ANAHEIM, CA — Cloud computing for EDA work may still be in the clouds but in three to five years it will occupy up to 20 percent of design transactions between major EDA vendors and their customers.
That conclusion was reached at the Design Automation Conference here where the tone for cloud computing was set by IBM's vice president of innovation. In his Wednesday June 16 keynote Bernie Meyerson predicted that in 5 to 10 years time it will be the dominant medium used by chip designers, "due to IT spending growing at unstainable rates."
"There has been an accelerating and seemingly insatiable need for IT resources, driven by the emergence of the ‘Internet of Things’," said Meyerson. This is forcing even the EDA world to explore emerging compute paradigms, such as cloud computing.
