Drill Down: Embedded NVM Technology
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

Many of the next-generation devices that will be seen on the IoT/E will have power, footprint, and electronic constraints as never before. Electronic flash memories (eFLASH), and their derivatives are seen as a realistic solution to many of these design constraints for small form factor and simple IoE devices. “NVM will be very important for the IoE from the perspective of saving power," ... » read more

One-on-One: Smarter Architectures
By Ed Sperling - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

Edward Lee, distinguished professor of electrical engineering and computer science professor at the [getentity id="22165" comment="UC Berkeley"], sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about what is needed to maximize the usefulness of the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] and how our perceptions need to shift to take advantage of this technology. What follows are excerpts o... » read more

Wireless Technologies For The IoE
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

It's generally understood the [getkc id="76" kc_name="Internet of Everything"] eventually will be the interconnect platform of all things, wireless and wireline. The utopian scenario is to have a common platform, with standardized protocols, which everyone builds to. Will that happen? Perhaps, but for a time, especially while the IoE evolves, that won’t be the case. Count on the early IoE bei... » read more

The Case Against 8051
By Emerson Hsiao - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 1

With the rise of Internet of things, sensors controlled by embedded processors are being installed in homes, offices, factories, and metropolitan infrastructure, power grids, and just about everything else. Because these intelligent IoT devices are deployed in large quantities everywhere, their cost must be very low compared with the mobile devices everyone carries with them every day. Besides ... » read more

IPsec Security In IPv6
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

IPv6 is starting to show up in around the Internet. Adoption is slow, but with the magic number of 4 billion- plus IPv4 addresses about to be reached, IPv6 will see a much faster pace of adoption as the IoE gains momentum. There is a lot of excitement about all the enhancements within IPv6. Some even claim it is the answer to Internet security. But so far it has not lived up to that promise.... » read more

The Electrifying Side Of AUTOSAR
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

This paper describes a meta-model that covers specific portions of software-oriented AUTOSAR development methodology using the ECU Resource Template. Prior to actual software development, the standardized and open AUTOSAR meta-model can be used to develop an architecture. The ECU Resource Template is particularly well suited for such tasks, because it opens up the actual software-oriented AU... » read more

IoT Is For Chickens
By Ann Mutschler - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 1

As a backyard chicken enthusiast in my spare time, I was pleasantly surprised to find that other technology-minded folks are interested in chickens too. A simple Internet search revealed a ‘Chicken Tender’ project recently presented at the Intel IoT Roadshow in Seattle that I wish were already commercialized! This ingenious system tracks and monitors egg laying for individual chickens in... » read more

First Time Success and Cost Control
By Brian Bailey - 01 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

First time success has been the ultimate goal for semiconductor companies due to escalating mask costs, as well as a guiding objective for the development of EDA tools, especially in the systems and verification space. These pressures are magnified for the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] (IoT), especially the edge devices. Have system-level tools been able to contribute to first ti... » read more
