Description

Ansys PowerArtist stands out as the preferred RTL design-for-power solution for top low-power semiconductor firms, offering essential tools for early power analysis and mitigation. The platform features advanced physically-aware RTL power accuracy, interactive debugging for power issues, and methods for analysis-driven power reduction, along with unique metrics that help in monitoring power efficiency and vector coverage. It allows for quick power profiling of real workloads and ensures seamless integration of RTL-to-physical power grid integrity. With its innovative physically-aware modeling, PowerArtist provides reliable RTL power accuracy with rapid turnaround times, empowering semiconductor companies to make informed early-stage decisions. Waiting until after synthesis to analyze power consumption is no longer acceptable; design teams depend on PowerArtist to dissect power usage, pinpoint inefficient RTL code, and minimize unnecessary toggles throughout the design process. This capability enables them to efficiently profile millions of cycles, ultimately leading to more optimized and effective designs.

Description

Houdini was designed from the ground up to empower artists to work freely, create multiple iterations, and quickly share workflows with their colleagues. Houdini stores every action in a node. These nodes are "wired" into networks that define a "recipe", which can be tweaked to improve the outcome, then repeated to create unique results. Houdini's procedural nature is due to the ability of nodes to be saved or to pass information (in the form of attributes) down the chain. Houdini's unique nodes are what make it powerful. However, there are many viewport and shelf tools which allow for artist-friendly interaction. Behind the scenes, Houdini creates the networks and nodes for you. Houdini allows artists to explore new creative paths, as it is easy for them to branch off to explore other solutions.
