 PROFILE
Please stop shouting "Avant." Avant! (pronounced ah-VAHN-tee) develops design automation software for creating, simulating, and verifying the physical layout of integrated circuits, including those using deep-submicron (less than 0.5 micron), very-deep-submicron (less than 0.35 micron), and ultra-deep-submicron (less than 0.1 micron) production parameters. Securities and patent infringement lawsuits have cut into Avant!'s profits for years. In 2001 Avant! and several of its executives pleaded no contest to criminal charges in a half-decade-long code theft suit by rival Cadence Design Systems, and Avant! was ordered to pay $195 million in restitution and $27 million in fines. Cadence's civil suit is still pending.
