IPMS: IP Managment From IP Design To Delivery up to Royalty - - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

IPMS: IP Managment From IP Design To Delivery up to Royalty Reporting Gabrièle Saucier Design and Reuse

Outline

• History and Innovaton
• IP Provider :Do you deliver IP to the market ? Enhance your productvity

– Case Study 1: IP provider Staton Starter Kit

• IP Consumer: Do you integrate many IP from many vendors ? Monitor your 3PIP

– Case Study 2: Third Party IP Manager

• Conclusion

History: IP Publishing Challenge

• IP Publishing a D&R Challenge ( startng in 97)

– Commonly used: “IP/product” list as an Excel Sheet (Provider list ofen not available..) – Import/export over frewall ( early request) – Unique (VSIA) format: intractable ??? Diversifed formats needed – Mult applicaton (intranet management): IP reuse hot in 2000

• Required: “Server hosted” Next Generaton Catalog

– Multiformat, Multicatalog, Evolving Format – Importable/ Exportable over a frewall catalogs to companion/partner/client site

History: Innovaton in Cataloguing ?

Evolving Catalog Format in a XML layer with an extensible set of Field Types ( all management needs)

• Mult value atribute, Integer, parametric
• Field Dependent Secton
• Access control and Dedicated Views ( engineering, marketng)
• Hyperlink and URL…
• Hierarchy ( embedded / related)
• Bridge to design DB

And More

• Customizable Search
• Automated Upload from Excel … …
• Import/ Export (over frewall) of fltered catalogs to companion site

Build, Search, Export in an XML layer/Store in Mysql

• Used as web portal
• Used for Internal Management
• Shared Data with Corporate web site

Extension to intranet smart IP Management Dashboards

History:

• IP centric tables ( bug List ,delivery list ,additonal property ( Maturity, claims…)
• Commonly Used: Fixed Format DB Table

Innovaton: Smart configraacle synchronized management “panels “ Extensible supported types

• Date and Alert
• Algorithmic Calculaton (Python)
• Bridge to/ Synchronized with

• Conclusion

IP Provider Intranet Staton StatonnStarter Kit

• Goal :

– Enhance Productvity – Increase Quality and Customer Satsfacton

• How ? Make it available for Sales, Product managers, Engineers

– Which Product Line /Product is available ? – Which product(s) release (.. various confguratons, target nodes ..) has been delivered to whom – Which bug afects which client?

• In Sync with the corporate environment

Basic Implementaton. Starter Kit – Catalog and Three Key Interconnected Management Panels

Easy access of Key data (informaton Documentaton sharing) in the product list Powerful fexible documentaton (Product Family specifc)

• Shelf Delivery :Hierarchy Support :

– A shelf delivery release can include other shelf delivery – “Add On” such as standard cell /add on macro…

• Customer Delivery

– Easy On line client specifc Package creaton – Predefned Package of shelf delivery

• Sponsored Package ( Free on line download )

• Conclusion

Needs and Goals of a global management

• 3PIP monitoring across all organizatonal Units
• Procurement department

– License agreement – Legal restricton – Pricing Negotaton: Fee, royalty scheme

• Engineers need to know

– Which IP have been licensed (key technical details) – Under which type of agreement – Which usage restricton

• 3PIP Engineering Manager

– IP acceptance IP quality

• Finance department

– Payment calculaton & schedule – Expense predicton – Finance Tear sheet

Synchronizaton Badly Needed: IP Life Cycle

Synchronisaton Badly Needed: IP Entry

Third Party IP Entry

• Informaton for designers in a 3PIP IP List (Catalog technology)

– Which IP have been licensed (key technical details ) – Under which type of agreement – Which usage restricton

• Alert about new IP, about Bug ... (Alert technology )
• Controlled Secure access to the IP version (optonal )

– IP Version entry (Packaging Staton) – Download workfow for secure and controlled download (Workfow technology ) – File transfer if distributed locatons (controlled fp/sfp technology)

Synchronizaton Badly Needed: IP Tracing

Which IP in which Product ? Who? Where used ?

• IP version in Product version?

– IP version in SoC version – IP in Package in Board – IP actvated (Fuse technology) in Package in a Board

• Constructve Entry (Product/Project Manager)

– Map IP in Soc (Package) – Map Soc (Package) in product

• Synchronize /Upload existng table

– Bridie to any existni taacle / DB record /BOM

Conclusion

• Managing several IPs from many suppliers needs a global management platorm

– Dedicated to IP in Product – From IP fles to Financial Views

• Synchronized with all related corporate Views

– Outsource – No compettve tool on the market – Use 2 decades of experience .. Use IPMS platorm
