Welcome to the birth of a new blog on EDACafé, “The Breker Trekker” from Breker Verification Systems. The term “Trekker” refers to our main product, TrekSoC, and its underlying Trek engine technology. We also mean to suggest “trek” as in a long journey with some challenges and many rewards along the way, appropriate for a small software company still early in our own journey. If you happen to be a Star Trek fan and identify yourself as a trekker, then by all means please become a fan of Breker, too.
Let me start by introducing myself, Tom Anderson, since I’ll be writing the majority of the blog posts. You can read a brief bio just above; I’ve been in electronic design automation (EDA) marketing for about 10 years after working in applications, CAD management, design management, and ASIC design. I joined Breker early last year (2012) as TrekSoC was poised to go from a product used by a small set of early adopters to a mainstream technology. That journey is underway now and I’m having great fun helping to make it happen.
