(Large Scale Integration) Between 3,000 and 100,000 transistors on a chip. See SSI, MSI, VLSI and ULSI. of the Year" awards ceremony, held June 28 in conjunction with the Embedded System Expo & Conference in Tokyo. "We are honored to receive this prestigious award for the second consecutive year, as our Blast Fusion(R) integrated circuit (IC) implementation solution also won in 2005," said Mehrdad Shahabi, president of Magma KK. "Magma continues to change the landscape of design automation with visionary innovations focusing on reducing design cost and turnaround time (1) In batch processing, the time it takes to receive finished reports after submission of documents or files for processing. In an online environment, turnaround time is the same as response time. in significant ways. This recognition of our physical verification products, Quartz DRC and Quartz LVS LVS Linux Virtual Server LVS Live Vaccine Strain LVS Las Vegas, New Mexico (Airport Code) LVS Low Voltage Switchgear LVS Logistical Vehicle System LVS Laser Vibration Sensor LVS Logistics Vehicle System , is proof of our commitment to innovation." Established in 1994 to further promote market development and technology in the semiconductor industry, "LSI of the Year" awards acknowledge the most remarkable LSI products and technologies and the best design environment/development tools from the previous year. All entries underwent stringent examination, and Grand Prix, Pre Grand Prix and Outstanding Performance awards were presented in each category. The LSI of the Year award ceremony on June 28 was sponsored by Sangyo Times Inc. The Embedded System Expo & Conference runs June 28-30 at the Tokyo Big Sight Tokyo Big Sight (東京ビッグサイト . About Quartz DRC Quartz DRC and Quartz LVS are the industry's first fully scalable physical verification products. Leveraging a unique architecture and advanced modeling capabilities, these revolutionary products allow massively distributed processing of DRC and LVS operations. With this technology and the right number of processors, virtually any design can be physically verified in two hours. Quartz DRC and Quartz LVS are both available now for both Linux and AIX (Advanced Interactive eXecutive) IBM's Unix-based operating system which runs on its Intellistation workstations and pSeries, p5, iSeries and i5 server families. platforms.
