Abstract

EDA has made possible the routine design of chips with billions of nano-scale devices, arguably the most complex man-made systems to date. However, improved quantitative understanding of biological and environmental systems has revealed complexities far beyond those in human-engineered systems. Prof de Micheli will show how EDA and CAD technologies are well-positioned to impact these new engineering frontiers.
