, {' A1 \7 \* R1 fEDA電子自動化廠商—Mentor Graphics明導國際，將於9月6日(星期二)假新竹喜來登大飯店舉辦盛大的技術論壇大會，大會於今年正式更名為Tech Design Forum，有別於以往依明導各個產品作介紹；Tech Design Forum針對特定的設計主題，包括設計到製造流程的整體優化、大規模SoC的設計和測試、客製化暨類比混合訊號的設計方法以及系統級的設計和驗證，結合台積電、GLOBALFOUNDRIES、安謀(ARM)、思源(Springsoft)、三星等產業領航者，以及明導國際來自全球的講師陣容，於會中分享並交流經驗，Tech Design Forum期望成為技術資訊整合的平台，讓所有的設計工程師都可以在此就IC設計的發展與遭遇的挑戰互相討論切磋。

3 q: Y: L. H+ L  z半導體產業發展至今，IC設計公司無不設法推出優異產品以獲得客戶青睞，透過協助客戶增加獲利、得到客戶信賴並維繫更穩定的夥伴關係；Mentor Graphics總裁暨執行長Walden Rhines今年在大會中將以「差異化的價值」為主題，和您一同檢視產品差異化與收益之間的有趣關係；期為產品開發部門、設計工程師以及公司經營者提供更多思考路徑，讓有價值的產出創造出更多的收益。

9 c7 R' d0 @- h1 C本次活動與國內傑出的紙雕藝術家洪新富老師合作，參加大會即可獲得洪新富老師透過實地考察，捕捉生物神韻所發展出的作品，像是栩栩如生的「櫻花鉤吻鮭」、或是獨一無二、身為台灣特有種的「台灣藍鵲」。洪新富老師從四歲開始踏入紙的世界，除了致力開發紙的可能，也不遺餘力在世界舞台上，推廣台灣特有生物之美。明導國際也期待透過這些由紙張幻化的美麗生物，利用可再生的紙資源引導您我對台灣獨特生態的興趣，從而對這片土地投注更多關懷與行動。
