"Mentor Graphics is a known leader in the hardware/software coverification space, and we are pleased to offer our customers this important and cost-saving package".
"Optimising the performance of key software algorithms is critical for DSP system development", said Serge Leef, General Manager, SoC Verification Division, Mentor Graphics.
"The performance profiling features of Seamless and the StarCore Processor models provide an early, accurate analysis, ensuring confidence that specifications are being met".
