SpringSoft and Pyxis - OpenEngines: Pyxis Technology and SpringSoft will demonstrate a fully hierarchical, advanced custom digital design platform based on SpringSoft's Laker layout editing environment and the Pyxis NexusRoute router. This is the industry's first multi-vendor solution using a shared OpenAccess Run-Time-Model (OA-RTM). Special emphasis will be placed on the use of the “OpenEngines" architecture, which enables users to mix best-in-class point tools in a single Unix process.

The 13th Si2/OpenAccess+ Conference will showcase a wide variety of presentations and demos that will demonstrate recent and pervasive OpenAccess adoption among end-users, IDM's, fabless/fab-lite companies, and EDA companies. The keynote speaker will be Lucio Lanza, a luminary in the EDA industry who has funded numerous EDA startups that use OpenAccess. Click here for the full agenda http://www.si2.org/?page=981.
