  OCP
In 2008 Vivante became a member of the OCP International Partnership (OCP-IP). OCP-IP is a non-profit semiconductor industry consortium formed to administer the support, promotion and enhancement of the Open Core Protocol (OCP) specification. OCP is the only fully supported, openly licensed, complete interface socket for intellectual property (IP) cores. OCP addresses design, verification and testing issues common to IP core reuse in "plug-and-play" system-on-chip (SOC) products. Additional information is available at www.ocpip.org.
 
 
  MIPS
In 2008 Vivante joined the MIPS Alliance Program to expand the market for its graphics IP cores to include designers who use MIPS cores. Vivante optimized its HD Visual RealityTM and Mobile Visual RealityTM line of 2D and 2D/3D graphics processor IP solutions for integration in designs using the MIPS32® 24K® and MIPS32® 24KE™ cores, which are widely used in media server, DVD, set-top box and mobile solutions.
