Moshe Gavrielov - Executive Vice President and General Manager, Verification Division, Cadence Design Systems, Inc.

As we move from 65nm- to 45nm-based SoCs and beyond, we must dramatically expand the scope of the verification and next-generation digital design and implementation processes to avoid re-spins and expensive recalls. System-level complexities will increase the need for enterprise-wide verification solutions that link together and manage the hardware, software and system integration, and validation processes across many specialists. New interdependencies between verification, power management, test and physical design will increase the need for concurrent management of previously sequential processes isolated across many specialists. Moshe Gavrielov of Cadence Design Systems will discuss this new multi-specialist, enterprise-wide approach to automating and managing processes that promises to dramatically change the way that complex, advanced SoC IC designs are brought to market.

Moshe Gavrielov serves as Cadence Executive Vice President and General Manager, reporting to Michael J. Fister, President and CEO. He is responsible for the company's Verification Division.

Gavrielov has over 25 years of technology and business management experience, including serving as CEO of Verisity, Ltd. before joining Cadence in April 2005. Prior to joining Verisity, he worked nine years at LSI Logic, where he held several executive management positions. Those positions included executive vice president of the products organization, senior vice president of international markets, general manager of LSI Logic Europe and general manager of the ASIC division. Gavrielov received his Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering and a Masters degree in computer science from the Israel Institute of Technology (Technion) in Haifa, Israel.
