SoC projects are all about partnerships; hardware and software engineers working together, with a complete ecosystem of supporters.
With this Imperas collaboration, our mutual customers will benefit from the availability of SiFive qualified models that are compatible with the mainstream EDA tool flows.

Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil - PUCRS
At PUCRS, we use Imperas virtual platforms in projects on multiprocessor SoC modeling, power evaluation, and programmability, as well as computer science graduate program courses on SoCs and research architecture. Our research group (Grupo de Apoio ao Projeto de Hardware, or Hardware Design Support Group), also leverages these tools.
