VLSI Research Inc.

Synopsys’s Aart de Geus is no stranger to EDA. He co-founded and runs Synopsys, which has become the world’s largest supplier. In this video he talks about how EDA evolved from crude mainframes that could hardly draw a line across a computer screen, to today’s hierarchical software that keeps track of the billions of things that have to happen to turn an idea into a design and ultimately into a computer chip. Learn about how they started as technologists working to realize their dreams and built Synopsys into a multi-billion dollar business.
