The first of a series of 30-minute webcasts by Mentor Graphics went out on 25th May 2010, and the series will run every Tuesday until 6th July. Timing; 09:30BST/10:30CET, repeated at 14:00 BST/15:00CET. Mentor is targeting electronic engineers located in Europe and India. The first talk was by Mentor’s Steve Collis, European specialist for high level design and functional verification, and his topic was “Process, People, and Tools” – his briefing notes say that this is about the importance of processes and planning in changing a design or verification methodology: where the barriers to change are likely to be; and how to increase the chances of success.

Subsequent topics in the series are;
8th June – “Safety critical systems - requirements driven design”
15th June – “Changing the hardware design process with high level synthesis” • 22nd June – “Are we done yet? RTL verification planning and metrics”
6th July – “The engineer's desktop. Room for improvement?”
