Magma Design Automation Inc. (Nasdaq: LAVA), a provider of chip design software, today announced that MUSIC India (Magma Users Summit on Integrated Circuits), will be held in Bangalore on January 22 and 23 at The Leela Palace. Now in its fourth year, the expanded MUSIC India program will feature 25 user papers, 2 user tutorials and informative R&D sessions that cover the entire RTL-to-GDSII flow, including automated full-chip floor planning, low-power, design for manufacturability and physical verification. A record number of paper proposals were received, reflecting the growing number of large, complex, high-performance 65- and 45-nanometer (nm) designs being done in India by Magma users.
A platform that encourages the exchange of ideas and challenges faced in nanometer IC design, this year’s MUSIC India will feature speakers from leading semiconductor companies. They will explain useful techniques that allow users to fully leverage Magma's automated and integrated implementation, sign-off, verification, circuit simulation and packaging software to address advanced nanometer design challenges to improve results, reduce power and increase productivity.
“Designers with experience in all aspects of IC design from world-leading semiconductor companies will be at MUSIC to share best practices, experiences, challenges, tips and tricks for working with Magma software,” said Satya Gupta, vice president of Engineering at Open-Silicon Research and a Magma user. "This event is a great opportunity for users to increase the technical knowledge they need to meet the requirements of today’s advanced ICs.”
“Magma’s presence in India has grown significantly in recent years to support its growing customer base here. In fact, Magma is the only global EDA company with support and R&D offices in three cities in India,” said Anand Anandkumar, managing director of Magma Design Automation Pvt. Ltd. “The incredible interest we’ve received for this year’s event reflects the fact that a significant number of Indian designers are creating advanced designs using Magma software.”
“Every year the quality and quantity of the papers submitted increases,” said Atreya Nagraja, regional director of Magma India. “This year there will be high-quality papers on the entire suite of Magma software. Because it offers an unparalleled chance to learn, share and network, this is an event that Magma users should not miss.”
