Summary: Schedule predictability is the art and science of determining the completion date for your semiconductor IC project, based on a statistical model, validated across multiple designs.

When you plan a project, you are working with incomplete information. Organizational changes, specification changes, technical challenges and more conspire to make it difficult to accurately predict when your new product will be ready.

Schedule predictability is the art and science of determining the completion date for your project, based on a statistical model, validated across multiple designs. The key ingredients are your design’s complexity, coupled with your resource plan. With these two inputs, Numetrics can significantly improve the accuracy of your schedule predictions. One customer went from consistent overruns to accuracy within a few percent on the first designs they modeled in the Numetrics toolset.

How is this possible? The core is the Numetrics ability:

• To understand which factors drive complexity
• To create a normalized characterization of your design that allows comparison with others.

When we compare your proposed design with historical productivity and schedule information, we can statistically determine the expected schedule for your new project. The accuracy of the model is enhanced by our industry database of over 1200 designs, coupled with specific information from your company’s historical project record.

The result is a robust, realistic prediction of the schedule, based on

• Complexity
• Resource availability and
• Historical data.

The value is a greatly enhanced ability to meet your market windows, time and time again.
