Data management platform aids
semiconductor design
DesignSync 5.0 allows organisations to manage design data as cohesive blocks rather than as tens of thousands of individual files, streamlining development and eliminating costly errors.
Dassault Systemes has released three new solutions that improve semiconductor business performance Enovia MatrixOne's Synchronicity DesignSync 5.0 is the newest version of the company's semiconductor design data management platform and is the first unified design data management (DDM) system to span the entire semiconductor design chain, from specification through the completed integrated circuit

Upgrade takes product lifecycle management further
Dassault Systemes and IBM are releasing Version 5 Release 13 (V5R13) of their product lifecycle management (PLM) portfolio, comprising Catia, Enovia and Smarteam.
DesignSync 5.0 features a module-based design framework that helps companies more quickly deliver increasingly complex semiconductor products, while collaborating efficiently across multiple sites, time zones, tools, projects and processes.
Using DesignSync 5.0, organisations can manage design data as cohesive blocks rather than as tens of thousands of individual files, streamlining development, eliminating costly errors, and dramatically shortening time to market.
"Semiconductor companies are faced with an ever-increasing demand for more complex products, quicker delivery, and greater levels of functionality on each chip", said Stephane Declee, Vice President of Enovia RandD.

"With DesignSync 5.0 Enovia is delivering a technology breakthrough with our module-based design data management solution which enables individual design teams distributed across the design chain to independently develop IP modules, while the integration of multiple modules can be managed at a higher level of abstraction".
"Inefficient and error-prone manual integration procedures can be completely eliminated, leading to faster time to market with higher-quality designs".
Also newly available, the MatrixOne Semiconductor AcceleratorT for IP Management and the MatrixOne Semiconductor AcceleratorT for Team Collaboration are the latest in a series of solutions from Enovia MatrixOne that enable semiconductor customers to rapidly meet unique product development challenges while speeding PLM deployment and easing user adoption.
The new semiconductor accelerators are built on the Enovia MatrixOne PLM platform and are seamlessly integrated with MatrixOne's Synchronicity DesignSync solution.
They extend the value of DesignSync 5.0 by bundling semiconductor business process applications with industry-specific terminology, data models, pre-defined work processes, reports and role-based user interfaces.
According to Enovia CEO Joel Lemke, "Companies looking to be better than these industry norms and positively impact design cycle time need well-managed team collaboration, issue management and tools to allow them to rapidly react to issues".
"These new Enovia semiconductor design data management solutions help our customers gain a competitive advantage through accelerated development and shortened time to market".
