How to deal with the growing challenge of verifying digital and analog interface IP.
Interface IP is an integral part of systems-on-chips (SoC) that include mobile, automotive, or networking applications and are primarily used for transmitting data over a physical medium between a host and device. The mixed-signal nature of the IP makes verification a challenging task, requiring special considerations for digital and analog sections. This paper describes a robust mixed-signal verification technique using the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM).

New architectures, different markets and more variables make it increasingly difficult to design and verify low-power chips.
How good are standard FPGAs for AI purposes, and how different will dedicated FPGA-based devices be from them?
Seventeen startups took in mega-rounds of $100 million or more during October, with a cumulative total of just over $3.2 billion.

Why Intel, AMD, Arm, and IBM are focusing on architectures, microarchitectures, and functional changes.
Moving large amounts of data around a system is no longer the path to success. It is too slow and consumes too much power. It is time to flip the equation.
CEO Tony Hemmelgarn talks about autonomous cars, 5G, EDA integration and the Siemens acquisition of Mentor.
Can a software engineer create hardware? It may be possible, but not in the way that existing high-level synthesis tools do it.
