Tabula
Rob Graham has extensive work experience in the field of software engineering. Rob started their career in 1985 as a Senior Software Engineer at GTE Laboratories and later became one of the co-founders of Silc Technologies, Inc. At GTE Laboratories, they worked on graph partitioning, schematic generator, and logic synthesis. In 1991, they joined Digital Equipment Corp. as a Principal Software Engineer, where they supported the Alpha microprocessor design team by working on sequential mapping, buffering algorithms, and delay optimization. In 1993, they moved to Synopsys as a Senior Software Engineer and later became the R&D Manager of the ECO Compiler product. At Synopsys, they designed and implemented algorithms for logic optimization, introduced and enhanced formal verification techniques, and received a patent for digital circuitry verification. In 1998, they joined Synplicity as a Senior Staff Software Engineer, where they continued to work on logic optimization algorithms. Rob then returned to Synopsys in 2004 as a Principal Software Engineer, focusing on physical synthesis optimization and buffering for IC Compiler. Most recently, since 2012, they have been working at Tabula as a Principal Software Engineer, where they have developed algorithms, supported simulation-based verification techniques, and implemented formal verification to eliminate bugs.
Rob Graham earned a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1980. Rob then went on to pursue a Master's Degree in Computer Science from the same university, completing their studies in 1985.

Tabula
Tabula is a privately held fabless semiconductor company developing 3-D Programmable Logic Devices. Its ABAX family of 3PLDs, based on Tabula’s patented Spacetime architecture, sets new density, performance, and affordability benchmarks for programmable logic, memory, and signal processing. Headquartered in Santa Clara, California, Tabula has assembled a leadership team consisting of industry veterans and successful entrepreneurs. The company is backed by top-tier investors with a long-term view toward enduring market leadership. Our Company name, Tabula, is derived from the Latin Tabula Rasa, which means “blank slate”. We have chosen the name “Tabula” because our devices are, in effect, “blank slates” for turning ideas into production silicon. In addition, we have tried to take a fresh, “blank slate” approach in creating the next stage of custom logic design. Tabula’s mission is to provide customers with the best path from ideas to production silicon. Our technology is a result of a bold re-thinking of the entire process of custom hardware design, verification, and production. The creativity of our engineering team has resulted in over 150 patents pending in EDA, IC design, architecture, and advanced process technology. While our technology is disruptive in the industry, it is not disruptive to our customer’s design practices. The Tabula team consists of seasoned industry veterans who know how to balance innovation with practical market requirements. To accomplish this we are building a company geared for enduring leadership in technology, product, marketing and sales, as well as operations and finance. Every member of the Tabula team contributes their time and talents toward the construction of a great company.
