Creating Buzz for Block-Based Design
The Difference in the Industry
- LPR and Aristo began a discussion of block-based design that
has created wide and still-growing acceptance for a new solution for next-generation
designs.
Problem
- Define a new concept for the industry: "Block-based design."
- Establish block-based design as critical for multi-million-gate ICs.
- Erase Aristo's reputation in the industry as a floor-planning company.
- Establish Aristo as the technology leader and undisputed authority
on block-based design.
Results
- Aristo is positioned as the first vendor dedicated to
next-generation block-level design.
- Simon Bloch, CEO of Aristo, is often called by editors for his overview
of design planning and physical design.
- Aristo is a vendor that editors routinely include in articles on solutions for
multi-million-gate designs.
- Block-based design is an accepted niche term, supported publicly by EDA vendors,
journalists, editors, and such analysts as Gary Smith of Dataquest.
- Other EDA vendors perceive Aristo's technology as complementary to—not
competing with—existing products.
