Cloud native EDA tools & pre-optimized hardware platforms
In cutting edge engineering fields today, 22% of professionals are women, according to the . But although the number of women professionals in these fields is still relatively small, . It was a woman who founded scientific computing. And women were the first electronic computing programmers. They have been integral to launching the first flight crews into space as well as the ones that have come after, and they have helped bring about the atomic age. Ada Lovelace, the ENIAC programmers, Katherine Johnson, the Calutron girls, Grace Hopper, Edith Clarke. Do these legends sound familiar? If you don’t know them, you should. Their achievements and the achievements of so many others in history are worthy of our recognition and celebration.
