Mentor Consulting is the leader in worldwide semiconductor intellectual property services and maintenance and a provider of innovative solutions addressing today's design and verification challenges. Additional consulting is also available for the development of test environments and for the analysis of results. Prices for emulator access vary by the required hardware configuration. The price of emulation services begins at $26,000 per week, which includes remote emulator access and one full-time consultant to assist in test execution. For example, Mentor Graphics has recently received the opinion of the International Trade Commission that remote access to certain Meta emulation systems located outside the United States would not violate existing ITC orders. As a result of recent litigation, Mentor Graphics believes that offering remote access to its emulation technology, located exclusively outside the United States, will allow its customers to take advantage of Mentor's technology while adhering to existing court rulings. Mentor Graphics and Cadence Design Systems have been involved in extensive patent infringement litigation concerning their respective emulation systems. Ease-of-use and faster system compile time allow developers to more rapidly incorporate bug fixes into their designs and re-test them, significantly speeding time to market. These emulation services are based on the Mentor Graphics market-leading emulation products, featuring superior ease of use and system compile time. ``By extending our offerings to include system verification with emulation services, we aim at making it easier for our customers worldwide to take advantage of our core technology to speed their time-to-market.'' ``Customers continue to need the power of system-on-chip emulation to complete their difficult and complex system designs,'' said Eric Selosse, general manager of the Mentor Graphics Meta Systems division. These offerings ensure that Mentor Consulting can provide the fullest range of verification solutions to meet the needs of their customers. Additionally, customers can work with Mentor Consulting to develop full in-circuit system verification environments, including custom in-circuit test boards and functional test suites. With accelerated verification, customers can take advantage of the significant performance improvements which hardware emulators offer over software-based simulation solutions. Mentor Consulting is now adding to these solutions the capabilities of accelerated verification and custom in-circuit emulation, through interactive or batch mode remote access to Mentor Graphics® emulation hardware. The system verification services offered by Mentor Consulting provide customers with expertise to assist in the adoption and application of advanced functional verification methodologies. The offering allows customers to take advantage of the company's market-leading Meta emulation technology on a project basis, without making a large capital commitment. WILSONVILLE, Ore.-(BUSINESS WIRE)-May 21, 2001-Mentor Graphics Corporation (Nasdaq: MENT) today announced that it is extending its system verification consulting offering by providing emulation services to customers on a worldwide basis. Siemens said it now had all software that its customers needed to develop complex electronic machinery such as aeroplanes, trains and cars.Mentor Graphics Launches Emulation Services Worldwide Mentor Graphics makes software that helps semiconductor companies design and test their chips before they manufacture them and represents Siemens’s biggest deal in the industrial software sector since it bought UGS for $3.5 billion in 2007. Kaeser has so far managed to reassure investors that he will improve on his predecessor Peter Loescher’s weak track record on making acquisitions pay off in the longer run. Siemens Chief Executive Joe Kaeser has set out to reshape the group, a household name in Germany, to make it more profitable and agile by selling off non-core businesses and investing in areas such as software that promise faster growth and fatter margins. Siemens will pay Mentor Graphics shareholders $37.25 per share, a 21-percent premium to Friday’s closing price, and expects to fund the deal from cash reserves, it said on Monday.
