On July 3, an unusual exhibit will open up at the Barbican arts venue in London. Called “Digital Revolution,” it’s billed as “an immersive exhibition of art, design, film, music, and videogames.” It will feature the work of established artists, including will.i.am and Zach Lieberman, but it also will introduce the world to a new artist chosen by Google.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
