2002 Synopsys Users Group Conference (SNUG San Jose 2002)

The Future of ASIC Design(ers) by Steve Golson

This year I was honored to be invited as Guest Speaker, and these are the slides from the presentation I gave. It’s a bit harder to follow when you don’t have me talking to each slide, but perhaps you can still get some of the jokes 🙂 The astute reader will note some overlap with my SNUG 2000 presentation. I prefer to call it design reuse.

Thanks to John Cooley who recorded this spontaneous remark from my presentation:

I don’t know what kind of HDL most ASIC designers will use in the year 2010, but it will be called Verilog.
— Steve Golson, guest speaker at SNUG ’02

Looks like I was right!
