Shane, >>But designing and manufacturing a system-on-a-chip is one of the most
challenging projects facing semiconductor companies. The reason is that
combining different functions on to the same chip requires sophisticated
software design tools that can also simulate the operation of the finished chip.<<

Amen. In my time I did a fair amount of baseball and soccer coaching. My assistant coach 12 years ago for the little league team was the then vice president of engineering at LSI. Sometimes we'd talk business. He told me even back then that LSI was putting design centers in around the world. The idea is to get their (LSI's) tools and engineers as close to their customers as possible. "If you can't move Mohammed to the mountain, you move the mountain to Mohammed."
