ARC International Opens Industry's First Taiwan Training Center Dedicated to Configurability.HSINCHU, Taiwan -- 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), the leader in configurable multimedia subsystems and CPU/DSP processors, today announced it has opened the industry's first comprehensive training center for configurable processor technology. Based in Hsinchu (the capital of Taiwan's multi-billion dollar semiconductor industry), the training center features senior instructors from ARC International and partner companies who will guide customers and prospects in Greater China on the development of lower cost, highly differentiated chips using ARC's patented configurable products and third party technologies. Courses will cover topics such as how to design with the ARC(TM) Video and Audio subsystems, the ARC 600 and 700 configurable core families, the use of audio and video algorithms with ARC's products, and development tools, 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, and 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. that support ARC's subsystems and cores. For more information, visit www.arc.com/support/#training. The center's establishment is in response to the dramatic increase in demand by companies in Greater China for ARC's configurable solutions, which offer the ability to create system-on-chips (SoCs) that are more differentiated and may be lower cost to manufacture when compared to "fixed architecture" alternatives. ARC recently held the first-ever developers conference dedicated to configurability -- ConfigCon -- in Taiwan's Hsinchu Science Park Hsinchu Science Park (Chinese: 新竹科學園區; Hanyu Pinyin: Xīnzhú Kē Xué Yuán Qū; Tongyong Pinyin: Sinjhú Ke Syué Yuán Cyu) was established by the government of Taiwan, ROC on December 15, 1980 with investment from the Kuomintang. . Recent regional investments by ARC also include increasing sales and customer support staff, and marketing activities. Derek Meyer, senior vice president of sales and marketing at ARC International, said, "Our worldwide network of training offices have expanded into Asia to support the burgeoning design activity occurring in both Taiwan and China. With ARC's patented, easy-to-use ARChitect Processor Configurator training an SoC designer to create an optimized CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. is relatively easy. This reduces the time a customer needs to master ARC's configurable methodology and speeds their time to market with ARC-Based silicon." About ARC's Patented Configurable Technology ARC's patented configurable processor technology enables system-on-chip (SoC) designers to create silicon that is optimized to the end application. Designers have the freedom to retain necessary functionality while removing unneeded features in a configurable ARC subsystem A unit or device that is part of a larger system. For example, a disk subsystem is a part of a computer system. A bus is a part of the computer. A subsystem usually refers to hardware, but it may be used to describe software. or processor. The benefit is an SoC with a more optimal balance of speed, area, and power for a specific application, resulting in a lower power, smaller chip that is less expensive to manufacture. Adding custom instructions to ARC's subsystems and cores, designers can achieve major gains in application efficiency by defining custom extensions that accelerate critical code. These gains result in higher overall SoC performance, or in lower device frequency and lower power consumption. About ARC International plc ARC International is the world leader in configurable subsystems and CPU/DSP processors that are used by semiconductor companies worldwide for next-generation system-on-chip (SoC) design. ARC's patented configurable processor technology enables the development of consumer, networking, mass storage and other cost-sensitive devices that are smaller 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.
