EDA Standard Development Today GTO2003EXT.ppt 5/19/2018 EDA Standard Development Today Ad-hoc groups provide Early discussion and planning Determine market need First draft and beta test Act as mentor IEEE Standard Process Initiate Standard Form WG based on previous work Use draft as basis for final std. Ballot Standard Use entity balloting for fast response Use IEEE resources for leverage and efficiency Use mentor to promote, fund, proliferate Get active feedback on utilization and further industry needs Accellera Si2 SPIRIT

CEDA Study Group Findings GTO2003EXT.ppt 5/19/2018 CEDA Study Group Findings Need ability to move fast in early stages Need open inclusive process for best ideas Standards require ecosystem to have impact IP has emerged as important issue Standards development requires funding Not always aware of best IEEE procedures IEEE allows conflicting competing standards

CEDA Objectives Host advisory group of industry executives GTO2003EXT.ppt 5/19/2018 CEDA Objectives Host advisory group of industry executives Provide input to Council projects Advise on EDA standards needs and development Engage EDA standard consortia Coordinate activities to fill gaps and avoid duplication Get Consortia and IEEE cooperating earlier Leverage DASC for EDA Standards development Formalize input to DASC planning 5
