The document discusses using high-level synthesis (HLS) to speed up the design process. It recommends a two-step approach: first using HLS to generate prototypes on FPGAs from a high-level model, then using HLS to generate the final product design for an ASIC. HLS shortens development time, makes changes easier to incorporate, and allows exploring different implementations. While HLS tools have matured, adopting the new flow requires expertise and overcoming ramp-up challenges.

Advanced engineering practices to achieve higher agility quotient v1.0
The document discusses measuring and improving the agility quotient of development teams. It describes an eight-area framework for assessing a team's agility, including areas like engineering practices, collaboration, and requirements. It then gives an example of applying practices like continuous integration, automated testing, code refactoring, and requirements tracking to improve the agility of a telecom team developing legacy code. These practices increased the team's agility quotient and led to on-time delivery of features, fewer defects, and better technical skills.
AgileIteration
Iteration refers to the repetitive process of developing software in cycles. Short iterations allow for stakeholder feedback throughout development to address changes early. Faster iterations provide metrics for process improvement and reduce costs by delivering value to customers sooner, lowering overall project expenses. Iterative development with early and frequent feedback helps ensure the software being built satisfies customer needs.
Chapter 2 software_development_life_cycle_models
This document discusses various software development life cycle models. It begins by defining the software life cycle as the period from when a software product is conceived to when it is no longer available for use, typically including requirements, design, implementation, testing, installation, operation and maintenance, and retirement phases.
It then examines the "build and fix" model, waterfall model, iterative enhancement model, rapid application development model, evolutionary process model, prototyping model, spiral model, and unified process. For each model, it provides a brief overview and discusses their advantages and disadvantages. It concludes by noting that the selection of a life cycle model depends on the requirements, development team, users, and project type and associated risks.
Unified process
The document provides an introduction to the Rational Unified Process (RUP). It discusses what a software engineering process is, limitations of the waterfall model, and an overview of RUP. RUP is an iterative software development process framework that is use case driven and architecture-centric. It consists of four main phases - inception, elaboration, construction, and transition - with milestones used to transition between phases. The goal is to deliver working software incrementally throughout the project lifetime.

This document discusses different software development life cycle (SDLC) models. It describes the waterfall model as the first introduced process model where each phase must be completed before the next begins. The spiral model is presented as a combination of waterfall and risk analysis, with iterative cycles to reduce risk. The iterative enhancement model implements parts of software in cycles to identify further requirements through review.
DevOps Continuous Testing and LaaS – The Perfect Match for SDN
Without continuous testing there is no continuous delivery. Everyone in DevOps talks about continuous integration and continuous delivery but those are just two ends of the DevOps pipeline. In the middle of DevOpsis continuous testing (CT), and many organizations are struggling to implement continuous testing effectively. Lab-As-A- Service (LaaS) enhances CT with dynamic on-demand self-serve test topologies. CT together with LAAS make a powerful combination that perfectly serves complex software development and delivery pipelines.
Software Defined Networks (SDNs) turn the network into a flexible configurable system of software components and connections which is powerful but presents new complexities and challenges for network software development, delivery and deployments.
This talk explains how DevOps best practices for continuous testing when combined with LaaS are make an excellent combination to accelerate SDN realization and operations. The talk describes people, process and products required for SDN continuous testing and online self-service continuous lab and testing services.

Mullbery& veriest track g
This document discusses the dangers of believing "tall tales" or myths when planning, designing, and verifying FPGA implementations. It contrasts the tall tales with expert opinions on best practices. The tall tales suggest that FPGA projects do not require detailed planning, that FPGA design is similar to ASIC design, and that extensive verification is not needed. However, the expert opinions provided emphasize that early FPGA process involvement, an understanding of the FPGA architecture, and a tailored verification strategy are essential for successful FPGA projects. The summary is that while tall tales sound nice, expertise and tools are needed to properly plan, design, and verify FPGA solutions.

