Mentor Graphics Announces Product Certification for 64-Bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux Platform.WILSONVILLE, Ore. -- Mentor Graphics Corporation (Nasdaq:MENT) today announced its support for 64-bit Linux platforms by declaring full operational qualification for its analog/mixed-signal tool set. Mentor's entire line of Eldo(R) and ADVance MS(TM) analog and mixed-signal products have been certified for operation on Opteron and EM64T (Extended Memory 64 Technology) The first name of Intel's 64-bit x86 CPUs. In 2006, the name of the technology was changed to "Intel 64." See Intel 64. processor architectures using the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Red Hat Enterprise Linux (often abbreviated to RHEL) is a Linux distribution produced by Red Hat and targeted toward the commercial market, including mainframes. Red Hat commits to supporting each version of RHEL for 7 years after its release. 3 platform. "Linux on X86-64 hardware is proving to be a great performance platform for our products," said Jue-Hsien Chern, vice president and general manager of Mentor's Deep Submicron Division. Mentor's AMS AMS - Andrew Message System (Analog/Mixed-Signal) products and CICD CICD Center for International Career Development CICD Channel Islands Council of Divers CICD Contractor Interface Control Document CICD Coleman Institute for Cognitive Disabilities (Custom IC Design) tools join Mentor's DFT DFT - discrete Fourier transform tools (Design for Test), ModelSim(R) and the Calibre design-to-silicon platform to offer customers a wide choice in 64-bit computing. The move to 64-bit processing will become more crucial as engineers begin to design at 65nm and below and populate each chip with millions of gates. "Red Hat Enterprise Linux for 64-bit architectures delivers unbelievable performance at a great value, especially for compute-intensive workloads found in the 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. market," said Tim Yeaton, senior vice president of Marketing at Red Hat. "Red Hat is proud to partner with Mentor on this first-class solution for our mutual customers." Mentor Graphics products are also available on Novell Linux SLES (SuSE Linux Enterprise Server) See SuSE Linux. 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 for Xeon-64, and Opteron platforms.
