Blue Pacific Computing was founded in 1996 by Dr. Steven Watkins and Kam Wong. We are located in San Diego, California. Blue Pacific has provided ASIC and FPGA design and trainiing services to many different companies, ranging from Intel and other Fortune 500 semiconductor companies, to wireless companies like
Qualcomm, to small startups such as Innocomm and WiSpry.
We have taught Verilog, VHDL, and SystemC for the University of California at San Diego and at
companies such as Synopsys, Cadence, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, TI, Lockheed Martin,
Rockwell, Alcatel, Nortel, Mitel, Nokia, Philips, ARM and many others.
Kam has over 20 years experience in the semiconductor and wireless system
areas. He received a B.S. in Computer Engineering from UCSD and an M.S. in
Electrical and Computer Engineering from UCSB. Kam recently founded Silicon Whiteboard. See www.siliconwhiteboard.com for more

Steve has over 30 years experience in the semiconductor and wireless system
areas. He received a B.S. from the California Institute of Technology, an M.S.
in Computer Science from UCSD and a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering
from UCSD. He has written numerous technical papers and published a book through the UCSD Bookstore Press: Hardware Design for Software People in the SOC Era: Verilog, VHDL, SystemC and Matlab.
Steve is currently spending most of his time at WiSpry where he is providing ASIC and FPGA design and test expertise, and where he has developed a low-cost first-silicon verification system.
