Description

Modern chip designs incorporate a wide range of Arm components to construct a full system, each part having an impact on the overall system performance.

Whether it is a car engine monitor, a VR headset or a network server, it is critical that all Arm componentsperform well when combined into systems.

The Central Technologies Group (CTG) at Arm drives the development of IP across the company. Even before a new product is conceived, system models are constructed to examine the advantages of potential new architecturalfeatures.

As system modelling engineers, we define and examine new designs within a full system context prior to commitment to an RTL product.

Identifying issues early is key to deliver world-class IP used in billions of products.
