About Service, comparison is no reason
Business Models of the software industry, with its specific split
between services and products, are misleading for the Virtual Component
industry and SoC Integration including Verification Components. These
industries deserve separate analysis of their value chains, because
software applications end-up run on its target computer systems, while
design solutions actually drive the fabrication of their target systems-on-chip.
Functional
Verification expertise is on the critical path leading to the existence
itself of these systems, not just enriching them with possibly faulty
but replaceable applications as traditional software applications do.
Virtual
Test and Diagnostics are critical for Time-To-Fab and Time-To-Market
and in no way replaceable with ancillary work-force: they require
state-of-the-art EDA tools and skilled contributors. To some extent,
while the software
industry may content itself with mass-trained professionals with
average competency, microelectronics verification requires analytical
skills
and emerging methods.
Refer to SEIP and SoC
Integration!
Such a strategy aims at a steady and long-lasting expansion, which
explains the associated tactics as the Provider of Mixed Signal Virtual
Components with Internet-age Services for Microelectronics.
It is founded on a fervently developed enterprise culture, mature and
experienced in the pursuit of Added Value Opportunities, top in Return
on Equities.
The DOLPHIN offering, with the combined strengths of the product activities and of the service activities, especially in Delegation, enables the composite formula of choice for ensuring System-on-Chip Integration under end-user's control by providing:
- Logic, Analog and Memory Virtual Components and SIP-focused EDA
applications
- Contract Service for custom development, both at the level of
specific macrocell and at the level of SoC integration,
- Engineering Assistance by delegated consultants, with expertise
ranging from macrocell or SoC specification to final test.
