Building Security into the Smart Home Devices with a Hardware Root of Trust
By Nisha Amshul - 11 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 1

The growth in the semiconductor industry over the past years has been driven heavily by the storage and compute needs on smartphones, computers, servers and data centers. These conventional drivers are set to change. New-age technologies like big data, artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) will fuel the demand for the future growth in semiconductors. Not only is IoT assi... » read more

Five steps to successful threat modeling
By Suresh Marisetty - 11 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

The Internet of Things (IoT) is changing the way we interact with the world around us. Over the next few years, billions more connected devices will enable us to drive efficiency, boost productivity, and enhance comfort and convenience in our personal and professional lives. And we’re not the only ones to see the potential of this market. IoT devices are the target of increasingly sophisti... » read more

Will Cowboys Or Collaborators Shape The Self-Driving Future?
By Andrew Macleod - 06 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

You may have noticed the bloom is ever so slightly off the autonomous vehicle rose. This is likely due to some combination of a generalized malaise and growing cynicism directed at Silicon Valley in general (where of course much work on AVs continues apace) and a growing list of highly publicized self-driving incidents that surely make PR teams groan. Exhibit A from this week was the California... » read more

Dodging The Next Generation Of Car Thieves
By Mike Borza - 06 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 1

The complexity of vehicle electronics is growing and brings with it more opportunities for hackers to penetrate the car’s defenses. More connections bring in multiple network topologies, which may or may not be secure. As they are all intertwined and interconnected, any connection to get into the vehicle’s electronics is a potential point of attack for hackers. For example, jamming RFID sig... » read more

High Neural Inferencing Throughput At Batch=1
By Geoff Tate - 06 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

Microsoft presented the following slide as part of their Brainwave presentation at Hot Chips this summer: In existing inferencing solutions, high throughput (and high % utilization of the hardware) is possible for large batch sizes: this means that instead of processing say one image at a time, the inferencing engine processes say 10 or 50 images in parallel. This minimizes the number of... » read more

Affordable Design With Wireless Microcontrollers
By Sree Durbha - 06 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

Today, we are at the peak of technology product availability with the releases of the new iPhone models, Alexa-enabled devices, and more. In the coming days, there will be numerous international consumer OEMs preparing new offerings as we approach the holiday selling season. Along with the smartphones, voice assistant enabled smart speakers and deep learning wireless security cameras, many devi... » read more

Establishing the Root of Trust for the Internet of Things
By Nisha Amshul - 12 Nov, 2018 - Comments: 0

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a quickly emerging ecosystem of applications, products and services in which both large and small devices connect to the internet. These new IoT devices will be embedded into diverse applications ranging from home security and home automation to manufacturing—and more. Protecting the data collected from these dispersed IoT endpoints presents a myriad of challen... » read more

Research: The Heart and Soul of DAC
By Harry Foster - 12 Nov, 2018 - Comments: 0

Research is the very heart and soul of the Design Automation Conference (DAC). In fact, one could easily argue that our industry as we know it today would not exist if not for the fundamental research that has been published at DAC for over five decades, as well as many of its sister conferences (e.g., DATE, ICCAD, etc.) This year I am honored to have been selected to serve as the 56th DAC T... » read more

It’s Time For Companies To Embrace IP Management
By Ranjit Adhikary - 12 Nov, 2018 - Comments: 0

Everything is a rat race these days. You can see everyone scurrying around trying to be ahead of everyone else. It is the same wherever you look, be it at schools, at work, at the grocery store, on the roads. Semiconductor companies – big and small alike – are more intent than ever on trying to be the first to get their SoCs into the market. Some are bound by cultures and traditions on ... » read more

Automakers Gear Up For Autonomy
By Ann Mutschler - 01 Nov, 2018 - Comments: 0

Even though it’s going to be a number of years before autonomous cars are everywhere, the technology to make it happen is already rolling out in stages, giving the automotive ecosystem a chance to gear up as development happens. From electronic fleet management systems, which are already prevalent in semi trucks today, to more sophistication in passenger vehicle driver assistance features, it... » read more
