Companies speak about the advantage of using IP-XACT

Momentum continues to build behind support of the IP-XACT specification. Having established a trade-show reputation for demonstrated IP-XACT enabled products by our members, we are now providing Web access to their technology overviews and testimonials. With an introduction by Ralph von Vignau, eleven of our members speak about adoption of IP-XACT in their tools and customers' design flows. These interviews were completed by Demos on Demand at the open, general meeting at the 44th Design Automation Conference in June 2007. View the videos here.
