Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By SE Staff - 06 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

This was a tough week for cybersecurity. Chinese researchers claim to have figured out a way to crack some of the most advanced security algorithms with only 372 physical qubits, versus millions of qubits as previously theorized. This can be used to both speed up quantum decryption and to create large integers that can withstand future attacks. If it proves out, that approach would significantl... » read more

Architecting Hardware Protection For Data At Rest, In Motion, And In Use
By Bart Stevens - 05 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Planning the security architecture for any device begins with the security threat model. The threat model describes the types of attacks that the device or application may face and needs to be protected against. It is based on what attackers can do, what level of control they have over the product (i.e., remote, or direct access), and how much money and effort they are willing and able to spend... » read more

Shifting Toward Software-Defined Vehicles
By John Koon - 05 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Apple reportedly is developing a software-defined vehicle. But so are Renault, Hyundai, General Motors, and just about everyone else. Some of the benefits of SDVs include increased comfort, convenience, safety, reliability, and remote software and firmware updates. Preventive and predictive maintenance, and remote diagnostics, can be done more conveniently over the air, while vehicle behavio... » read more

Integrating 16nm FPGA Into 28/22nm SoC Without Losing Speed Or Flexibility
By Geoff Tate - 05 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

Systems companies like FPGA because it gives parallel processing performance that can outdo processors for many workloads and because it can be reconfigured when standards, algorithms, protocols or customer requirements change. But FPGAs are big, burn a lot of power and are expensive. Customers would like to integrate them into their adjacent SoC if possible. Dozens of customers are now u... » read more

Formal Verification Of AI Processor Datapaths In Automotive Applications
By Laureano Carrasco - 05 Jan, 2023 - Comments: 0

There aren’t many electronic applications that require correctness, safety, and security more than automobiles and other road vehicles. Owners rely on their cars operating properly and reliably at all times. The very lives of drivers, passengers, and those nearby are at risk if a vehicle misbehaves. The situation grows more serious with every innovation in automotive electronics. With a mo... » read more
