Blog Review: June 3
By Jesse Allen - 03 Jun, 2020 - Comments: 0

Cadence's Paul McLellan takes a look at how Ethernet came to dominate wired networking and is now taking on automotive to provide the bandwidth necessary for the increasing number of sensors in modern vehicles. Mentor's Colin Walls notes the difficulty of assessing the quality of software, some key areas to pay attention to when assessing quality or trying to write quality code, and the bottom... » read more

Hardware Security For AI Accelerators
By Rambus - 03 Jun, 2020 - Comments: 0

Dedicated accelerator hardware for artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) algorithms are increasingly prevalent in data centers and endpoint devices. These accelerators handle valuable data and models, and face a growing threat landscape putting AI/ML assets at risk. Using fundamental cryptographic security techniques performed by a hardware root of trust can safeguard these as... » read more

Detect And Prevent Security Vulnerabilities In Your Hardware Root Of Trust
By Tortuga Logic - 03 Jun, 2020 - Comments: 0

Hardware is at the root of the trust chain. Software runs on chipsets in every system meaning that if the hardware itself is not secure the most advanced software-level defenses can still be circumvented. However, it is important to emphasize that analyzing hardware in isolation also does not guarantee system-level security. Composing different parts of a system together can result in vulnerabi... » read more

Computational Software
By Cadence - 03 Jun, 2020 - Comments: 0

To power the technologies and products of the future, end-application system companies are increasingly designing the full stack of their solution. Some are even designing their own semiconductors, and optimizing the end-to-end solution across chips, packages, printed circuit boards (PCBs), software, and the entire system to meet demanding market requirements. This movement is driving a converg... » read more

The Increasingly Ordinary Task Of Verifying RISC-V
By Ann Mutschler - 03 Jun, 2020 - Comments: 0

As RISC-V processor development matures and its usage in SoCs and microcontrollers grows, engineering teams are starting to look beyond the challenges of the processor core itself. So far, the majority of industry verification efforts have focused on ISA compliance to standardize the RISC-V core. Now the focus is shifting to be how to handle verification as the system grows, especially as this... » read more
