Something Is Cooking
By Anne Cirkel - 03 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 3

I’m sure you are all eager to hear a report from the DAC Executive Committee meeting last week in Portland. The important things first: The weather was great and the team cooking event – it’s hard to imagine a better team-building exercise – was a ton of fun. Nobody threw food at me and we had no accidents in the kitchen…well, except for the fact that Ramesh Karri, our security chair,... » read more

Using Real Names On The Internet
By Ed Sperling - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

Using the Internet isn't an option anymore. It's the primary medium for commercial, informational and personal communication. And increasingly, even the devices we purchase will make connections to and from the home base, regardless of whether we think that's a good idea. So now the debate begins to gain steam about whether people should be required to use their real names when registering f... » read more

Advanced Architectures And Technologies For The Development Of Wearable Devices
By Arm - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

One of the exciting new markets expected to see the biggest growth over the next few years is that of wearable devices. According to market research firm IHS, the worldwide market for wearable technology saw revenues of $8.5 billion in 2012 based on shipments of 96 million devices. The firm predicts future increases to $30 billion and 210 million by 2018. Today it is a largely embryonic market ... » read more

The Future Of Medical Device Certification: Greater Scrutiny And More Validation
By Mentor, a Siemens Business - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

Given the critical nature of the functions performed by today’s medical devices, greater scrutiny along with the need for more certifiable software is on this rise. There is more interest today in government standards such as FDA 510K and IEC 62304 for medical device software. Enhanced scrutiny from government agencies can introduce unexpected delays – or even jeopardize the commercial rele... » read more

Fueling the IoT
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

As the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] evolves, it brings along new paradigms. Some are simply reworked, relabeled, or re-branded ideas, concepts, or technologies. But some are new and novel, and will benefit from this ubiquitous, multi-billion device intelligent, uber-interconnected platform. Some of the things the IoT will drive include semiconductors, big data and crowd sourc... » read more

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss whether the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] will be secure enough, or whether it will create new security issues, with Sami Nassar, general manager of [getentity id="22499" comment="NXP Semiconductor"]; Oleg Logvinov, director for special assignments at [getentity id="22331" comment="STMicroelectronics"]; and Lawrence Loh, application e... » read more

Making Smart Grids Safe
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

There is little doubt that an intelligent power grid is not only desirable, but necessary in today’s power hungry world. As the global power grid veins its electric tentacles into the farthest reaches of the ecosystem, being able to allocate and monitor what power is needed, where and when will be the model going forward. There are a lot of issues that face the deployment of a smart grid �... » read more

IoT Standards Needed
By Ed Sperling - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

The promise of the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] is effortless communication between devices, all of which are smart enough to transmit data to the Internet directly, or through connecting hubs, and to ad hoc devices that are authorized to be added to a personal or industrial network. What's not yet clear is how that promise will be realized. Even though many devices are desig... » read more

The JTAG Connection
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

It is fairly common knowledge that hacking into today’s intelligent Internet devices is child’s play in most cases. The main reason is that the devices have little or no innate security designed in. When they do have some level of security, it is generally provisioned by software running on the host system, to which the devices are connected. But that only works with a device on the grid. O... » read more

OSI’s Model For Security
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Oct, 2014 - Comments: 0

In just six years, according to Cisco Systems, there will be 50 billion devices interconnected within the IoT universe. IDC puts that number at a whopping 212 billion. Either way, it really doesn't matter. The fact is that the vast majority will be talking to each other, autonomously, and though the cloud – a nightmare management scenario, no matter how one spins it. The implications of th... » read more
