_] [_ -or-
A Census of 338 Engineers on Design Verification Tool Use
by John Cooley
"In 5 years Cadence will have killed 'e', either on purpose or by
running the Verisity tools and support into the ground."
- Michiel Vandenbroek of China Core Technology Ltd.
"We use Synopsys Formality because we need to verify our Synopsys

hiring Enron to be our independent auditor."
- Tom Mannos of Sandia National Labs
