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

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

Research Bits: May 3
By Jesse Allen - 03 May, 2022 - Comments: 0

Fingerprinting quantum noise Scientists from the University of Chicago and Purdue University propose a different method of understanding the effect of noise in quantum computers. Instead of trying to measure it directly, they created a 'fingerprint' of how the noise impacts a program run on the computer. “We wondered if there was a way to work with the noise, instead of against it,” sai... » read more
