The Future Of Technology: Generative AI In China


China's investment in Gen-AI is projected to surge with an estimated 86% CAGR over the next five years. This growth is driven by a focus on technological self-sufficiency, from applications to chips, and a strong emphasis on locally developed technology. Key areas of development include: AI Chip Development: Addressing the need for powerful AI infrastructure. Dataset Localization: S... » read more

Advancing AI At The IoT Edge


In a highly connected world, there is a need for more intelligent and secure computation locally and preferably on the very devices that capture data, whether it be raw or compressed video, images, or voice. End markets continue to expect compute costs to trend down, at a time when computation demands are increasing, as is evident from recently popularized AI paradigms such as large language mo... » read more

Tools Needed To Track, Catalog Hardware Vulnerabilities


Monitoring for cyberattacks is a key component of hardware-based security, but what happens afterward is equally important. Logging and cataloging identified hardware vulnerabilities to ensure they are not repeated is essential for security. In fact, thousands of weak points have been identified as part of the chip design process, and even posted publicly online. Nevertheless, many companies... » read more

Post-Quantum Cryptography: Safeguarding The Future Of Digital Security


As technological advancements surge forward, the specter of quantum computing looms ever larger. While the promise of quantum computers holds the potential to revolutionize fields like weather forecasting, drug discovery, and fundamental physics, it also harbors a significant threat to our current cryptographic systems. The risk is not just a future concern; any sensitive data intercepted today... » read more

Radar, AI, And Increasing Autonomy Are Redefining Auto IC Designs


Increasing levels of autonomy in vehicles are fundamentally changing which technologies are chosen, how they are used and interact with each other, and how they will evolve throughout a vehicle's lifetime. Entire vehicle architectures are being reshaped continuously to enable the application of AI across a broad swath of functions, prompting increasing investment into technologies that were ... » read more

Where Cryptography Is Headed


Reports began surfacing in October that Chinese researchers used a quantum computer to crack military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. Those reports turned out to be wrong, but that did little to dampen concerns about what would happen if it was true. The looming threat of quantum computers breaking today's encryption, and the stockpiling of encrypted data in preparation for a time when it can ... » read more
