Today the faultless and efficient design of high-complex chips with often more than 100 million transistors is one of the biggest challenges in chip design. This cannot be mastered without Electronic Design Automation (EDA). To speed up the necessary intense research, the BMBF promotes this area highly and thus helps to speed up German core competences like automotive and telecommunication.
