'Top-down' design leadership boosts Synopsys' bottom line

Article Abstract:

There is growing interest in the shares of high level design automation (HLDA) pioneer Synopsys Inc. With its leadership in HLDA technology, analysts feel that investing in Synopsys' shares at 23 1/4 points could prove to be veryrewarding. The complexity of integrated circuit and electronic system design and the ability of HLDA software to lower product development time are two factors responsible for continued interest in HLDA. The advantage of Synopsys in HLDA technology should be sustained through a marketing and distribution strategy aimed at end users and product vendors.
