We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Design Flow",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Software for early system architecture exploration from
CoFluent Design, which we summarised at the time by saying "CoFluent Studio enables decision making at the early project stage due to a higher level of abstraction that simplifies and speeds architectural modification".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release UK workshop for HFSS to be held in June from
Ansoft Europe: "Free one-day event for HFSS users is focused on extracting the benefits from HFSS and its options".
In April 2007, we covered the news from Hardi Electronics
concerning its ASIC prototyping boards
- take a look at fourth generation of ASIC prototyping boards
which says: "HAPS-50, the fourth generation of ASIC prototyping boards in the HAPS series, has been released by Hardi Electronics".
Take a look also at the news release from Aldec, Increased platform support from simulation tool,
as well as Solving RF and microwave design problems easier from Flomerics,
and Integrated board testing and circuit analysis from National Instruments.
