STMicroelectronics’ Asia Pacific Design Centre Uses AMD Opteron™ Processor-based Sun Fire™ Grid Computing to Increase Design Speed by Four Times
When developing new technologies, time-to-market is a critical competitive factor for STMicroelectronics (ST). If the design cycle is delayed, additional computer resources are needed to maintain schedules, resulting in increasing IT cost and complexity. To alleviate already taxed systems, appropriate resource allocation was a key factor in the decision-making process.
