Bluespec Inc., developers of the industry's only general purpose high-level synthesis solution, announced it has entered into an agreement with CYBERNET SYSTEMS Co., Ltd., based in Tokyo, as its distributor in Japan.
CYBERNET, a leading distributor of CAE, EDA and IT tools in Japan, currently represents leading U.S.-based companies such as Cadence and The MathWorks. Under the new agreement, CYBERNET will market, sell and support Bluespec’s high-level synthesis and simulation toolsets to Japan’s leading semiconductor and systems companies.
“CYBERNET, with its excellent customer reputation, solid understanding of the EDA market and substantial sales, training and consulting services infrastructure, makes a terrific Bluespec partner to enter the Japanese market,” said Charlie Hauck, CEO of Bluespec, Inc. “Expecting to build on our strong customer momentum in North America, Europe and India, we are excited to be able to offer Japan the industry’s only synthesizable models, testbenches and general purpose high-level implementations, supporting both control and algorithmic IP.”
“Our customers are looking for ways to significantly improve verification and accelerate software development. By enabling a dramatic improvement in both design productivity and quality, Bluespec now makes FPGA emulation a viable option for mainstream development including architectural exploration, verification and software development,” said Kuniaki Tanaka, president of CYBERNET SYSTEMS.
“With a silicon-proven solution that addresses our customers’ fundamental issues, Bluespec is an important addition to our EDA portfolio and part of our strategy to be the leading vendor of EDA tools in Japan.”
“Bluespec will be an excellent fit for the Japanese market, with its emphasis on avoiding issues by building quality into design,” said Arklin Kee, vice president of business development for Bluespec, Inc. “CYBERNET’s decision to represent Bluespec reinforces our confidence in the demand we expect for our technology from this important market.”
