Artificial Intelligence has been all the buzz lately, and the technology now goes hand-in-hand with the complex modeling simulations that are required for efficient semiconductor chip design. Computer simulations and computational software are critical for chip design, and the industry has been harnessing the power of these digital twins of chips for decades, as complexity has scaled to hundreds of billions of transistors and perhaps trillions of transistors in the not-so distant future. In fact, the reality of trillion transistor chips is something that Dr. Anirudh Devgan of Cadence Design Systems feels is attainable by the year 2030, though he and his company have a vision of bringing the power of simulation, modeling and computational software to far more than just semiconductor chip design.
