition, the software handles well the complex nature of our microstructure data, and is able to produce the meshes in high-throughput fashion, via Python API scripting."

"ScanIP has been instrumental in our efforts to understand AF and better treat this arrhythmia. Due to the help from ScanIP, we published 2 papers, presented 6 conference abstracts, applied for a patent, and started a clinical trial called SIMPLE-AF. In our clinical trial, we identify the critical regions that sustain AF based on our finite-element meshes generated from ScanIP and apply a novel ablation strategy to eliminate the minimum amount of tissue needed to interrupt the arrhythmia. So far, we were able to successfully terminate AF in every patient we enrolled."

"The CT scan gets our component from the real to the digital world. Then Synopsys Simpleware is a key stage in the workflow to get from our 3D X-ray images to ultra-high resolution engineering simulations. I started using Synopsys Simpleware as a PhD student at The University of Manchester's School of Materials ‏in The University of Manchester almost 10 years ago now. It’s been great to see how it’s developed over time, I’m impressed how each year new features are added which increase its usefulness. We found a small region of debonding that kept occurring in the heat exchange component. By creating an image-based model with Simpleware software we were able to quantify its impact on performance and optimise use of the component."

"We found a significant correlation between component orientation and polyethylene damage; varus angulations were strongly associated with thinner medial compartments, whilst valgus angulations were associated with thinner lateral compartments. Our study is the first to compare accurate 3D-CT measurements of pre-revision implant positioning with post-revision retrieval analysis from an innovative, accurate and reliable micro-CT based method, made possible using Simpleware ScanIP 3D reconstruction capabilities."
