The floating point argument

Blog Post

Abstract

The floating point argument

I am on vacation and, all being well, by the time this posting goes live, I will be sunning myself on a Greek island. A couple of weeks ago, I posted a blog about the use of floating point. My colleague Brooks Moses [who did a guest blog post a while back] made a comment on that posting, pointing out that I had over-simplified my example. I am always happy to get such feedback. It transpired that Brooks…

Open Stand & EDA Standardization

Blog Post

Abstract

Open Stand & EDA Standardization

Five Leading Global Organizations Affirm “The Modern Paradigm for Standards” The EDA industry has seen changes to the international standards paradigm the past few decades. When industry helped launch VHDL with the help of government support, it transferred ongoing maintenance and enhancement to the IEEE when it completed its first version. In addition to anchoring the standard at the IEEE,…
