CEDA 20th Anniversary Panel at DATE 2025

CEDA 20th Anniversary Panel at the 2025 Design, Automation, and Test in Europe Conference (DATE).

This special session took place from Monday, 31 March 2025.

In celebration of CEDA's 20th anniversary, this panel discussed the role of electronic design automation (EDA) in designing today's multi-billion-transistor chips. With CMOS technology scaling approaching the range of a few nanometer and chips going 3D, what design techniques and tools will be needed to design these future integrated systems? Or will other technologies pop up and dominate? Where are the challenges? Who will provide the solutions? Will it be open source? See what our panelists had to say.
