Article Roundup: Siemens Launches PAVE360 Pre-silicon Autonomous Validation Environment
On May 15 Siemens announced a new pre-silicon autonomous validation environment called PAVE360. PAVE360 provides a comprehensive environment for multi-supplier collaboration across the automotive ecosystem for the development of next-generation automotive chips. PAVE360 also extends digital twin simulation beyond processors to include automotive hardware and software sub-systems, full vehicle models, fusion of sensor data, traffic flows and even the simulation of smart cities through which self-driving cars will ultimately travel.
In this week’s Expert Insights blog, we rounded up articles covering the launch of this revolutionary technology.

Robocar SoCs: Designers’ Worst Nightmare
EE Times
SoC designs for highly automated vehicles are affected by countless variables, each of which can cause costly design re-spins. This iterative process is an SoC designer’s worst nightmare. PAVE360 streamlines design iterations by providing a virtual environment for autonomous SoC verification and validation that supports virtual models of components, vehicles, and even cities.
