New Neural Processors Address Emerging Neural Networks
By Gordon Cooper - 05 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

It’s been ten years since AlexNet, a deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) model running on GPUs, displaced more traditional vision processing algorithms to win the ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Competition (ILSVRC). AlexNet, and its successors, provided significant improvements in object classification accuracy at the cost of intense computational complexity and large da... » read more

Ensuring Security By Design Is Actually Secure
By Melissa Jordan - 05 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Today’s connected systems touch nearly every part of consumers’ lives, from smart thermostats in our homes to self-driving cars on our roads. The adoption of these new devices has led to an explosion of new semiconductors and use models. But these novel conveniences also come with new risks. With vulnerabilities on the rise and the potential for remote attacks growing, product companies mus... » read more

Diagnostic Medical Ultrasound Innovation Using UltraFast Algorithms
By Subh Bhattacharya - 05 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Medical ultrasound is the most attractive among all diagnostic imaging systems due to its least-invasive nature and lack of any radiation. As medical ultrasound continues to grow in wider range of applications for its non-invasive nature and for its ability to see soft-tissue images, there is growing demand in supporting advanced imaging techniques in ultrasound beamformers, in multi-dimensiona... » read more

Simulate Rotor Hub Vortex Shedding In Helicopters
By Veena Parthan - 05 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Although helicopter aerodynamics involves the same forces that arise in airplane aerodynamics, these forces occur differently due to fluid flow dynamics across the aircraft. Helicopters take advantage of the free stream flow along a rotor blade to produce lift and thrust. In rotating systems, the rotor hub clasps the blades and connects them to the main shaft of the system. The rotor in a h... » read more

Cybersecurity: The Case For Hardware-Based Threat Detection And Mitigation
By Siemens EDA - 04 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

The requirements of cyberphysical systems place great responsibility on design teams. Their mission-critical roles in controlling mechanical systems, from aircraft though motor vehicles to industrial plants, have always called for safety-focused design. As these systems have become connected to the internet, safety has become intertwined with security. One mechanism for detecting suspicious ... » read more

Startup Funding: April 2022
By Jesse Allen - 04 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Silicon photonics holds the potential to vastly increase bandwidth in chips and systems while reducing power use — and investors are taking note. In April, one of the largest funding rounds went to a startup developing chip-to-chip optical I/O. But that wasn't all. Photonics funding showed up in AI with a photonic Tensor core, in room-temperature quantum computing, and, of course, in lidar an... » read more

Data Management Position: An Automated Approach to Intelligent PCB Design Data Management
By Cadence - 04 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

The design cycle of electronic devices produces vast amounts of data. From a top-level view, this data can be broken down into basic blocks, including software, circuit board design, mechanical design, and others. These blocks contain extensive and complex information, including the types and amounts of individual data and information files, as well as their hierarchy structure. This data and i... » read more

A New World Of Innovation
By Synopsys - 04 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

There has been a fundamental shift in product innovation. Not merely a revolution in materials or design, but a revolution of possibilities. Advanced software technologies such as artificial intelligence have given us a peek of what could be, enabled by methods to deliver the speed that turn worldchanging ideas into reality. We’ve now reached an event horizon — one where semiconductors and ... » read more

System-Level Benefits Of The Versal Platform
By AMD - 04 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Moore's Law has fueled the technological prosperity of the last 50 years, but it is generally believed now that Gordon Moore's 1965 forecast about the pace of innovation no longer holds true today. Continuing the silicon architectures of yesterday cannot meet the expanding demands of tomorrow's workloads. Frequently highlighted by today’s leaders in the field of computer architecture [Ref 1],... » read more

Blog Review: May 4
By Jesse Allen - 04 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

In a podcast, Arm's Geof Wheelwright chats with Steve Furber of the University of Manchester and Christian Mayr of Technische Universität Dresden about spiking neural networks and the SpiNNaker project to build a platform for realistic real-time models of brain functions. Synopsys' Licinio Sousa checks out how the MIPI protocol enables the connectivity needed for sensor fusion and increasin... » read more
