Welcome to the Electronic Design Automation (EDA) OS
Roadmap page. This pages consists of two parts: - EDA
Industry OS Roadmap presents
guidelines for which platforms EDA vendors and customers should target for design
starts. The roadmap shows when key EDA flows on flagship products support an
OS. The goal is to show when a complete industry tool flow will be ready on the
latest OS. Please refer to the individual company's platform support page for
information on specific product and company support of an OS and platform end-of-life
plans for that company. Links to the individual OS support pages are provided below.
As an ongoing initiative, this roadmap is updated semi-annually.
- Support
Plans of EDA Companies is a one-stop location for EDA companies and their
customers to find out which OS/compute platforms are supported by EDA Consortium
member companies. Select the platform support page for each of your vendors for
details on their platform support by product and to find out their end-of-life
plans for a particular platform. Learn
