It is made up of national committees from over 60 countries. IEC - International Electrotechnical Commission ) announced the DesignVision Award winners at DesignCon 2006, taking place this week in the Santa Clara Convention Center in Silicon Valley. Dr. Barry Barry, Welsh Barri, town (1991 pop. 45,053) and port, Vale of Glamorgan, S Wales, on the Bristol Channel. Once a major coal-exporting port, its more diversified export products include cement, flour, and steel products. Sullivan, DesignCon 2006 Program Director, commented on the DesignVision Awards, "The DesignVision Awards recognize innovative products and services that support the work of electronic design engineers, the core audience at DesignCon. The IEC is pleased to provide this recognition to companies whose products exemplify ex·em·pli·fy tr.v. ex·em·pli·fied, ex·em·pli·fy·ing, ex·em·pli·fies 1. a. To illustrate by example: exemplify an argument. b. our standard of service to the industry." This year, with the largest number of exhibitors at DesignCon in its history, the IEC's DesignVision Awards bring together top vendors in the industry and their design tools and products. Recognizing the best innovators innovators people who will try new things. early innovators important figures in the farming or client community because they are the leaders in the introduction of new techniques and management systems. of the year, judges selected from the DesignCon Technical Program Committee, chose pioneering developments judged to be the most unique and beneficial to the design engineering industry. With countless submissions and only a single winner in each of the nine categories, the highly-coveted awards gave tribute to those catalyzing positive change in technology, business, and academia, completely in line with the IEC's mission. In each of the nine categories, the 2006 award winners include the following submissions and companies, respectively: ASIC & IC Design Tools ---------------------- Cadence X Architecture Design Solution - Cadence Design Systems Design Verification Tools ------------------------- Pioneer-NTB SystemVerilog Testbench Automation Tool - Synopsys Interconnect Technologies and Components ---------------------------------------- Crossbow - Amphenol TCS PCB Design Tools ---------------- CircuitSpace - DesignAdvance Systems Semiconductors and ICs ---------------------- Actel Fusion Programmable System Chip - Actel Semiconductors and ICs (IP) --------------------------- 1T-SRAM CLASSIC Memory Macros Family - MoSys Structured/Platform ASIC, FPGA, and PLD Design Tools ---------------------------------------------------- HardCopy II Structured ASIC Design Flow - Altera System-Level Design Tools ------------------------- WEBENCH Active Filter Designer - National Semiconductor Test and Measurement Equipment ------------------------------ BERTSCOPE CR Clock Recovery - Synthesys Research Broadening broad·en tr. & intr.v. broad·ened, broad·en·ing, broad·ens To make or become broad or broader. broad the scope to address business as well as technical issues of the industry, DesignCon 2006 will host 125 exhibiting companies, more than 100 sessions and tutorials, and more than 200 industry leaders to speak.
