Pockets of economic uncertainty remain, but 2012 is shaping up to be a better year for CAD than 2011. In JPR’s 2012 CAD Report, we put the number of CAD users for 2011 at just over 5 million. That means over 5 million sets of CAD were bought or upgraded in 2011. In 2011 we estimated there were 19.3 million seats of CAD in active use worldwide. Revenues from CAD software will reach $7 billion in 2012.

Photonic AI Processors Report
(Buyer will receive $500 coupon, good for 90 days, toward any other JPR AIP report)
Jon Peddie Research’s Photonic AI Processors report is a supply-side report; it covers the seven companies building photonic compute processors.
The Photonic AI Processors report defines photonic AI processors and how they are used. It
outlines the two distinct product categories that exist: photonic compute processors, where
light performs the arithmetic, and photonic interconnects, where light moves data between
conventional chips and replaces copper wires.
The report also contains information about the companies in this segment and their
technology and products.
While the companies covered in the main body of this report focus on classical photonic AI acceleration (matrix multiplication, inference, HPC), a distinct set of players is building photonic quantum computers that use single photons as qubits and linear optical elements to implement quantum gates and entanglement.
