AI-Driven Automated Approach to Chip Design—Delivering Improved PPA and Productivity. Engineering teams are overloaded and need help to keep up with the ever-increasing demands on chip designs. The Cadence Cerebrus Intelligent Chip Explorer is a revolutionary, artificial intelligence (AI)-driven, automated approach to chip design flow optimization. Block engineers specify the design goals, and generative AI features within Cadence Cerebrus will intelligently optimize the design to meet these power, performance, and area (PPA) goals in a completely automated way. By adopting Cadence Cerebrus, it is possible for engineers to concurrently optimize the flow for multiple blocks, which is especially important for the large, complex system-on-chip (SoC) designs needed for today’s ever more powerful electronic systems. Additionally, through the Cadence Cerebrus full-flow reinforcement learning technology and large language model (LLM) capabilities in Cadence.AI Generative AI Platform, engineering team productivity is greatly improved.

Accelerate Time to Market and Lower Design Risk Through Generative AI-Driven Multiphysics Analysis and Optimization. The Cadence Optimality Intelligent System Explorer, an application of the Cadence. AI Generative AI Platform, is AI-driven multiphysics optimization software that enables analysis and optimization realization of electronic systems. With the increasing complexity of electronic system design and greater performance requirements, Optimality Explorer breaks through the limitations of the conventional human-intensive optimization process by replacing a traditional interactive flow of design, test, and refine loop with generative AI-driven technology that results in the optimal system design solution expeditiously and without compromising accuracy.

A streamlined CFD workflow for design, multidisciplinary analysis and optimization in a single environment. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) industry faces increasing demand for efficiency, fidelity, and speed. Don’t settle for tried-and-true solutions when you step into environments that have yet to be developed. Improved real behavioral modeling of systems yields greater degrees of fidelity and security for the products you send out into the world. The requirements for multidisciplinary modeling, analysis, and optimization are vast and include: Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) coupling flow and heat transfer, Fluid-structure interactions (FSI), Fluid-chemistry and multiphase interactions such as combustion, Aeroacoustics coupling flow and noise

Cadence Fidelity Pointwise utilizes industry leading mesh generation techniques as well as geometry model preparation capabilities for high fidelity characterization of the fluid domain. If you ask any engineer or computational fluid dynamics (CFD) enthusiast, meshing is the most time-intensive part of the CFD workflow with one of the highest impacts. We know that the process can be time-intensive but is vital to ensuring high-accuracy and high-efficiency CFD simulations moving forward. Fidelity Pointwise doesn’t settle just for industry leading CFD meshing. One of our greatest points of pride in Fidelity Pointwise is its capacity to integrate into just about any CFD simulation workflow. Through our mesh export and import tools and pre-built relationships with other strong solvers and simulation tools, you can trust that Fidelity Pointwise will enhance existing workflows. The entire team dedicated to supporting and advancing Fidelity Pointwise is deeply connected to the meshing community and involved in industry roundtables, panels, and influential guidelines like the CFD 2030 plan With Pointwise you can trust in progress.

Accelerated Large Eddy Simulation CFD for Your Toughest Design Challenges. The Fidelity CharLES solver is the industry’s first high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver that expands the practical application of large eddy simulations (LES) to a broad range of engineering applications in aerospace, automotive, and turbomachinery. Designed to tackle the toughest fluid dynamics challenges, it accurately predicts traditionally complex problems for CFD in aeroacoustics, aerodynamics, combustion, heat transfer, and multiphase. High-fidelity LES simulations deliver world-class accuracy and stability, but practical applications of the technology have traditionally been limited due to the cost—a single simulation can consume thousands of CPU cores for days. 

Cadence Fidelity Fine Design3D is a unique computational fluid dynamics (CFD) optimization application that accelerates the discovery of optimal designs by using sophisticated machine learning (ML) algorithms to automate design space exploration. By combining multi-objective optimization and uncertainty quantification, engineers can design under real-world conditions and account for variations in input conditions, geometry, and other factors, while ensuring performance stays within the design parameters.
