Denali Kicks-Off 2004 Denali MemCon Series This Week in Taiwan

Yearly Industry Event Expanded from Boston, San Jose, Tokyo to Include Taiwan

Denali Software, Inc., the leading provider of electronic design automation (EDA) products for chip interface design and verification, will kick off the first of four Denali
MemCon events tomorrow in Hsin Chu, Taiwan.
Held annually in Boston, San Jose, Tokyo, Denali MemCon has been expanded
to Taiwan this year and provides a forum for exchanging information about
semiconductor memory and PCI Express technology. It includes discussions on
product roadmaps, technology for power and performance, market trends, design
tools and intellectual property (IP) and advanced system design issues.
Tai Sheng Feng, vice president, technical staff, at UMC (TAIEX: 2303), is
tomorrow's keynote and will discuss, "Semiconductor Foundries: Challenges &
Geographic Competitiveness." Lane Mason, Denali's memory market analyst, will
moderate a panel titled, "What Consumers Want Next!"
Presentations are planned on portable consumer electronics memories
including low-power DDR and Flash. Attendees will learn design considerations
for DDR2 DRAM from experts at leading memory companies, application specific
integrated circuit (ASIC) library suppliers and electronic design automation
(EDA) vendors. Special sessions will be held on design and verification for
PCI Express technology.
In addition to Denali, sponsors are Altera Corporation; Artisan
Components, Inc.; Infineon Technologies AG; Micron Technology, Inc.; UMC; and
Virage Logic Corporation.
"More than 500 designers in Taiwan registered for Denali MemCon," remarks
Mason. "That's a clear message that we're addressing clear and relevant topic
for the Taiwan market."
