Earlier this week at CES 2026, Synopsys showcased AI-driven, software-defined automotive engineering tools and virtual ...

Using the newly released ANSYS 16.2, engineers can now create virtual prototypes of complete systems, enabling them to make significant strides in innovation and to unleash next-generation products ...

Virtual prototyping involves using various technologies—from computer-aided design software to simulation tools—to create highly detailed prototypes before making the physical versions. Car ...

High-speed, pre-silicon system models help developers start software development earlier and ensure timely product release. As the software content in today's 2.5G and 3G phones rapidly increases, ...

Chipmakers are piling an increasing set of demands on virtual prototypes that go well beyond its original scope, forcing EDA companies to significantly rethink models, abstractions, interfaces, view ...

PRODUCTION - 28 March 2025, Berlin: Prototypes for street lamp caps stand on a table in the workshop of artist Alona Rodeh. The designer creates these "headgear" to reduce light pollution in the city.

Much has been written about the rise of field-programmable-gate-array (FPGA) -based platforms over application-specific-integrated-circuit (ASIC) implementations. During the last few years, FPGAs have ...

The Scalable Open Architecture for Embedded Edge (SOAFEE) project, of which Synopsys is a voting member, is defined by automakers, semiconductor suppliers, open-source and independent software vendors ...

The use of simulations is nothing new in the car industry. Automakers regularly use them to speed up testing and add extra trials that they can’t afford (in time and/or money) to carry out with real ...
