Agentic AI and the rise of the design and verification scientist
When: Tuesday, July 28 | 5:00 PM - 5:45 PM
Where: Long Beach Convention Center
The complexity of modern SoC design has outpaced our methodologies — and the wall between design and verification has made it worse. Agentic AI solves both. Autonomous systems that reason, plan, and adapt across the chip development lifecycle don't just accelerate workflows — they dissolve boundaries between creation and validation entirely. Semantic layers unite isolated EDA tools into collaborative, context-aware partners, giving rise to the Design & Verification Scientist: an engineer orchestrating intelligence across the full flow to achieve trusted RTL signoff at unprecedented speed and confidence. The silo era is ending. The scientist era is beginning.
What you will learn
- The mechanics of agentic AI: learn how autonomous systems use reasoning, planning, and adaptation to move beyond simple automation
- Bridging gaps between functional design & verification: Learn how "semantic layers" integrate previously isolated tools into a unified, collaborative ecosystem
- The emergence of the Design & Verification scientist: Understand the evolving role of the engineer as an orchestrator of AI intelligence to achieve closure with unprecedented speed and confidence
Who should attend
- Functional logic design engineers and managers
- Functional verification engineers and managers
- Project managers of IP, SoC, 3D IC, and/or systems development
