I market the OVM/UVM, multi-language verification, and low-power simulator for Cadence, tapping 19 years of experience in verification and software engineering including roles in marketing, product management, applications engineering, and R&D. With eight consecutive Boston Marathons run on the Boston Children’s Hospital Marathon Team, I'm always ready to see who has the fastest verification on the planet!

Joseph Hupcey III
I am a product management director supporting our Silicon Realization product line via Formal and multi-engine verification tools and methodologies. Before going over to "the dark side" (marketing), I worked as an EE in FPGA design, EDA tools for FPGAs and ASICs, and ASIC verification. I have been a marketing guy for over 10 years now, including a stint in consumer electronics (anyone remember the Handspring "eyemodule"?) before returning to the EDA world.

I have been involved in the development of AMS Simulator for the past 11 years. Specific areas of AMS that interest me are functional verification, assertion in mixed-signal and mixed-signal verification challenges in low-power. I'm also intimately involved with software architecture and refactoring aspects of AMS.

I've worked in EDA since 1993 (egads--the interwebs had a lot fewer tubes back then) when I found my true calling as an AE after solving a simulation problem for a very grateful customer at 5:30PM on a Friday so he could leave for his vacation. I've worked for Cadence 2X (this time since 2005) as well as several other smaller companies which have since been absorbed into various collectives.
