Operational Impact
The implementation of Cadence's solution significantly improved Samsung's SSD product development process. The accelerated validation environment provided by Cadence not only increased the validation speed by hundreds of times compared to the traditional simulation but also doubled the productivity of the validation team. This was due to the reduced waiting time between simulations. Moreover, the solution enabled Samsung to find bugs that were previously unreachable using simulation. Given its effectiveness, Samsung plans to deploy the Cadence solution on future projects as well. The Palladium-based validation environment with AVIP can now be ported to any of Samsung's upcoming PCI Express-based SSDs with minimal effort. | |
