Group 1 - The core viewpoint is that there may still be room for negotiation regarding the EDA ban, as the current policy seems too extreme and unexpected [1] - Domestic EDA companies have made significant progress in covering various chip design, verification, and production scenarios, but there are still many bugs in their tools [2] - The notion that EDA bans will not affect many companies due to the use of pirated licenses is incorrect, as EDA tools are closely tied to foundry process design kits (PDK), which frequently update and validate licenses [3] Group 2 - Common strategies to cope with EDA tool shortages include registering overseas companies to purchase software and chips, establishing offshore R&D centers in regions with looser restrictions, and collaborating with foreign companies for production [7] - The best approach for acquiring IP is to buy it outright; if that is not feasible, companies must still rely on overseas sources [5]
