Cadence Announces 2007 Worldwide CDNLive! User Conferences To Launch In Europe

Cadence Design Systems, Inc. announced that the first of seven worldwide CDNLive! User Conferences will be held at the ArabellaSheraton Grand Hotel on May 14-16, 2007. Along with keynote presentations by Mike Fister, president and CEO of Cadence, and René Penning de Vries, senior vice president and chief technology officer for NXP Semiconductors, the second annual CDNLive! EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) User Conference features a variety of opportunities for design engineering experts to strengthen business relationships, share techniques and best practices, and discover holistic solutions to emerging design challenges. The theme of this year's conference is 'Connect', which emphasizes the networking and information-sharing value of the annual event.

"The goal of the Cadence Designer Network and CDNLive! is to deliver a compelling conference program, rich in technical content which provides the opportunity for customers to connect and share personal experiences and expertise with peers and Cadence developers," said Sean Redmond, vice president for EMEA at Cadence. "It is a great place for our technology users to learn new approaches and to develop innovative strategies and tactics to meet their individual design challenges."

More than 3,400 Cadence users are expected to participate in the CDNLive! User Conferences worldwide this year, an increase of 15 percent over last year. The lineup of CDNLive! User Conferences throughout 2007 also includes events in Shanghai (July), Tokyo (July 12-13), San Jose (Sept.10-12), Bangalore (Oct. 11-12), Tel Aviv (Nov. 5) and Hsin-Chu, Taiwan (Nov. 13).

At CDNLive! users learn about the latest insights on complex electronic design automation issues, solutions to address the anticipated IC design challenges of tomorrow as well as practical techniques and tips from other users, power users, domain experts and Cadence technologists to further their design skills.

The CDNLive! User Conferences may include presentations on product roadmaps and strategies from leaders in the worldwide electronics industry. Attendees will also have plenty of opportunity for interactive dialog with the Cadence experts who develop the breakthrough solutions designers rely on. Or, they can attend the many original presentations of user-authored technical papers on state-of-the-art semiconductor design techniques and best practices. Other highlights of the events include a rich array of interactive 'techtorials' for all areas of analog and digital design, implementation and verification, packaging and board design, as well as multiple panels and forums. At some locations, a Designer Expo featuring exhibits from more than 20 companies that engage in joint development projects with Cadence, will be held in parallel with the conference's technical events.

Hundreds of user-authored papers have been submitted for review and presentation at CDNLive! User Conferences in 2007. More than 60 technical papers have been selected for presentation at the CDNLive! EMEA User Conference alone. Closing dates for the Call for Papers vary by location; see http://www.cadence.com/ for more information.
