We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Signal integrity analysis", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Analysers provide live RF view of the spectrum from Tektronix, which we summarised at the time by saying "Unprecedented RF signal discovery capability for a broad range of digital RF applications including RFID, radiocommunications and spectrum management". A couple of weeks before, we featured the news release Software slashes nanometre design times from Synopsys: "The 2007.12 release Synopsys' PrimeTime suite has managed an average 2X runtime improvement and 33% memory reduction over the 2006.12 release".
 
In October 2007, we covered the news from Asset InterTech concerning its ScanWorks - take a look at Boundary-scan system supports Intel's IBIST which says: "IBIST leverages the boundary-scan IEEE1149.1 specification as the hardware and software communication methodology for accessing and controlling its embedded on-chip capabilities".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Agilent Technologies Europe, Signal integrity analysis explained, as well as Simulation suite bypasses networking prototypes from Ansoft Europe, and Unified electronics development system is upgraded from Altium.
