Millimeter Wave: A Bridge Too Far?
By Ed Sperling - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 1

5G is here. It already is available in new mobile phones, and the infrastructure for extremely fast cellular communication is being built out at a rapid pace. The big question now is which parts of this technology will be successful, and there still is no consistency in those predictions. 5G comes in two flavors, sub-6 GHz and millimeter wave, and the sub-6 GHz version offers immediate perfo... » read more

Security Is Key When AI Meets 5G
By Tim Messegee - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

5G represents a revolution in mobile technology with performance that will rival that of wireline networks. Relative to its 4G predecessor, 5G promises 10X the data rate, 100X the efficiency, and 1000X the capacity, at 1/100th the latency. With 1Gbps speed at 1ms latency, 5G makes it possible to offer a host of real-time applications and services. Real-time is critical, because in parallel t... » read more

Automotive Industry On Course To Disruption And Evolution
By Doug Burcicki - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

Consumers expect a lot from their vehicles. We expect vehicles to serve not only as transportation, but as hubs of entertainment and connectivity that can help us manage busy lives, or relax after long days. Someday, we may even expect our cars to do the driving themselves, without any human intervention. Automotive manufacturers consistently strive to meet these expectations by delivering high... » read more

AI is transforming the world around us, creating an avenue to innovation across all sectors of the global economy. Today, AI can interact with humans through natural language; identify bank fraud and protect computer networks; drive cars around city streets; and play complex games like chess and Go. Machine-learning is offering solutions to many complex problems around us where analytical solut... » read more

Hardware Attack Surface Widening
By Ed Sperling - 06 Feb, 2020 - Comments: 0

An expanding attack surface in hardware, coupled with increasing complexity inside and outside of chips, is making it far more difficult to secure systems against a variety of new and existing types of attacks. Security experts have been warning about the growing threat for some time, but it is being made worse by the need to gather data from more places and to process it with AI/ML/DL. So e... » read more
