Paris, France - July 2nd 2007.-- 01consulting studies the European Electronic Design Automation market, under a new report released today.

With a market sized at �780 million, up nearly 11% from the �700 million in 2005 (itself up 7% from 2004), the Electronic Design Automation market in Europe represents around one fifth of the worldwide EDA market.

The European EDA market is dominated as is the global market by the so called Big Three: Cadence Design Systems, Mentor Graphics Inc and Synopsys, Inc. However, unlike its 3rd position in the worldwide ranking, Mentor Graphics is ranked 2nd in Europe in 2006, where it generates 28% of its worldwide business.

Despite most worldwide vendors’ headquarters are based in the US, Europe is base for two global vendors in the Semiconductor IP arena, namely ARM the global leader and Imagination Technologies.

Agilent EEsof, Ansoft, ARM, Cadence Design System, Imagination Technologies, Magma Design Automation, Mentor Graphics, Rambus, Synopsys, Synplicity, The Mathworks, and Zuken are studied in this report with their 2006 numbers in Europe for most of them. Moreover, around 40 European based EDA vendors are identified by name and country. Top studied vendors are ranked considering both their total revenue, as well as their software only revenue.

With over 50 tables and graphs, in a 56 pages document, this report provides a quantitative and qualitative picture of the market: market size, trend and vendors positions in each of the EDA product and services categories as well as in main European regions/countries: UK, Germany, France, Scandinavia and Italy
