EMA Earns Autodesk Simulation Specialization

Rochester, NY (August 14, 2012) – EMA Design Automation (ema-eda.com), one of the world’s largest Electronic Design Automation Value Added Resellers (VARs), today announced that it has earned the new Autodesk Simulation Specialization designation for VARs from Autodesk, Inc., a world leader in 3D design, engineering, and entertainment software. As an Autodesk Specialized Partner, EMA has shown that they have made a significant investment in their people, have a solid business plan specific to their specialization area, have customer references, and can offer a high level of experience and support to customers in the manufacturing industry.

The new Autodesk Partner Specializations enable VARs to highlight and brand their expertise in delivering services in key industry areas. By completing the required curriculum and training, as well as meeting required levels of service and standards set by Autodesk, EMA demonstrates, through their strong customer service and support in sales, what it means to be a trusted adviser to Autodesk customers throughout the world.

“When Autodesk increased their simulation offerings, we saw it as a perfect opportunity to expand our electronics simulation experience into the mechanical realm,” said Manny Marcano, president and CEO of EMA. “Now we can help our customers predict product performance and optimize designs earlier in the design process with a comprehensive set of simulation tools ranging from mechanical stress, vibration, and motion to computational fluid dynamics, plastic injection molding, and multiphysics.”

Companies are using digital simulation more than ever before to meet the challenges associated with the complexity of today’s mechanical designs. The Autodesk simulation software imports most 3D CAD formats, allowing designers to simulate faster because they can take the 3D models they have already created and test them upfront under various conditions. Multiple design variations can quickly be evaluated allowing engineers to experiment with many more alternatives and reach an optimal design faster.

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.
