PRESENTATION

Convergence of Photonics and Electronics in Design

Photonics and electronics are increasingly converging, physically. However, their design processes remain largely separate, with teams using different tools and fragmented workflows, posing significant challenges and risks for system integration. This presentation will discuss the critical role of design tools, the necessity of co-design and co-simulation, and the latest trends in design automation.
