10Base-T1S Ethernet And The Use Of MACsec For Link Security


10Base-T1S (henceforth in this blog referred to as T1S) is a relatively new standard for a 10Mbit/s single-pair Ethernet over an unshielded, single-twisted pair that was introduced with the IEEE 802.3cg-2019 specification. It brings Ethernet technology into the low-cost, edge applications space, enabling connection of “edge nodes” (remote sensors, actuators, light controls, etc.) to a “he... » read more

Shrinking LLMs With Self-Compression


Language models are becoming ever larger, making on-device inference slow and energy-intensive. A direct and surprisingly effective remedy is to prune complete channels whose contribution to the task is negligible. Our earlier work introduced a training-time procedure – Self-Compression [1, 4] – that lets back-propagation decide the bit-width of every channel, so unhelpful ones fade away. T... » read more

Driving The Future: How Rust And Virtual ECUs Are Transforming AUTOSAR Classic Automotive Software


By Nicolas Amringer and Stefan Pruisken The landscape of automotive software is undergoing significant transformation, driven by growing system complexity, stringent safety standards, and the need for streamlined development cycles. Virtual ECUs (vECUs) have become indispensable for accelerating both development and validation processes. In this context, the adoption of Rust within AUTOSAR C... » read more

Unlocking The Potential Of Ultra-Wideband Radar Technology


Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a short-range wireless communication technology that was once intended for military applications. In 2002, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) exempted its license and made it available for public use. Since then, UWB technology has evolved over time, transforming the way devices interact by offering secure ranging and precision sensing capabilities. With... » read more

3D-IC Stress Analysis


The semiconductor industry is undergoing a transformation as 3D integrated circuits (ICs) and heterogeneous packaging become mainstream. With these advances comes the promise of higher functional density, a smaller footprint and enhanced system performance. However, these same innovations introduce new mechanical stressors within complex assemblies, posing novel reliability risks across the dev... » read more
