ARC Announces Return of Successful ConfigCon(TM) Conference Series With New Locations Added for 2007.ConfigCon 2007 Israel, First in Series, to Highlight Configurable Solutions for Wireless, Media, and Security SoCs ELSTREE, England -- ARC International This article is about the publicly traded processor company. For the privately held French housewares company of the same name, see ARC International (household). (LSE LSE - Language Sensitive Editor :ARK) today announced that the successful ConfigCon([TM]) developers conference series is expanding in 2007 to include additional regions active in next-generation system-on-chip (SoC) development. The 2007 ConfigCon conference series will leverage the momentum established by the 2006 program, where more than 1,000 attendees participated in events in Taiwan, China, and Silicon Valley. The first ConfigCon 2007 event will be in Herzliya, Israel, and take place on Monday, March 19th at the Dan Accadia Hotel. Semiconductor company executives, venture capitalists Venture Capitalist An investor who provides capital to either start-up ventures or support small companies who wish to expand but do not have access to public funding. Notes: Venture capitalists usually expect higher returns for the additional risks taken. , and SoC designers who attend will hear 20 keynote and technology presentations from companies providing configurable processors and subsystems intellectual property (IP), and the software and hardware development solutions for getting SoCs incorporating them quickly to market. These solutions include the latest integrated development environments See IDE. integrated development environment - interactive development environment (IDEs), more analytical simulation tools, operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. , more effective EDA (1) (Electronic Design Automation) Using the computer to design, lay out, verify and simulate the performance of electronic circuits on a chip or printed circuit board. flows, powerful compilers, incisive debuggers, and valuable on-chip IP. Erez Tsur, director of EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) Refers to that region of the world. For example, one might see products packaged differently for the UK, EMEA and Asia Pacific markets. business development at Cadence Design Systems (company) Cadence Design Systems - A company that sells electronic design automation software and services. http://cadence.com/.

At ConfigCon Israel, I look forward to discussing how to cultivate entrepreneurial success, maximize funding, and accelerate product development." "Due to the success of ConfigCon last year, we are expanding the program in 2007 and taking the developer conference into new regions that are active in SoC design," said Derek Meyer, senior vice president of sales and marketing at ARC International. "First on the program for this year is ConfigCon Israel, which will target the region's high concentration of SoC developers, advanced design centers, and chip manufacturing facilities. Due to its large amount of venture capital investment and high number of start-up companies start-up company A new business. , we fully expect ConfigCon Israel to be well received and to be a great start to the 2007 ConfigCon Series." About ConfigCon([TM]) Israel 2007 ConfigCon Israel is part of at least four ConfigCon events planned for 2007. It will educate hundreds of SoC designers and executives in one of the world's most active semiconductor markets on how configurable subsystems and cores enable the creation of lower cost, highly differentiated SoCs that command higher margins and cannot be easily copied by competitors. ConfigCon Israel will feature morning keynote presentations from industry leaders detailing how configurable processor technology can help Israeli semiconductor companies obtain a strategic competitive advantage. These will be followed by technical sessions covering a range of detailed topics. Attendees also will have the opportunity to speak with representatives from companies providing a wide range of solutions for SoC design with configurable subsystems and processors. A free luncheon and evening reception are provided to all attendees. Visit www.configcon.com for more information and registration requirements. About ARC International plc ARC International is the world leader in configurable subsystems and CPU/DSP processors that are used by semiconductor companies worldwide to create system-on-chip (SoC) designs that provide a strategic competitive advantage. ARC's patented configurable products are smaller, consume less power, are less expensive to manufacture, and provide a higher degree of differentiation over what can be created using "fixed architecture" core alternatives. ARC International maintains a worldwide presence with corporate and research and development offices in California and Elstree, UK. For more information visit www.ARC.com.
