| | Innovation in the EDA Business Need Not Be an Oxymoron
|
| | Innovation in EDA is often thought to happen in an isolated eureka moment experienced by a superstar. As many of us have found out the hard way, such events are all too rare, and in any case do not create business success. People with a common goal and passion often together share the breakthrough ideas and their results. To sustain the level of innovation for EDA to survive, we should first recognize that it is a team effort, and then that potential breakthroughs and even just necessary progress can be part of a managed process. A renewable model for EDA innovation that is proving successful involves five steps in progression: problem to prototype, to partnership, to product and, finally, to proliferation.
