ADVISORY...for Tuesday-Thursday (Feb. 17-19)

--(BUSINESS WIRE)

Who:     Silicon Dimensions Inc. (SDI), a developer of EDA tools for
         integrated circuit project teams.

What:    Silicon Dimensions is demonstrating Chip2Nite at the Design,
         Automation and Test in Europe Conference and Exhibition
         (DATE). Chip2Nite is a suite of tools that enables
         comprehensive design planning and analysis of complex
         hierarchical integrated circuits. For the first time, design
         teams have a platform that will enable logic designers and
         physical designers to use their combined expertise to rapidly
         complete designs - resulting in reduced cost, lower risk and
         improved time to market. The wire-centric technologies used
         throughout the product suite enable logic designers to
         rapidly model the resulting physical design. Silicon
         Dimensions' high quality Chip2Nite platform allows IC design
         teams to rapidly iterate designs to discover flaws early in
         the development cycle utilizing "what if" analysis previously
         unavailable.
