Week 43: Get Ready For A Sizzling DAC Pavilion
By Anne Cirkel - 03 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

We are having some fantastic spring weather here in Oregon. Check out the little video clip of my crazy dog Diesel at the Oregon Coast shot a few weeks back. Mind you, there is no ball in that chucker he’s dancing around for. That’s because, Kismet, my other dog you can see in the foreground, caught the ball and is bringing it to me, occasionally looking back over her shoulder at her somewh... » read more

Making It Differently
By Ed Sperling - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

Anyone who hasn't bought into the IoT/E as a fundamental shift in electronics should check out what's happening in China. All appliances and electronics being developed for the home market are now being sold as smart-ready. This is a market that comprises roughly one-fifth (19.4% to be exact) of the world's population. In the future, whether or not you hook up a new washing machine or TV to ... » read more

Will Wearables Work Well Enough?

By Ed Sperling & Ann Steffora Mutschler The rollout of the Apple Watch later this month has reset expectations for the wearable electronics market, just as early implementations of the Pebble, Fitbit and Google Glass helped raise awareness about a new level of portability and connectivity. Early projections are for strong sales, which in turn will propel a new level of connectedness for the ... » read more

Drill Down: Embedded NVM Technology
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

Many of the next-generation devices that will be seen on the IoT/E will have power, footprint, and electronic constraints as never before. Electronic flash memories (eFLASH), and their derivatives are seen as a realistic solution to many of these design constraints for small form factor and simple IoE devices. “NVM will be very important for the IoE from the perspective of saving power," ... » read more

IPsec Security In IPv6
By Ernest Worthman - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

IPv6 is starting to show up in around the Internet. Adoption is slow, but with the magic number of 4 billion- plus IPv4 addresses about to be reached, IPv6 will see a much faster pace of adoption as the IoE gains momentum. There is a lot of excitement about all the enhancements within IPv6. Some even claim it is the answer to Internet security. But so far it has not lived up to that promise.... » read more

IoT Is For Chickens
By Ann Mutschler - 02 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 1

As a backyard chicken enthusiast in my spare time, I was pleasantly surprised to find that other technology-minded folks are interested in chickens too. A simple Internet search revealed a ‘Chicken Tender’ project recently presented at the Intel IoT Roadshow in Seattle that I wish were already commercialized! This ingenious system tracks and monitors egg laying for individual chickens in... » read more

First Time Success and Cost Control
By Brian Bailey - 01 Apr, 2015 - Comments: 0

First time success has been the ultimate goal for semiconductor companies due to escalating mask costs, as well as a guiding objective for the development of EDA tools, especially in the systems and verification space. These pressures are magnified for the [getkc id="76" comment="Internet of Things"] (IoT), especially the edge devices. Have system-level tools been able to contribute to first ti... » read more

Playing With Bubbles
By Ed Sperling - 26 Mar, 2015 - Comments: 0

The first is in the social media world, where there simply are too many sites for a fixed population of users. Much has been written about this trend, including in this blog, and the big question is whether there is enough new business in new markets such as the IoT to soften the landing. The IoT has a long way to go, and a long way to grow. That growth will propel everything from the desig... » read more
