YEREVAN, OCTOBER 23, NOYAN TAPAN. Synopsys company (US), the world
leader in electronic automated design, has introduced the principle of
"green design" aimed at reduction of global warming. Integral chips
designed by this principle help reduce losses of consumed electric
current, as a result of which the atmosphere warms less.

Gayane Markosian, PR officer of Synopsys Armenia CJSC – the Armenian
subsidiary of Synopsys, told NT correspondent that software and
integral chips developed jointly by Synopsys and its partners are
designed under the slogan "Engineers Will Save the World".

and Synopsys Armenia’s CEO, recently gave lectures on the "green
design" principles at the State Engineering University of Armenia
(SEUA), Yerevan State University, the Russian-Armenian (Slavonic)
University and the National Academy of Sciences of the RA.

According to G. Markosian, by the October 19 decision of the SEUA
Scientific Board, Rich Goldman was awarded title of honorary doctor
in recognition of his significant contribution to the development
of an "industry-university" efficient educational model at SEUA, and
for his series of lectures on modern topics of microelectronics for
SEUA’s teaching staff, post-graduate students, masters and students.
