1.1 Fastest growing segment:
The Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) segment of the semiconductor fabrication software market includes tools used for engineering tasks, such as electronic system level (ESL) simulation, register transfer level (RTL) simulation, hardware-assisted verification, synthesis, analysis, and various other tools. These tools are essential for solving complex engineering problems, including partial differential equations and boundary value problems, or deriving algorithms for fluid flows and flight tests. CAE tools are then translated into manufacturing instructions using Electronic Design Automation (EDA) software. ESL tools are particularly significant, as they follow a system-level approach, enabling faster design, verification, and simulation at lower costs and in less time. RTL tools help end-users verify logic designs using an RTL language and provide an abstract of complex circuit diagrams for extracting root-level circuit writings. The CAE segment is expected to grow slowly during the forecast period due to the widespread use and contractual business model of EDA software among users.
