 | Kent Dozier
Member of Technical Staff, SoC Design Methodology, AMD
Kent touched upon AMD’s need for HyperScale due to the ever growing design sizes and complexity and heavy IP reuse and how the HyperScale flow will enable timing convergence faster and improve their productivity. |
|
 | K.H. Kim
Technical Lead, Cisco
KH provided insight into the different phases of the Cisco STA flow and how he can take advantage of HyperScale by reducing the number of iterations he has to do today. |

 | Richard Yuan
Physical Design Lead, NVIDIA
Richard highlighted the significant runtime and memory advantages of HyperScale and how it will help NVIDIA’s large designs with faster and smaller STA runs. |
|
 | Patrick Fortner
Sr. R&D Manager, Synopsys
Patrick delved into how HyperScale works and shared the latest runtime, memory and accuracy results. |
The event was held during lunch during which the attendees had the opportunity to talk with industry peers and PrimeTime R&D.