Timing¬Driven Variation¬Aware NonuniformClock Mesh Synthesis
The document describes a technique for timing-driven variation-aware nonuniform clock mesh synthesis. The technique involves four main stages: 1) deriving a timing constraint graph from static timing analysis, 2) generating a skew map of rectangular regions with different skew requirements, 3) removing overlapping rectangles to generate non-overlapping polygons, and 4) generating a clock mesh for each polygon where mesh density satisfies skew variations. The technique aims to generate a clock mesh that satisfies maximum skew variation requirements while considering process, voltage, and temperature variations.
Arm updated track h
The document discusses when it makes sense for a company to leverage external intellectual property (IP) versus developing everything internally. It provides 10 factors to consider in the decision, including expertise, functionality, standardization, strategy, ecosystem, time-to-market, cost effectiveness, roadmap, market dynamics, and risk. While developing all IP internally can provide more control, the reality is more complex given technical requirements, time and cost constraints, ecosystem dependencies, and market dynamics. The key is to evaluate each potential use of external IP across these factors and work backwards from customer needs to place strategic bets that leverage partnerships and expertise.

C:\fakepath\micrologic track c
The document discusses the challenges of ensuring reliability at the nanometer scale in integrated circuit design. As process sizes shrink and complexity increases, new reliability issues emerge such as hot electron effects, oxide degradation, electromigration, latchup, electrostatic discharge, voltage drop, and soft errors. Current verification flows check for reliability issues after blocks are designed but finding problems late leads to redesign delays. The document proposes performing early reliability analysis during layout construction to detect problems earlier when fixes are easier and help designs reach signoff checks with fewer issues. This includes analyzing critical signals and looking ahead during construction to create signoff-ready designs from the start.

Software testing is an investigation conducted to provide stakeholders with information about the quality of the product or service under test.
Software testing can also provide an objective, independent view of the software to allow the business to appreciate and understand the risks of software implementation.
Why is Software Testing Important to a business?
Software testing is a process to determine the quality of the software developed by a developer or programmer. It is a methodological study intended to evaluate the quality-related information of the product. Understanding of the important features and advantages of software testing helps businesses in their day-to-day activities.
Testing can be done in two ways, manual testing and automated testing. Manual software testing is done by human testers, who manually check the code and report bugs in it. In case of automated testing, testing is performed by a computer using software such as WinRunner, LoadRunner, etc.

A maturing of the agile software development methodology, DevOps unites developers and IT operations to release high quality code into solidly performing environments more rapidly than is possible with traditional developer-to-ops handoffs. It solves a basic problem that arises with agile methodology, namely that quickly producing new code is of little use if it cannot be deployed on reliable infrastructure.
We nvestigate the ways that DevOps can generate a return on investment (ROI) for an organization that makes DevOps part of its IT strategy. DevOps certainly has great potential for business impact, with beneficial effects reaching far beyond the IT department. The ability to release high quality code efficiently confers benefits on both the income and expense sides of a business, measurable in hard dollars as well as intangible advantages such as increased brand equity.
Getting DevOps to pay off is far from a push-button process, however. CloudMunch offers a number of suggested practices based on its experience in DevOps with large enterprises. Business success with DevOps involves choreographing between people, organizational culture and the DevOps platform and tools. The paper explores practices related to setting up DevOps so that everyone on both Dev and Ops teams can get early, instant feedback on project work. In addition, it looks at practices to ensure that DevOps tools and processes can access the entire application lifecycle, which is critical to DevOps work.
ppt on sOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE
The document discusses the software development life cycle (SDLC). It describes the typical phases of SDLC including problem definition, program design, coding, debugging, testing, documentation, maintenance, and extension/redesign. It also covers different SDLC models like waterfall, prototyping, and agile development. The SDLC process is best for structured environments while iterative models work better for web and e-commerce projects where frequent stakeholder feedback is needed.

Continous integration-leon-kehl-2010
This document discusses continuous integration (CI), including its definition, history, best practices, tools, advantages, and challenges. It also provides a case study example of successfully applying CI to an existing legacy application through incremental changes, like optimizing build times and eliminating broken builds. The key is finding simple, defensible approaches and looking for opportunities to gradually move towards CI rather than expecting overnight changes.

Software development life cycle.
The document discusses the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) which is a methodology for developing high quality software through defined processes and phases. It describes the typical phases of SDLC as requirement analysis and planning, defining requirements, software design, development, testing, and deployment. Popular SDLC models include waterfall, iterative, spiral, incremental, and prototype models. Each phase and model is then explained in more detail over the course of the document.
S.D.L.C (Software Development Life Cycle.)
The document discusses the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), which provides an overall framework for managing the software development process. There are two main approaches to the SDLC - predictive and adaptive. All projects use some variation of the SDLC, which typically includes phases like requirements definition, design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance. Common SDLC models discussed include waterfall, incremental, spiral, and agile methods. The strengths and weaknesses of different models are compared.
